Clinton's speech.Follow

I'm liekly the only one who actually wathed the whole thing, but man, that guy is absolutley the best poltician of his generation hands down. He's going to make a great SCOTUS justice.

Fluff and no substance will get you far as long as you have charm.


So will being a Rhodes Scholar, having comprehensive understanding of polcitical issues, leading the US through the greatest economic expantion in history and having charm.

except for all those last minute pardons..nod nod wink wink


Every outgoing President does that, it's par for the course. Ford pardoning Nixon was the worst example of that sort of thing.

Smashed



No they don't...I challenge you to compare the list of pardons from clinton and stack them up next to the last 50years of presidential pardons combined.

Varus

Edit that to 'the last quarter of the 20th century' and you'll get agreement out of me.

Most of Clinton's appeal is that of a good ole boy who is a friendly drunk.

He got caught with his pants down and spent the rest of his time in office dealing with people ranting about it. That made him a lot more careful and he walked the middle of the political road for most of his time in office. Since that's where many of us live, of course he was popular.

If he'd spent enough to keep our military stockpiles up, I'd have liked him a lot more.

The freindly drunk who went to Harvard and Oxford on scholarships.

Whatever.

Again, whatever. He probably didn't plan on unilaterally starting a war with a country against the better judgement of the rest of the world or something crazy like that.

Clinton pardoned 395 people, about average for an outgoing President.

Um, yes, he started a war unilaterally. I think it fairly unlikely that any of the other "coalition" "partners" would have invaded as a group without the US, don't you?

I dunno, smash, I'm pretty sure that the nation of Palau was gearing up to go in regardless of what the US did.

Great politician yes Clinton is/was a great politician. His Leadership is at best questionable.

His Leadership is at best questionable.


Yeah, it's horrible to lead a country to the height of it's power and influence in the course of it's history in the world.

Who wants that?

Can't believe I just read this. What you stated is what Repulicans are strictly against. They want people to fully succeed but do it on your own without the handouts of others. You appreciate things more if you work for them more than if they were handed to you.

There are misconceptions and stereotypes with both parties. Don't fall for them.

Hahahahah.

Wait, laughing so hard I might **** myself.

The party who's stated goals are to keep wealth in the hands of the wealthy is the party who wants people to work instead of getting handouts.

Priceless!

Oh indeed. Do you ever take the act on the road? You could make good money speaking at liberal fundraisers.

It's pretty easy to "lead" a country to the heights of economic prosperity when all you have to do is hold the tiller straight and let the good work that 12 years of correct thinking leadership put in place run its course.
