Bill Clinton Comes To Destin

New posts
No Miss Kitty..I disagree about John Edwards....The grand prize for consummate politition goes to the plastic, wind up Ken doll version of a presidential candidate, Mitt "Mittens" Romney! He is not quite sure where he stands on most issues, but I am sure his advisors will be letting him know shortly!
Funny. I said a few months ago, that Mitt will be the Democrat's favorite in the next election. He is much like Hilary and Obama in the fact that he waits for the opinion polls before stating any positions. He is Republican enough to get their votes, and he is left enough to do fairly well with the Left. We'll see. We still haven't seen all the cards on the table.

:biggrin: ...I don't doubt you...I haven't really seen the Mitt in action yet. I will look out for him!

Very "fair ands balanced" assessment Smiling Joe--I like the way you think!
 
+1 Chickpea

While he did drag the country into an embarrassing public spectacle, it PALES in comparison to what "King George" has done to embarrass our country in the eyes of the vast majority of the world.....

:clap:
 
Even as I type this I am already regretting this - please do not all jump down my throat as I know I will pretty much be the lone voice out here in the south heartland.......BUT

I really, truely, deeply do not care ONE iota about what Bill Clinton did with his personal life while in office. He was IMHO an unbelievably skilled politician who oversaw one of the greatest economic expansions in the US (no need to talk about whether that was luck or public policy, or private enterprise -that is not the point here) who unfortunately squandered a lot of his potential on sex and power and dragged this country into an embarrassing public spectacle. I know an insane amount of time, money and resources was spent on impeachment proceedings and by now we all know about the abject hypocrisy of so many who were calling for his head!

Notwithstanding the very good points SJ raised earlier about politicians ideally valuing and respecting the highest form of public office (and I agree with this) - Bill Clinton was acting in the same way that thousands and thousands of us all act (making point here that more than 65% of Americans supposedly admit to cheating on their spouses) - and I personally do not need to hold a man or woman to higher PERSONAL standards just because they are seeking the presidency - at this point I just crave someone competent.

Well said ChickPea ----

It's hard to believe that after all these years ---
These little childish remarks are all people can come up with ---
Wake up folks --- look at the big picture ---- stop living in the past --
We all make mistakes --- though personally misleading the American people is of much more concern to me than what happened with someone's sex life --- does all that really matter in the big scheme of things? When will we move on and concentrate on making this world a better place? If we all spent as much time working on solutions as we do on criticizing others, perhaps there could be positive change in this country.
