Scott C. Smith (CounterBias): Everyone Loves Bill (Clinton)
"I think it’s safe to say that most conservatives despise Bill Clinton. They really hate the man, and even now, years after he left office, conservatives still find time to bash Bill Clinton. Or Hillary. Or both.

I suppose conservatives are a little bored: they have the White House and are the majority in Congress. Plus, conservative pundits dominate talk radio, and they also have a strong presence on cable news. So conservatives have it pretty good. Yet they still have this need, or desire, to bash liberals and/or John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, and the Clintons. Isn’t time to let some of this anger go?"

2. I am growing weary of Clinton and Clintonistas
I wish they'd all sit down and hush for awhile. Hillary as a one term Senator does not need to run in 08 either.

I thought the Clintons were the greatest, at one time. But they seem to be selling out a lot lately. The final straw is that a lotof the ABD stuff is from these folks. James Carville, Paul Begala, Joe (mentum) Lieberman ...

3. Agree 100 percent
I supported the Clintons whole-heartedly through two terms ... even when it looked like he was failing to live up to many of the things he promised or the positions he took. That's just the world of politics, I reasoned, ya win some and ya lose some.

But now it seems like Clinton never met a position he didn't like, as long as it provided an expedient route to his own goals.

I have no respect left for either of the "say-anything-you-want-to-hear-but-do-whatever-is-most-personally-expedient" Clintons. They've had their time in the limelight and provided an amusing little circus sideshow of dysfunction. Now it's time for them to toddle off to their rockers until tradition requires they be brought out, dusted off and allowed to wave at crowd.

4. "we're only in it for the money"
Clinotns grabbed their loot and now become part of the problem.I went from dean to clark but still like dean as long as he avoids hangin with the skull & bones gang..I would like Clark in 08..Shillery and Zell are only 2 Dems who voted against Veterans benefits in Dec.
I really don't like the bushevik/clintonista comraderie..but I don't like Yal U and its grib on D.C. Dean is a Yalie which to me means caution...
