Kerry Calls Out Bill Clinton For Dishonest Attacks

By Chris Jones, published on Jan 25, 2008

From CNN:

John Kerry, the Democratic Party's 2004 nominee for president, took aim at Bill Clinton Friday, telling the National Journal the former president does "not have a license to abuse the truth."

The Massachusetts senator, who endorsed Barack Obama's White House bid earlier this month, said Clinton's criticisms of the Illinois senator have been "over the top," and suggested the former president is getting "frantic."

Targeting Clinton's recent spate of attacks on Obama, Kerry said, "I think you had an abuse of the truth, is what happened. …I mean, being an ex-president... (more)

Bill Clinton at UCLA tomorrow morning

By Ariel, published on Oct 13, 2006

Bill Clinton will be speaking at UCLA tomorrow October 13th at 9:15am. He will be talking about Proposition 87. On September 21st, during his 2006 Clinton Global Initiative conference, Bill Clinton lauded Proposition 87 and presented it as key step in breaking the United States' addiction to oil and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

"CGI was designed to tackle big global challenges in bite size pieces," President Clinton said. "This is a very, very good thing to do and, since California is our biggest state, it pumps 190 million tons of pollution into the air from cars, trucks and... (more)

Clinton praises Newt Gingrich for GOP Election Performance

By TonyBerkman, published on Nov 27, 2011

The federal government was shut down numerous times due to disagreements between Newt Gingrich and former President Bill Clinton. Clinton told Newsmax that the former Speaker of the House has emerged in the GOP race "because of his performance in the dabates."

He is "articulate and he tries to think of a conservative version of an idea that will solve a legitimate problem. He thinks about this stuff all the time," said the former President.

"I think he’s doing well just because he’s thinking, and people are hungry for ideas that make some sense" said Clinton though he would... (more)

The Bill And Hillary Show

By Amo, published on Jan 25, 2008

...hosted by CNN, as a totally out-of-character, Barack Obama went on the attack against Hillary Clinton.

The strategy all along by the Clinton’s, was to simply draw Obama into a slugfest, and take away that air of confidence and grace, to get down and dirty, and they succeeded, Bill Clinton’s uncanny ability to slowly interject himself into the race, caught both the political pundits and in particular Obama off guard. It seems that the constant assertions and innuendoes by the former president became too much for Obama to ignore, and he foolishly took the bait, and went after ... (more)

A Clinton Presidency At Any Cost

By D. E. Carson, published on Feb 19, 2008

The howls and cries of “foul” still resonate in my ears from 2000. It made no difference how many times the votes in Florida were counted, Al Gore refused to give up his bid to succeed his former boss, Bill Clinton and he was bound and determined to get it. But at least he didn’t stoop to cheating.

Eight years have passed and liberals are hell-bent on regaining control of the American government. One liberal in particular is so hell bent on returning to the White House that she is prepared to cheat in ways no one would have ever imagined.

When states moved their primaries up (way... (more)

Clinton Shows No Signs Of Leaving Race, But Why Should She?

By Chris Jones, published on Mar 4, 2008

...for a nomination fight that could roll on for months to come.

“You know this is a long process,” Mrs. Clinton told reporters Tuesday morning outside a polling place in Houston.

It was an entirely different message from the one delivered by former President Bill Clinton just a few weeks ago, when he told Ohio and Texas voters that his wife would not succeed without victories in those delegate-rich states.

I'm not sure I really blame Sen. Clinton for staying in the race. It's only a hunch, but I get the sense that the media is about to turn on ... (more)

Interview with author Vincent Tuckwood

By Novel Noise, published on Jan 20, 2012

...be great fun to adapt.

If you had to do it all over again, would you change anything in your latest book?

The simple answer is no, I’m a big believer in the work standing as it was on the day it was published. It’s possible for me to get lost in the tinkering forever – Bill Clinton isn’t the only one who can argue what the meaning of ‘is’ is!

That said, with Family Rules, I’ve had the joy of adapting it to screenplay this year, with my screen-writing partners, James Patric Moran and Timothy Quinlan. As a result, I’ve already had chance to change a... (more)

America's Lazy Working Poor

By Paul Wylie, published on Feb 10, 2011

...middle class to the rich. By using his long debunked 'trickle down economic theory', he could claim that the rich, if they had more money, would help the poor, and therefore there was no longer a need to fund all of these programs designed to help the poor stay alive. We could also examine Bill Clinton's selling out of the American middle class and the poor with his 1996 'welfare reform'. Nothing more than an election year gimmick, it has since caused at least 2.2 million Americans to end up homeless. Fast forward to the extreme defunding and destruction of social safety net programs by... (more)

Let's Blame It All On The Poor

By Paul Wylie, published on Mar 14, 2011

...by thrusting entitlement program issues into the faces of the American people whenever election time rolls around, or whenever they need to distract from the real issue of the day. Like, 'Where are the jobs, Mr. Boehner?' What those who use this tactic don't want you to know is that Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary started much of this expenditure mess with their now infamous 'welfare reform' during Clinton's term. The insurance industry who helped elect him demanded their cut of the Medicaid pie, and it was bestowed on them in the form of 'managed care'. Furthered by Bush to the... (more)
