As Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were kissing and making up last Friday, Bill Clinton might have had other ideas, according to a report in The (London) Telegraph.
The paper reports that even as the former president and the current presumptive Democratic nominee prepare to meet to make their own amends, Bill Clinton reportedly told close friends Obama can “kiss my ass” to get his support.
The paper cited an anonymous Democratic source who provided the quote. That source also said Clinton is not making the primary effort to bridge the chasm between himself and Obama.
“He’s saying he’s not going to reach out, that Obama has to come to him. One person told me that Bill said obama would have to quote, ‘kiss my ass,’ close quote, if he wants his support.
“You can’t talk like that about Obama — he’s the nominee of your party, not some house boy you can order around.
“Hillary’s just getting on with it and so should Bill.”
Bill Clinton has more recently cooled his rhetoric toward the de facto party leader, but he has publicly expressed his anger

Very, very believable.
Ha. This development is probably a shot in the arm to the Obama campaign.
I heard all I care to hear about people kissing Bill Clinton’s ass from the Starr Report.
Yeah! Drop dem drawers, Bubba!! Drop dem drawers!!!
So let me get this right, guys have to kiss his butt while women kiss his_____!
I AM LOVIN’ THIS; LORD HELP ME, I’M LOVIN’ THIS!
I think Bill needs to “apologize to Jesse Jackson”.
The delicious part is that soon the Toon will realize just how far he's fallen. Of course he'll take solace with anything in a skirt, but what else is new?
Something tells me that is not the first time he has demanded such an act of homage. The media and his liberal Democrat followers obliged him to so much ass-kissing and coverup duties during his obscene presidency that the guy is just used to getting it and actually enjoys rubbing people's noses in it.
It's too bad Hillary won't be VP. Bill and Michelle would be battling over who gets more posterior kissing.
Maybe it's time for Bill to get one of those monkey-god idol charms?

Very understandable. The way Bill looks at it - he was a two term President of the US and here’s this upstart who came out of nowhere who called Bill a racist among other unflattering terms. And took over as pop idol supreme.
Hillary can hit up Obama for the cash, but what does Obama have to offer Bill? More cash? Secretary General of the UN?
A Supreme Court appointment? Rescinding Bill’s impeachment? What would be Bill’s price?
Yep.
Other than the fact that they’d ruin this country TWICE AS QUICKLY as Osamaobama doing it alone, the fireworks between Hillary and Ms Obama would be SOOOO ENTERTAINING. It does ALMOST make you want Hillary to be the VP.
What type of “carrot” do you think Obama offered Hillary to garner her support? He DID offer her something and it must have been really juicy cause she was a bitter old hag until a couple of days ago.
Hillary's not ready to leave center stage yet. Obama needs her voters. It's a question of how many will flip over to McCain. All those "bitter" Democrats in small towns, clinging to guns and religion, eh?
I figure it because, a lot of good, loyal Democrats are sick and tired of the Clintons and deep down want them gone from the level of political power they have owned for many years now. A lot of these people upheld and defended Bill Clinton at his worst (even when they knew they were lying to themselves). Now, after the fact, a lot of them see the Clintons for what they are and are, in fact, ashamed of the decrepit ex-President. The further he is at arm’s length from Obama, as they see it, the better. - Hillary still has the wool pulled over a lot of Democrat eyes, but not enough to get her and Bill back into the Presidency, not without a load of chicanery and bad “luck” on the part of the vapid Obama.
I hope when good Democrats get engrossed in the Obama “promise” that they will think back and remember the once brilliant, glittering “promise” of Bill Clinton, the empty promise of a tomorrow with endless opportunities (opportunities for his abuse of the perks of the highest office in this land, that is).
Bill Clinton, and Hillary as well, are a collective shame to this country, and especially Bill does anyone a favor by not “helping” their campaign.
Good points; I think you’re right.
