Hillary and Bill Clinton
by Charles_BCCA
For years I have supported Clintons even though Bills personal conduct in the Whitehouse was beneath contempt and in retrospect he should have been impeached. But all that pales in comparison to what he has done to the race relations in two short weeks. Obama had been gaining points by bringing a message of hope and reconciliation between races, and what does Clintons do? They panic paint him as a black candidate and thus stir up racial prejudice to drive away the white voters from him. This clearly demonstrates that the country does not need four years of Clintons in the Whitehouse. Their conduct was contemptuous and beyond forgiveness.

Once I again, I have to ask, how many lies does Bush have to tell before his is impeached?

Good question, Clinton's lies killed no one, look at the damage and deaths W's have. Also, Clinton lied about this one thing (that he is so pilloried for), BushCo has told more than we can count.

Who is the greater threat?

Bush is a Clinton legacy
by pwoxby

A lot of us who support Barack Obama over the Clintons view George W. Bush as one of Bill Clinton's legacies. If the tarnish of Bill's second term hadn't rubbed off on Al Gore, well...

That Bush has gotten a free pass from a Democratic Congress speaks to how fearful Democrats are of the Republican smear machine. The politics of fear and division are what Obama and his supporters are trying to overcome.

Greatbear - you don't know. It's okay to lie and have a war needlessly divides families and kill THOUSANDS of our brightest and best - (and we know Bush lied). But do not have an affair- like so many of the other Republican and Democratic politicians and your name is Bill Clinton- that is unforgivable and the absolute worst thing a President has ever done in the history of modern presidency. Why that is impeachable?

You didn't know that?

Partly because, unlike Bill Clinton, GW Bush has managed to avoid lying under oath. That was the impeachable offense. He and Dick Cheney cleverly have people like Alberto Gonzales and Scooter Libby to do that for them.

Wow comparing Bush and the Clintons that goes a long way to reassure us that Hillary will be a fresh change in the Whitehouse

I'd rather have a tried and true change, than a political mole any day!! While I agree the Clinton/Bush era needs to come to a close one day, I just do not think Obama supports change. America wants to solidify change by using his skin color, thats all there is to it.

You want change, well, then America seeks change, and to solidify that change, there is going to more needed than just a skin color, but more people think that changing the color of the wall paper is going to correct our problems. It wont.

He is our Republican Democrat, that is what my state called him while in office, what he needs to do is change his Republican policy values, and liberal Republican views, so he can really be called a democrat!!

"there is going to more needed than just a skin color, but more people think that changing the color of the wall paper is going to correct our problems." Sharpchefjeff - you really are a bigot!! Like a good Clinton hound you've injected the specter of race into every conversation. Just like Billary did in SC: AND THAT"S SAD!1 :( If the debate for you can only be denegrated into racist rhetoric then you've already lost!! The people of Your state voted Obama into office if your candidate lost too bad. Live with it!! Keep your bigoted speech off the site.

Wallpaper=Bigot? Addressing skin color=Bigot?

I'm Black!! I was not offended!!

You claim to be a military man, but you still haven't answered my questions on that subject. I'm not sure if the sharp guy is racist, but he didn't say anything of a bigot in value.

I agree with the fact skin color does not equal change! It would be a great moment to have a black man voted into the White House, but just because he is black, it should not be the only reason for him to be voted in.

I've read your posts catous6, and I honestly think your the only person on here searching for bigotry. In by the means you use to stipulate someone of being a bigot, makes your cries of unfair racism very disturbing. I'd hate to see your reaction to being called black, by any other race other than your own.

Having been called the "N" word a few times in my life, and being subjected to a racist's verbalizations has given me much sight into the world of racism.

I think of white people, yellow people, brown, purple, green, all people as my brother, or sister. Even a racist has his value, even if you hate that person, they still are a human being. I'm not religiously endowed, but I believe in humanity.

Can you be any more transparent? Your a racist of your own race, and any material that comes from a person regarding your race, causes you disdain, because simply put, I think you hate being black! Are you related to MJ?
