Jerry Brown fires back -- at Bill Clinton
Salon ^ | 9/13/10 | Steve Kornacki

The pundit consensus is pretty much unanimous: Jerry Brown really stepped in it over the weekend when he said of Bill Clinton, "[he's] a nice guy, but who ever said he always told the truth?" Brown, who is now the underdog as he waged a gubernatorial bid, felt the need to go after Clinton because Meg Whitman, Brown's free-spending GOP foe, is now blanketing the California airwaves with footage of Clinton savaging Brown's record on taxes during one of their 1992 presidential debates. In the new clip, Brown calls Clinton's tax claims "a lie"

Meanwhile, the Democrat “mainstream” newsrooms are working overtime to spin or spike this story and gloss over the whole thing.

I’ve always like Jerry Brown, even though he is a big lib.

He’s actually better on 2A than Whitman.

This election sucks.

He is finished.

Clinton’s faux legacy is far more important to the libmeida than Moonbeam’s future. Turn off the lights!

Clinton was exercising a little payback for the '92 campaign when Brown revealed Hillary was a crook who paid for Bill's political runs by fleecing clients thru the Rose Law firm.

Ahhhh, those were the days.

amazing ad. using an impeached ex-president and convicted perjurer calling a fellow dem a liar and making the convicted perjurer and impeached ex-president look ok better than the candidate.

I saw the ad on TV several times this weekend. I love it. Clinton despises Jerry Brown. In the 1992 Democrat primary Brown correctly stated that Hillary is a crook. In the ad you see Clinton all pxxxxx off and pointing that long bony finger of his at Moonbeam. If Clinton objected to the use of his image in this add, why is it still running?
