Maybe he's losing his touch. Sometimes smart people do stupid things

I've never understood why the Clinton's are perceived as "brilliant". They sure seem to do and to say stupid things with great regularity.

In the first place Bill & Hill have told everyone constantly how intelligent they are and their sick-o-pants have repeated the theme ad nauseum to the point of kinetic overload of two blivets.

Neither are brilliant.
Both are accomplished
Con-artists.

I cannot describe how much I loathe the Clintons and each and every one of their toadys.

Another myth created and propagated by the MSM. IMHO, the clintons are dumb as rocks, but they are as ruthless as Al Capone when it comes to their personal aggrandizement. This combination makes them dangerous.

Thank you!

It seems even so many conservatives are enamored of Hillary that they cannot see this woman isn't the threat she's been made out to be. At least not on her own. She's a fighter, I'll give her that much. Isn't enough. She isn't likeable, she is a poor speaker, she's dependant on her husband's name to get anywhere, and while she may be as smart as the average person on the street, the real brains are the ones that have surrounded the Clinton's.

Now it could be said the last is a complaint registered against Bush. The problem is that in Hill's case it happens to be true. She has drive, ambition and instincts for survival. She attached herself to the movers and shakers of the Liberal movement from youth to middle age. She's no more, no less, a parasite.

Cut off the Clinton name. Cut off Clinton's top advisors. And she has nothing. If ever there was proof of this it is in their need to monitor her every speech and every movement. Bush speaks off the cuff and proves quick witted. She speaks off the cuff and we get memorable moments like "We have a right to debate and to disagree with any administration!!"

I will admit that I believe Bill Clinton to be intelligent. Not the smartest man in the world, but I do believe he's far more intelligent than she. Clnton's main fault is that he is driven to excess. Vanity.

Anyway, I'm not surprised the Libs are ticked off at Clinton. he spent the last week making a fool of himself across the world. This in comparison to Bush who quietly illustrated grace and strength. Bill hurts Hillary's chances. And yet, it would hurt Hill to not have Bill. She's be nothing without the name. It's an interesting dilimma for them.
