Soccer Mom: Unplugged

raves, rants, reviews and recounts of life in middle America

Ouch! That's gotta hurt...

@ 08:24 AM (26 months, 20 days ago)

The internet practically came to life yesterday in response to the factual errors in Bill Clinton attempt at defending his record on terrorism.  By far the best reply to Clinton's spinning was offered in the real, not virtual world by Secretary of State Condi Rice.

Things I noticed while watching the interview - Clinton thinks that 8 months is the same as 8 years in terms of fighting terror.  Even assuming we're that dumb,  it was widely publicized at the time of presidential transition (2000) that the Clinton administration refused to give outbriefs to the incoming Bush administration.  Also making headlines was the fact that the Bushies were late in setting up office because Gore refused to concede and the Clintonites refused to hand over power.  As I recall, they were even charged with raiding all kinds of goodies (some quite expensive) from the White House, Air Force One, etc...  Yep those Dems know how to treat the taxpayer ;-)

I also couldn't believe the audacity it took for Bill to accuse Karl Rove of concocting an atmosphere of fear.  Remember the DNC cartoon political ad that showed GOP leaders pushing wheelchair bound seniors down stairs?  I do. 

As for the outright lies regarding terrorism, well, others already have a handle on those facts.

  1. How can you see through the Demo-rat lies/corruption so easily but be so blinded to it when its Refuglicans?
    I'm not trying to bust on you - but if you look at both sides impartially instead of feeling like you have to side with one or the other - it's obvious both sides are lying liars telling lies everytime they open their mouths. Two heads of one monster - whoever wins, THEY win.

  2. Independents put Clinton into office.

    Tell me, Dugg, who should I vote for?

  3. I don't know - But if my choice is Hillary vs. Condi - (or the equivalent)I'll vote for anyone else who's running - that is if they let the independent on the ballot next time.
    They might have put Clinton in but the kept Bush out. Either way was a loss.

  4. Dugg IMHO conservative politics make more sense with my religious values. I can't speak for others but I am sure others feel the same way. We won't find all or many answers for that matter in politics period, but if I am going to participate in the democratic process I will vote conservative.
