This man cannot be trusted
"Well, the first thing she intends to do, because you can do this without passing a bill, the first thing she intends to do is to send me and former President Bush and a number of other people around the world to tell them that America is open for business and cooperation again," Clinton said in response to a question from a supporter about what his wife's "number one priority" would be as president.

If we elect Hillary she will send Bush sr. around the world to speak in our name. Did we already forget about Iraqgate ? ...Bill covered for Bush sr. ..swept it all under the rug.

Hillary wants to restore trust in America by sending a Bush around the world to explain ourselves ?..no thanks.

3. Bush Sr. immediately issued a statement putting the kibosh on Clinton's
statement about Hillary enlisting Sr. to be some sort of ambassador. That's a non- issue.

5. The issue is
that Hillary WANTED Bush sr. to go around the world and speak in our name.

This is unacceptable.

7. HILLARY didn't say that -- BILL did. And I think it was another loose cannon
statement from him.

12. Bill said
"what she intends to do"

The issue was discussed by the both of them.

18. Okay - then I'm in agreement with you.
I felt that way about them anyway, but thought this was another Bill running off at the mouth, and that she shouldn't be held responsible for it. But if they'd discussed it, I change my opinion.

Not that I didn't believe she WOULD, by the way. :7

4. Yalies all.
Bill thinks they've let him into the elites club. It's a trick, Bill. I'll bet they laugh at you with their S&B member pals.

9. It's the Bush-Clinton dynasty
Isn't 28 years of this shit enough? Seriously.

When adults in their 40's can say they have never seen a general election ballot without "Bush" or "Clinton" on it, how can anybody continue to believe that there isn't something really WRONG with this country?

10. Well, let's see...
Bill loves Poppy. Hillary loves Colin Powell. Obama loves Reagan.

All of them kiss up to Republican creeps and screw over the Dem base.

Frankly, I don't like how close they are either but from what I've read this is not really true.

14. If he can't be trusted because of this, then no past presidents can
All past presidents have that unwritten rule where they show respect to one another. Bill just gets more attention about it because of Junior being in the picture with his old man, Poppy.

16. She can show her respect
without sending him around the world to speak in our name.

20. What will the Obamabots say if the empty suit
should be elected president and have to "mingle" with past presidents? I also wonder how much money Obama raised for the Tsunami AND Katrina victims?

24. He already is
mingling with past presidents. Just look at how he gushes over Reagan. Thank goodness none of our other candidates mingle with past presidents like Obama does with that overrated bum, the late Ronald Reagan.

26. Yep, after watching that video there is no doubt
that Obama is indeed one of the Reagan "Democrats." He is also enamored of the Repuke "accomplishments" of the last ten-fifteen years. Does anybody know what his voting record is, both local and national?

15. I always trust politicians....to be politicians.
Which is about the same way I feel about guys selling watches in alleys.

17. Yes we all know how horrific our DEMOCRATIC President was


I'm of the opinion that some of "you" will never forgive him for being duly elected twice and delaying the implementation of the NEOCON Agenda that we have been under the grip of the last seven-plus years. Why did you do that to 'Merica Mr. President?

21. His shepherding of the Telecommunications Act in '96 helped bring on the Neocon Agenda.

27. Crash Course on The Neocons.
Which came first, Democratic President Clinton or The NeoCONS?

23. I guess the plan is that after Hillary, Jeb's on deck. It's already been 28 years with
a Bush or Clinton as Pres/VP. Enough is enough.

25. Rea It & Weep OR Seek & Ye Shall Find... Many Think This Is Just
being cordial or something, but for me, there are too many pictures and too many instances where THESE TWO have seemed just TOO buddy-buddy for me.

I understand "trying to get along" but this IS MORE THAN THAT! And considering the information regarding Dubai recently, it makes me wonder even more. Just MHO!
