Bill Clinton cites progress on civil rights during his term

"Clinton said that on the day King died, he wondered what he should do, so he got a Red Cross sticker for his car and delivered supplies to the African American community in Washington."

This sounds like another Bill fantasy. I'd like to see some verification of this. Was he even in Washington on the day King died? I'm thinking his white face may not have been that welcome on that day in the poor neighborhoods of Washington on the day King was killed. Bill is getting to be an even more annoying has-been than Gore.

So, Bill claims Black people made strides when he was President and....
that does not speak for Hillary. He is not running for President, or is he or she? I know Obama is running on his own.

Mud wasn't all he was ankle deep in...

God! I am so fed up with Hil and Bill. Please, please, please go away. We don't want any more of your lies and slime.

We are not voting for you Bill !!!

You are really beginning to overstay your welcome.

Hillary is running for president - let Hillary fight her own battles.

Yet more blind hatred, more pettiness and disrespectful comments, supposedly coming from supporters of Barack Obama. Are these really comments from supporters of a candidate who wants to change the tone in Washington? I hope not, because that would be the height of hypocrisy. Anyway, Hillary has her own claims to support the legacy of Dr. King. I discussed those here:

And I think these nasty comments about Bill Clinton are improper if we are discussing Dr. King's legacy. I think he would be calling for unity. I discussed that here:

Bill Clinton has inserted and asserted himself in the 2008 election, as if he is a candidate. This article therefore, examines him and Hillary Clinton from that vantage point.

The Clintons are trying very hard to drag Sen. Obama's campaign that has remained above the proclivities of American politics -race, gender, bitter partisanship, and dirty campaign tactics, into the political mud, that only Bill and Hillary Clinton, like pigs, are best good at.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are also trying to confuse the voters, into thinking that African Americans are the predominant base of Sen. Obama's campaign. Some idiots we have in the media, and not very smart voters are falling for that misinformation. The fact is: most of the so-called black establishment is supporting Hillary Clinton, instead of Sen. Obama. A number of them have dubious distinctions. They include: Jesse Jackson Sr., Andrew Young, Charles Rangle, Ron Delums, Robert Johnson, the list goes on, including, most black ministers. The reason, most of them are backing the Clintons, instead of Sen. Obama is because Sen. Obama does not see America in strictly black and white, democrats and republicans, as them and the Clintons. So, do not let them confuse you. Sen. Obama's campaign, as indeed the support for his candidacy transcends race, ethnicity, religion, gender and political affiliation. That is the reason why, no other candidate in the 2008 race -democrat or republican, has more broad based support and appeal than Sen. Obama.

If we are still smart in this country, we should not let the misinformation by the Clintons, confuse us. I think we are. Do not let the Clintons deceive you. REMEMBER, Bill Clinton remains, a convicted perjurer, and no smart person would believe a convicted perjurer.

About the women, who started in New Hampshire to vote as a block for Hillary Clinton: you are not really very smart and intelligent? If you were, you would recall what this pervert -Bill Clinton, did to a young woman, who was an intern in his White House, Monica Lewinsky. Bill Clinton sexually assaulted this young lady with cigar. This lady could have been your daughter, your sister, or your nice. That was not all: it is believed that Bill Clinton fondled and groped several other women, in Arkansas and in the White House.

Ask yourselves: what did Hillary Clinton do -what was her role in all the sexual assaults by her husband? She masterminded a campaign of disinformation and misinformation, to belittle, dehumanize and victimized these women all over again, calling them, bimbos. In a way, Hillary Clinton enabled the sexual assaults against women by her husband, rather than hold him responsible.

I ask you, women, who are supporting Hillary Clinton: did Bill Clinton not sexually assault, grope and fondle enough women, in the 8 years he was in the White House, that you want him and Hillary to come back and finish the job, or are you people so thick, that you cannot think?

Bill Clinton was disbarred by the Arkansas Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme Court for lying. Why would anyone believe anything he would ever say? Especially about himself.

Democrat Bill Clinton, never did anything, for anybody, anywhere, at anytime. Democrat Bill Clinton, makes more appearances, and announcements, now then when President.

afterall ... it is all about Bill ...

Mike Pridmore:

You bleeding heart do-gooder! Most Americans -Republicans, Democrats and Independents find Bill Clinton's conducts objectionable. He brought a lot of disgrace to the office of the president with the fondling and groping of women who worked for him, including the young woman, Monica Lewinsky. How would you feel about Clinton, if any of his victims was your mother, wife, daughter, sister, or niece? Sen. Obama has nothing to do about comments anyone decides to make that is based in facts, about Bill Clinton. He is also a convicted perjurer. Richard Nixon did not even do things are criminal and heinous as Bill Clinton, and he accorded the American people respect by staying out of the political lamlight, after he resigned for the Watergate scandal. This moron, Bill Clinton, would not even accord us the respect of not reminding us of the sordid memories of his 8 years in office. You want us to keep quite about this, how dare you?

What are you being a cry baby about? Bill Clinton brought disrespect to himself with the abominable things he did to Monica Lewinsky, and other women he sexually assaulted. He is also a convicted perjurer. He brought these on himself, along with the way he has inserted himself into this campaign, when, infact, his wife should fight for this nomination.

From this news story: Reminding African Americans that he has long been on their side, Clinton said he was at the March on Washington in the 1960s and that he had shared many triumphs with African Americans. "I went to the Mall. Some of you were there, and we were up to our ankles in mud," he told the 40th annual commemorative service honoring King, his achievements and his memory."

Bill Clinton is such an OUTRAGEOUS AND APPAULING LIAR!!! I guess he forgot that ten years ago, in a 1998 interview, per CNN, he stated "Most of us who are old enough remember exactly where we were on August the 28th, 1963. I was in my living room in Hot Springs, Arkansas. I remember the chair I was sitting in, I remember exactly where it was in the room. I remember exactly the position of the chair when I sat and watched on national television the great march on Washington unfold. I remember weeping uncontrollably during Martin Luther King's speech. " He probably didn't even watch it on tv, either!

I think the same thing was said in his biography. There is no level to which these two will not stoop. They wouldn't know the truth if it bit them in the ass. Bill and Hillary just make things up as they go along, for their own benefit! How could any of you vote for slime like these two? Do you folks really want 4 or 8 more years of these two. OMG! Help us and help the U.S.A.

the clintons are walking a tightrope. if they diss obama too much, if hillary gets the nomination they are in throuble with blacks in november. the dems cant win w/out blacks. it will be interesting to see how this turns out, there is going to be a lot of swallowing of pride. because it looks like obama and hillary cant get the whitehouse w/out each other. and if the primaries get too nasty, egos may be bruised beyond repair for them to be on the same ticket. the GOP is sitting back with their arms folded watching the dems destroy each other and the party.

the clintons may win the primary battle, but lose the election war.

Bill Clinton is a proven liar. Contrary to his protestations, he did nothing for black people during his presidency. Also, did anyone see him at the Mall, up to his ankles in mud? Bill, show us a picture to prove you were there. I'll bet you my last dollar you can't.

You’re not running for President Bill. Sorry but your wife is not even close to what you used to be. I do mean used to be. Sure there were some positive changes in the first 4.5 years of your Presidency. Then there were other changes in the last 3.5 years that were not becoming of a president. Do you remember the grid lock? Do you remember the impeachment proceedings? The lies?

People blame Bill for all sorts of thngs that are not true. The Lewinsky mess was ugly, but most of America understood that he was lying about sex, and were willing to forgive that. He ended his second term with very high approcval ratings, even higher ratings than Reagan got. A lot more of those stubborn facts to get in the way of the Clinton bashing here:

Jesse Jackson is one of the traditional black leaders who actually is supporting Sen. Obama, for the record. He did such a good job tonight in the debate on CNN!

Republicans just can't get over President Clinton and I love it because they are going to see him in the Whitehouse for 8 more years when his wife is President.

You can always tell when Republicans are desperate. They bring Bill Clinton up but Clinton hasn’t been president in 8 years.

We Independent will give Hillary a Reagan style landslide victory in November.

I believe she will win Tennessee in a National Election at this point but she doesn’t need my State.
