John McCain is shown deep kissing Jerry farwell , George W Bush , Huckabe, and Rev. Senior Frog ,all without a immune system, and no one says a thing. Obama has an old tape of his minister and Fox TV goes to the moon.

I’m sorry. I like the drawing and all, but think the sentiment is mostly just bullshit. It just feels like ZERO actual thought went into this. Not funny (and not because I’m sensitive about this issue either).

Douglas, scurrying about to find anything the Clintons did to make the world a better place cites, of all places, the Macedonia region. Some info for Clinton worshippers:

“In short order, at least 170,000 Serbs were driven from their homes or killed. While France, Russia, and Great Britain condemned the offensive, Clinton praised it, saying he was “hopeful Croatia’s offensive will turn out to be something that will give us an avenue to a quick diplomatic solution.”

“...the First Lady’s top concerns… were children’s issues, health care, and foster-care and adoption policies..... Now the former First Lady claims at least a share of the credit for a wide range of the Clinton Administration’s signature accomplishments, both domestic and overseas.....

“Mrs. Clinton ... was of invaluable help, both in the fashioning and the shaping of the program and also as a clear advocate.”

THE BOTTOM LINE: The record suggests Clinton did indeed lobby for children’s health coverage but that many others were responsible as well. And it also shows that her husband nearly killed the idea before it ever got off the ground.....

When Clinton arrived in the middle of the situation in that May, diplomats on the ground expected an ineffectual high-profile visit. But they were wrong. “She was quite at ease and professional,” says a diplomat who served in the Macedonian capital, Skopje, at the time. Clinton visited refugees in camps on the border and held talks with the Macedonian leadership.

When the Prime Minister complained about American companies terminating textile contracts with local firms, Clinton promised to urge the businesses to change course. Five weeks after her trip, Clinton returned to the country with a pledge from Liz Claiborne to support textile manufacturing there.

THE BOTTOM LINE: In the case of Macedonia, Clinton engaged in personal diplomacy that brought about change.... http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/

Burn!

Quite possibly the only image I’ve ever laughed at on TD.
