Ok man What is up with this guy? Why wont he go the f.uck away? He acts though he is still president. In the newspaper and on the news all you hear about is Clintons surgey. It isnt just a quick reffernce, it is a fulldetail on what he underwent and what his recovery process is going to be like. Who gives a shit? i mean really. All the while, the war in Iraq, and other issues over seas like the russian situation gets a quick two paragraph blurb, or is mentioned in passing on news. I hope that lieing decieving bastard Clinton dies a horribly painfull death, i hope he gets an inoperable tumor on the base of his spine. He diddnt do a God damn thing for this country and is still trying to take the spot light.

BackFire
And this is somehow Clintons fault, that he's getting press for a sergery? Yeah, I'm sure he's just calling all the newspapers and TV sations telling them all what's going on. I'm sure he's begging for press after all the negative press he got during his presidency when he got a blow job from some fat girl. What are you doing watching the news if you want to hear actual news? News stations are crap, you should know this. They're never goign to cover anything of any importance. If you don't like what they're covering on the news, don't watch it.

And how is he acting like he's still president? By getting press of his heart sergery? By giving his opinions on topics that people ASK him about? Like him or not, he is still a famous, and important person for alot of people, no different than any other celebrity.

He was a fine president, he provided good economy, lots of jobs, he was charasmatic and a fine public speaker. People liked him the world over, he wasn't the ogre that Bush is seen as by other countries. It's no coincidence that there weren't many huge problems when Clinton was around. The rest of the world respected him and liked him. Which is more then can be said about our current president.

manchichirtchit
i don't think he's trying to take away the spot light, the media just gives it to him. and on a personal note, i think he handled his presidency well.

moonwalker741
Well Ronald Reagen died and that was in the newspapers and news, so i dont know what the big deal is

WindDancer
I agree with you rR. I'm sick of hearing about Clinton and that annoying *BLEEP* of Hilary. But this time I kinda feel bad for Clinton. That bypass operation surgery is serious. I highly dislike Clinton, but this time I only wish him to get better. I'm sure that when Bush get's sick, most of his haters would also show some respect and care for the man. But then again who really knows how far anti-Bush people will go. roll eyes (sarcastic)

Anyways, whether Clintons gets well or not. It doesn't affect me in any way. So, I really won't give him much thought.

moonwalker741
i hate bush with a passion, but its not like i want him to die...thats just cold

WindDancer
Some Bush haters sound like they actually want to kill the man! I mean chill! You don't support him that's fine. But some of the haters take it to the extreme.

bardock
clinton was great bush sucks

WindDancer
Anyways, back to Clinton.....whether he gets better or worse...that still won't affect my life. Period!

BackFire
Same could be said about any haters, whether it be for Bush, Kerry, Clinton, whoever. Hater's are silly and ignorant, no need to listen to them. You should take their opinion as what they are, a novelty that exists soley for the amusement of smart people.

moonwalker741
i agree

but not to the point that i want him to drop dead

rapmastad
i know, clinton was a great president, and i agree with backfire, is it his fault press are swarming him? if you dont wanna hear about clinton dont watch the news, thats all the informatino i can give to you

WindDancer
I agree with BF. But then again I did kinda hated Clinton back in the 90's. So is better if I just keep myself out of this one for now.

I'm done.

ragesRemorse
how is Clinton acting like he is still president? He has been going from state to state having democratic rally's speaking his views on America. It isnt as if he ist supproting the democratic party or anything. He is seriously having rally's on his views of what the American economy should be like. the he goes on a nation wide book tour. I am not attacking just Clinton of course, i am attacking the media and every one else who Spin Clinton as the best thing that happend to America and still praise him like we should care what he is doing.

He also was a terrible President that sold the country down the river. Oh yeah not to mention lied to the american people. He sighned a bill while the country slept that sold our national parks to NAto.

rapmastad
like you really give a dick about national parks, not trying to insult you, but really, is that why you think hes such a bad president?

bardock
you want to talk national parks,your supporting the same guys who wants to drill in wildlife resevres.the same guy who during his time as governer made his state the most polluted in the country.

manchichirtchit
i'd rather have a liar than a coke-head for president...

come to think of it, i don't want neither. but there is no such thing as an honest politician...

jetspike
liberal sissies.clinton had the worst economy in the history of america.bush has had one of the best

BackFire
Shit, I just read that...now I'm dumber... Whenever anyone uses the term "Liberal" or "conservative" as an insult and I witness it my IQ drops by 2 points.

ragesRemorse
you rather have a draft dodger as president? Clinton ran away to Rusiia, that is a little Bi.tch. Yeah i care about national parks, especially when one of them are the statue of libery. No this isnt soley why i loath Clinton, but i dont have patence to type of the laundary list of reason. I will of course soon.

RaventheOnly
I have nothing against Clinton and i believe he was a good President. big grin Even though all the times you all mentioned about the positives of his Presidency were due to Congress ratheer then Clinton... but they would have not been passed if he vetoed them so you can say somewhat he helped pass them. Yet i do not like the fact that his surgery gets a higher state of importance then more serious matters like the Russian hostage situation erm ... or even at certain points the Florida Hurricane ..... they were covered almost equally for God sakes.... erm

BackFire
Oh no, he's giving his opinions and people like them. How horrid. I guess only the president, no matter how dumb or inept, should be the only person allowed to have rallies over their views on politics and the country. So much for that whole freedom of speech thing, no matter, it was a bad idea anyways.

Yeah, he lied about getting a blow job, and bush lied about their being weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and having "reliable and solid" info on the matter, despite the fact that he has yet to find them. "Oops, we screwed up, my bad." Lets not forget that every president has lied about something, it's a silly complaint to have about one president in particular, unless you're willing to accept that every president has lied about something or another, and if you accept that then your complaint becomes void, which it already is.

And oh no, national parks, that's far worse then anything anyone else has done. Hold the presses, some stupid bears won't get to maul as many people accidentally.

Darth Revan
But... but... Clinton lied about having SEX, which is the worst possible sin ANYBODY can do!!!! fear

j/k of course no expression

jetspike
bush didnt lie.kerry lies at every chance he gets.he hates veterans.bush will stop gay marrige and kick those damn slcaker poor people to the curb where they belong

BackFire
Let me guess, you like Rush Limbaugh.

Darth Revan
and having homeless people lying around in the gutter is a good thing... how?

jetspike
RUSH IS THE BEST.HE DIDNT EVEN DO DRUGS THAT WAS SOMETHING MADE UP BY THE LEFT

Darth Revan
laughing laughing laughing

manchichirtchit
i'd rather be a sissy now and president later. f*ck the draft. i don't want to go to war... ever. i didn't tell nobody to start a war. why should i be the one risking my life fighting it? let the "fighter pilot" president do it.

BackFire
Considering the fact that the draft is unamerican and hypocrtical to the whole "freedom" thing that this country holds so dear, yeah, I don't care about that.

jetspike
liberals are commie draft dogers who hate america

manchichirtchit
is it just me or is jetspike making us dumber with every posts that he submits?

BackFire
It's not just you. If I don't stop reading his posts soon I'll be as dumb as Bush.

Darth Revan
at this point, I think he may just be trying to start flame wars. He starts this kind of shit everywhere, just ignore him.

jetspike
why cuz i speak the truth

manchichirtchit
you, my "friend" fabricate your own truth... we just watch CNN.

bardock
jet my you dont knowshit

Darth Revan
the truth according to Fox News yes

But here in reality, everything out of your mouth is complete and utter bullshit happy

bardock
did you know that 83% of the people interviewed on fox news are rebuplicans or support president bush.

Darth Revan
No, but it doesn't surprise me in the slightest

manchichirtchit
hypocracy of democracy... there is NO freedom.

bardock
yes

RaventheOnly
The draft is the mainstay of early military action. erm armies in the passed required large numbers due to the technology of the time... every modern Democracy has practiced it one time or another... and it use to be manditory before 1900... erm and 1812 erm

BackFire
Sounds like rhetoric to me. The draft is the exact oposite of freedom. Forcing someone to go over to a foriegn land and fight and possibly die for something they don't believe in when they don't want to is slavery.

It was needed during the early days, but there was no need for it over the last 60 years, and there is no need for them to consider bringing it back now. (which they are doing if you didn't know)

Darth Revan
If they reinstate the draft... I'm moving to Canada no expression

bardock
most of the rebuplicans who support war are really out of shape and suck at all forms of pyhsical activity so most like they would die if there was a draft.

BackFire
Actually, America and Canada have a treaty that won't allow Americans to border hop to Canada this time. Looks like we'll have to go to Mexico.

vaya_the_elf
I also wish Clinton would just go away... He was a awful president, and I just wish i would not have to ever hear is name again... Why? because he SUCKS!!!!

bardock
vaya proof please

Darth Revan
ah well, it's warmer down there anyways stick out tongue

bardock
hola essa

vaya_the_elf
To me respect is a important thing for a leader ... and I think that no one really respected him.. and because of him other country probably laughed at us .. and people here in a our own country still make jokes about his presidency .. and hardly anyone I know ever respected him

Plus he was bad for us Military wise too. ..

Darth Revan
Are you kidding me? He won by a landslide! And yet, you're telling me NOBODY respected him... To me, at least, he commanded respect. He was a great speaker, and especially compared to the president we have now.

Err... reality check? People in other countries STILL laugh at us! roll eyes (sarcastic) The reason you don't know anybody who respected him is simply because everybody you've known shared your political views. Almost everybody I know thought he was a great (for a politician at leastwink) president... Because my friends all happen to share my political views. It's amazing how disillusioned you can get by talking to the same people all the time.

And he was not bad for the military. Just because he wasn't a warmonger doesn't mean he was destroying the military... I saw a bumper sticker somewhere, "Bush can't lose with Clinton's military". True that.

bardock
hell yeah revan

BackFire
And do you think people respect Bush? Maybe untill he confuses the word "hostile" with "hostage". There is no excuse for that.

Other countries liked him a lot better then they like our current president.

And people make jokes about Bush, what's your point?

He was "bad" for the military because he didn't need them. He used his intelegence and wits to avoid needing to go to war.

vaya_the_elf
I dont talk to people with my views hardly ever.. because most of the time my views are very different that most peoples .. including my friends, and of course my family .... Its just that on this issue most of us do agree that Clinton Sucks

bardock
FACTS PLEASE

Darth Revan
Well, like it or not, that indicates you DO have similar views with your family and friends.

vaya_the_elf
maybe with this issue but with most I dont

BackFire
Who cares if he has similar views as his loved ones? It's perfectly normal. Most people share their views with their parents or friends.

Darth Revan
Yes, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that, because I share my views with my family and friends too. All I'm saying is that you can't really say that nobody respected Clinton based on talking to people you know from real life, for that very reason. Or that everybody respected him, for that matter.

vaya_the_elf
I'm just saying that for the most part I don't share views with most people because I'm weird, and for him not being respected part, I just have to say that I don't respect him personally.

Darth Revan
Well, you DID say that not many people respect Clinton, which, for the third time, cannot be accurately judged by any one person.

vaya_the_elf
I know that I was basing it off of what I have heard from other people around me

Tex
clap

RaventheOnly
Clinton's Military? .... You mean the Republican controlled Congress' Military from Regan's Days.... we had an army twice as large just waiting to push the Iraq's back the first time... because we were ready to fight the Soviets up untill 1990... blink NO PRESIDENT HAS ANY CONTROL OVER ANY MONEY erm CONGRESS DOES!!!!!! .... did you guys attend government class? blink

RaventheOnly
I already said i liked Clinton but trully he had no say whats so ever on what happened during his Presidency budget and job wise... erm i don't know if you remember guys but the Republicans controlled Congress and is therefore responisble for what happened during his terms.... erm whetther he likedd it or not.... erm

BackFire
Jesus Christ, I will give you 10 bucks if you make a post without using those half smile smileys.

RaventheOnly
laughing out loud is that an answer? ..... its more rounding the point whistle you guys don't like it when i come back do ya? laughing out loud hysterical

BackFire
No, here is my answer. And trust me, I have argued against far tougher folk then you...

Clinton was the President, that means he was in charge. Those "republicans" had to run stuff by Clinton, and if he agreed it would get done. If he didn't agree they would change stuff around. He still had a huge say in it.

RaventheOnly
He had the Veto... correct. He needed Congres approval to pass any of his own proposals so he had to make concessions with them... thats why he got anything passed. If he vetoed at the time Congress had a 2/3rds republican majority which could easily overturned his veto and if he vetoed he would have hell to pay... and have nothing he wanted to pass EVER.... he was forced at that time to pass what they wanted... and in good faith Congress allowed some of his legislation threw. big grin

BackFire
Yes, yes. But the point is that he still had A say, and a big one. They could vote it, this is true, but he was still in charge and had a heavy influence on their decision.

RaventheOnly
Actually the Presidents job as always been overrated... he cannot even propose legislation to Congress its self... it is illegal... he has to influence a member to create it for him smile laughing out loud All the things he does on other countries meaning diplomacy has to be approved in the end by Congress laughing out loud he deploy troops on his own for only 70 days laughing out loud and Congress can withdraw them after that by cutting funding big grin

BackFire
"he has to influence a member to create it for him"

Exactly, and lets face it, Clinton was an extremely persuasive man. He surely used his intelegence and said persuasion to get what he wanted.

RaventheOnly
Every President has influence over thier own party members... no expression he was charismatic when dealing with the public but when he had to deal with congrss they said screw you big grin I always thought he was a good guy except for the adultry thing stick out tongue but i always knew he had trouble dealing with congress laughing out loud

BackFire
That Charisma surely rubbed off when he would discuss things with congress, he wasn't just charismatic, but a master debater as well. I'm sure he had no problem getting his points across.

RaventheOnly
sly you have not delt with people with closed ears then smile that 2/3rds hated his gutts so much... thats why he was impeached and nearly stood trial laughing out loud

BackFire
Oh, but I have, many many people on this site would fall under "closed ears". You can still convince them and put up a good argument as to why you believe a certain way.

RaventheOnly
When someone believes in something It is impossible to convince them otherwise... no matter what a person does... every point you make that proves them wrong the closer they hold true to thier belief messed

BackFire
Not if the person was intelegent....but then again, we are talking about congress here....

RaventheOnly
Arrogance can overcome intelligence many times....messed

Congress is actually filled with very bright people... not the brightest but close laughing out loud

BackFire
Not if they can't be persuaded, it's my experience that intelegent people are open to ideas, if presented in a clear and thoughtful way. Arrogance and intelegence are two things that do not go hand in hand.

RaventheOnly
hmm i always thought they did... most intelligent believe they are the sole correct ... but it is the wise who can use intelligence and ignore arrogance smile

BackFire
Nah, the smartest people I know are arrogant to a certain extent, but they won't simply ignore all other ideas unless they don't have confidence in their own ideas and feel the need to always defend them with a closed mind.

bardock
are you better of than you were four years ago?

RaventheOnly
laughing out loud well hmmmmm..... a group of people have declared an unseesing war against everything i stand for and we were attacked... yet... oh my... we haven't been attacked since... eek! I'm pretty much fine considering the cercumstances... by the way the first Tax cut and rebate that we recieved saved our house from forclosure happy if we continued on the previous path we would be living in an apartment right now happy so yes I am very much better off happy

bardock
i m not.you use smilies to much btw

blackwidowlover
ok they do this to all respected presidents, regans death was all over the news for about a month and a half. plus clinton looks like a god compared to bush and kerry, some people just like to look back on fond memories

RaventheOnly
Thats not a response eek! see the sarcasim in my smilies eek!

bardock
I AM NOT BETTER OFF.there is your response

RaventheOnly
eek! well thats you eek! this is me big grin i my family is big grin

jetspike
