Clinton Sick of Rove’s B.S.Posted on Sep 19, 2006The Huffington Post has a nice roundup of Bill Clinton gems gleaned from a massive New Yorker piece by David Remnick. After spending some quality time with the former president, Remnick was able to extract some surprisingly frank comments, including: “I am sick of Karl Rove’s bulls--t.”

oh lance. just what we need. more people to kiss right wing ass while masquerading as progressives. the war happened because people like you were too spineless to stand with bill clinton when he tried to create a more progressive government. you were more than likely jumping on the “bash gore” bandwagon that was shiek amongst you phoney liberal-types back in 2000. i hope you are happy with all of the blood and death wrought because you guys were such wuss-asses when it came to taking on the right wing.

Lance, superb reply.
Remember there were also letters he received from PNAC advocating the invasion of Iraq years beforehand too. Signatories on those letters became part of the Repub. Admin!
I guess he forgot about those.....or maybe he doesn’t like living with guilt.......?
I think that in the post Bush era Clinton’s private adulterations were put in context and now many Americans regret their earlier vitriol against him. Even worse, Bush is SO bad that people are putting Clinton on a pedestal that he doesn’t deserve. He lied once, he’s a politician and he’ll lie again. However, I agree, Clinton is one of the better Presidents in recent years.

You left out Clinton’s best quote in the article: “You have to bloom where you’re planted.”

MISTAKE: Are the people responsible for this government that leads us to ruin in a position to make mistakes.
Is there a system in place to check the facts and balance the consolidation of power?
Could there be a flaw in the system that allowed for this and continues to allow other tragedys to happen?
Or is the flaw engineered.

Dear Bill:
If you voted for the authorization, you voted for the war. Sorry, but that’s how it worked. Anyone who didn’t believe in December 2002, after months of op ed pieces talking about the “coming war in Iraq,” and after seeing over a year Bush and his contempt for diplomacy, the UN, and any US obligation to any treaty...anyone who didn’t believe that Bush was going to attack Iraq was a fucking moron.
And by the way - YOU...that’s Bill Clinton - was stating as recently as six months ago that Bush “had to do what he did.”
Frnakly, I’m sick and tired of Bill Clinton’s bullshit. I voted for the sonofabitch twice and I’d vote for him again, but man...sometimes the guy is a ton of bullshit packed in a quarter ton pickup.
Go away, Bill.
