Damn i miss Bill Clinton

[bigdarryl]

I just watched his interview with Keith Oberman and I'm sitting there thinking to myself the deference between him and this dip shit we have in the whitehouse and there is no comparison Clinton is articulate and smart. and everything he says is the truth

[OwnedByFerrets]

1. I have to feel that alot of us

miss his intellegence and compassion.

[BootinUp]

15. No question. n/t

[Nite Owl]

2. It was calming

maybe just remembering the 'good ol' days' back when he was President.

[silverweb]

3. Amen!

He's not always right, no one is -- but his whole attitude of finding common ground and working with opponents towards common goals is so very badly needed, especially today. He's a giant among men.

[AtomicKitten]

18. That very quality

is vilified here at DU; most simply don't understand.

[silverweb]

19. Sad but true.

But it's very, very hard... especially when your opponents are resisting common ground and are intent on vilifying you. All the more reason to admire and respect Clinton.

I saw and watched the interview with Keith and all I could think was, "You're a much better human being than I've ever been able to be, Sir."

All the good intentions in the world can't effect positive change. What Mr. Clinton is able to do with that unique and difficult talent of his DOES change people and the world for the better. For that, I revere him.

[AtomicKitten]

20. I completely agree

"All the good intentions in the world can't effect positive change. What Mr. Clinton is able to do with that unique and difficult talent of his DOES change people and the world for the better. For that, I revere him."

So well stated. Bravo/a.

I only wish some could put aside their cynicism and partisan agenda and really see the wonderful, beautiful work he is doing, work that punches through the fear and hatred assaulting our senses on a daily basis, good news like this http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2842539&mesg_id=2842539 that is ignored in favor of cult of personality here at DU.

4. I miss him, too, bigdarryl

KO's interview was great. It's so wonderful seeing a president who can speak our language -- both literally and figuratively.

5. Oh

Let's not even go there....

[Sam Odom]

6. Big Dog is 100% better than * BUT "everything he says is the truth"

Come on.... :crazy:

[ElboRuum]

12. Curious...

Other than "I... did... not... have... sex... with... that... woman...", what'd he dissemble about?

[Sam Odom]

14. Other than that Mrs Lincoln how did you like the play?

Comes to mind.

[NativeTexan]

7. Presidential, believeable....

.....and calming. The greatest politician of my lifetime, and along with JFK, and yes, LBJ, one of the three greatest presidents in my lifetime!

[BattyDem]

8. I was near tears

It was so wonderful to hear an intelligent, compassionate, articulate, INFORMED person speak about our country and the problems facing it. :patriot:

[ElboRuum]

9. Curious...

Other than "I... did... not... have... sex... with... that... woman...", what'd he dissemble about?

[bigdarryl]

13. OH PLEASE!!! so he got a BJ so what maybe....

this motherfucker in in the whitehouse now needs one, maybe he will calm down with this war shit.

[Sam Odom]

17. ElboRuum's post was meant for me

BACK OFF :)

[BootinUp]

16. That never

came up. It was an interview about politics and current world events.

[Botany]

10. Me too

Smart and understanding the different nuances in the Mid East ....
Both of the last real winners Gore & Kerry would have done better
then this asshat that is illegally squatting in the White House now.

The differences between bush and Clinton are so striking.

bush today @ his press conference ... ah ahh ah I I well
the partner .... I mean our partner ........

[ElboRuum]

11. Ignore previous reply... intended for someone else... nt
