We NEED the Big Dog!!!!

[Rick Myers]

If Bill Clinton showed up, the Neocons would have NO CHOICE but to act! This is the genocide of the poor!!!

[Spazito]

1. Clinton was on screen a short while ago supporting bush's

handling of this, it was VERY disappointing, to say the least. I can understand if he felt he couldn't outright criticize bush but he backed him up all the way and volunteered to speak on it.

3. The big dog has turned into a lap dog. nt

11. clinton stood behind bush. is that the support you all are talking

is this the defending of clinton we are attacking clinton for. or has clinton spoken yet and i missed something

[Karmadillo]

21. He said the disaster was not foreseeable. He knows that's not

true and he should be able to draw a distinction between making sure those in need get help and providing a smokescreen for the administration.

[Totally Committed]

5. I am all for him holding people's feet to the fire,

and making them take action. But, so far, all I've seen him do is go before the cameras and make excuses for Bush's criminal mismanagement and absense. Sorry... I have lost major respect for the man.

10. Exactly right...

Too bad the pathological Bush (turned Clinton) haters here can't get past their own hatred to look at the big picture.

I am sure the people in New Orleans are very dissapointed that Clinton chose to help them rather than bash Bush!!! :sarcasm:

[earth mom]

12. Clinton's gone over to the dark side.

Face the reality.

[Pastiche423]

15. The Clinton that is currently humping bushit's leg?

[pinto]

17. Personally, I think we need an adequate and timely federal response

from those in office now. That's the pressing issue, I think.

18. George I's lapdog "Slicky"?

"Here Slicky!Here Slicky!Come help!Little Georgie fell down the well again!"

19. The genocide of the poor? Pray what do you think Welfare Reform

did to the poor?

Clinton shredded Welfare and treated the poor like pond scum but 'normal' Americans didn't notice because it didn't affect them personally. Now that it does, because Bush is throwing ordinary White people in that same pond, well, now it's a tragedy.

Clinton. Pffft. Effing DLC.

The early 1990s marked a staggering increase in the number of poor children under age six, which reached six million for the first time in 1992, and rose to almost 6.4 million in 1993. From 1993 to 1996 the number of poor children under age six declined by almost 14 percent, to 5.5 million--a figure that is still higher than that in any year between 1975 and 1990. At the same time, the young child poverty rate decreased from 26 percent to 23 percent.

This publication updates One in Four: America’s Youngest Poor, and continues a series of reports and statistical updates about young child poverty in the United States.
