Bill Clinton Comes To Destin

[Jdarg]

Here is a brief video that shows how the same cast of Democratic Party characters that are now against the war were all for taking Saddam out back then. This includes the carpet bagging Hillary. Now they are against it, how convenient!!!

Wonder what they will be for next year???

As I recall, both sides of the aisle had the same bad info regarding Iraq. Once we got there and it became evident that the decision to invade was a colossal eff-up, why would anybody but suckups and eternal optimists want to continue their support for a war that had gone so badly? At least there are some people trying to put some bandaids on damage that will never be fully repaired.

I have a feeling that their decisions have more to do with politrics than thinking that the war is bad.

Yes, but maybe in this instance, their "politrickal" thinking was good, despite the motive.

Maybe, but lately I've been wondering. What if they are just covering up vital information and would putting us a great risk by their political actions? I don't know, but it sure has me thinking a bit. Seriously, go back and read my post which includes Bill Clinton's speech from Dec 1998 regarding Desert Fox. Bill Clinton sent out attacks on Iraq, and he was persistent about our need to take out Iraq. That is the part which really has me wondering.

Despite what most want to believe here, the surge is working. Even the NYT says so. John Burns is doing some great journalism work over there.

Hillary played dumb to the Monica story because she didn't want to blow her shot at the Presidency. Bill may have not done more than a lot of husbands do, but that doesn't make it right. In fact, it sets the bad example for the population. His actions show that it is okay to break your vows which were made before God and the State. Furthermore, he went a step to far, IMO, lying about it while under oath. He could have said, "My sex life is none of your d_mn business," but no, he lied about, while looking all loving and caring. Now he wasn't the first to sleep around while in office, but I think he was the first to blatantly lie about it to the public in a press release. Not the role model I want for my kids. I want a President (wishful thinking) who will set a good example as a person and a leader. I do hold elected officials to higher standards. They put themselves on a pedestal for everyone to see, so it seems rather ridiculous that they don't think they are being watched by everyone.

As for judging, do you think we should close our eyes and pull the lever when we are selecting a leader for our country? To me, that doesn't make sense. Elected politicians need to be judged every day in order to keep them somewhat honest. I think you are pushing the envelope on that statement about not judging. ;-)

Amen to that Bro!

YES, it was wrong for him to lie, and 2 wrongs do not make right. But what about redeemtion?

Husbands and wives make vows before God.

As parents, how we behave is our children's role model.

As for closing our eyes and pulling a lever to elect a leader, IMO ....and I have one just like everyone else... the record shows that is exactly what happened when George Bush was elected.

I too want a honest elected officials.

I am not judging anyone, I simply quoted what the bible says. Not pushing any envelope.

Anyway, my point in posting this was to share the information.

Redemption works if someone actually redeems themself, it's not an automatic process. As far as the Bible quote, it says "Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?" The phrase "Judge not" has been taken out of context. The office of President is a serious position, only one is elected out of millions. For someone to disgrace the office, disgraces the entire country. Do you really believe that "Bill" is as good as this country can produce? The president sets the standard for all Americans, and represents us to the world. Is there no one that obtain a higher standard of ethics than that?

Clinton is no longer in office....George Bush is.

She was answering your question about redeemtion (sic).

NEVER TEAR DOWN ANYTHING UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO BUILD SOMETHING BETTER IN ITS PLACE.

This rule applies to both individuals and things. It?s easy to criticize other people thoughtlessly for their shortcomings, and equally easy to find fault in their work or in situations that are not to your liking. It is far more difficult to be a builder of people and to create works of art, useful products, or profitable businesses. Make sure you are a builder, not a destroyer of people and things. When you criticize the actions or work of others-your children, your employees, or others for whom you are responsible-make sure your criticisms are positive and directed at the act, or the opportunity for improvement, not the individual.
