Bush beatable in 2004: former US president Bill Clinton

US President George W. Bush (news - web sites) will be given a run for his money by whichever Democrat ultimately emerges as the party's presidential nominee, former US President Bill Clinton (news - web sites) predicted at a campaign stop in the heartland state of Iowa.

"I get tired of people saying this field can't beat the incumbent president," Clinton said at a campaign event in Indianola, Iowa.

"When somebody tells you the people who are running for president aren't big, they just mean they aren't famous yet."

Clinton also accused Bush of mishandling the US-led war on terror.

"Instead of uniting the world, we alienated it," Clinton said. "Instead of uniting the country, he alienated it."

In his speech Saturday, Clinton said most US voters are unaware of how harmful Bush's tax cuts and other economic policies have been for domestic priorities.

"The American people, not 5 percent of them know they gave me a tax cut and then kicked children out of after-school programs," said Clinton, as thousands of loyal Democrats stood in the rain, waving red signs declaring: "Welcome Back Bill. We Miss You."

Clinton made his comments during a fundraising swing for the nine Democrats vying for the White House, one of his biggest political appearances since leaving office.

Seven of the nine candidates attended the event in the small central Iowa town. Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, and New York activist Al Sharpton did not attend.

The former president has become an increasingly visible presence during primary campaigning, with some candidates receiving weekly guidance on speeches and campaign strategy.

Clinton has said however that he has no plans to endorse a candidate for the White House during the primary campaign.

Makes you wonder what Bill would have done differently to "unite the world" with Islamic terrorists. Yeah, yeah...."we are the world....we are the children....."

[arkfreepdom]

Keep talking billyboy.

[DoughtyOne]

Lord have mercy. Isn't he needed one of two other places more than here?

[Tijeras_Slim]

KA-WHUMP!

Sound of Tijeras_Slim's head exploding.

Dilbert was talking about the stain when he said ..

"I found some numbers that support your strategic plan. I had to take the square root of a negative number to do it. The timeline is on this mobius strip."

This is a true statement, although it has nothing to do with Iraq. The biggest problem Bush has is that same proplem all radical liberal Republicans have, even those that claim to be compassionate conservatives. After their base learns that "compassionate conservative" means be as radically liberal or more so than the Democrats they manage to convince their "base" to understand there isn't any point in even going to the polls.

Yes, Bush can lose. My guess is he doesn't care that much. Being President can be a difficult job.

I suppose I'll vote for him simply because there isn't any choice during the current war. It's a sorry state of affairs.

"I get tired of people saying"....

Now, where have I heard those words before...(I get tired of people saying that if you disagree with...you're unpatriotic").

Hitlery's writing Bubba's speeches?? Bwahahahahahahahah!!!

[N. Theknow]

"I get tired of people saying this field can't beat the incumbent president," Clinton said

And I get tired of this manure salesman giving away samples whenever he opens his mouth.

[habs4ever]

Welcome to the official kickoff to Hillary 2004!Who is the one person that can beat Bush...or so the mantra will go as the delerium to draft the cow builds....*sigh*

[Maria S]

You had your chance, Billy Blythe. Please sit down and shut up.

[Reagan Man]

I thought Jimmuh Carter was a shameless self-promoter, but Bill Clinton tops old Jimmuh by a wide margin. So much for respecting the Presidency. The Democrats version of clueless and classless.

[mrs. a]

Of course, we all know the veracity of Mr. Clinton's assertions...

[Peach]

The Clinton's have been very visible this last week and are testing the waters.

They don't understand that half the people who are cheering for them are doing so because they miss the tawdry Jerry Springer-like details of their lives - not because they want them back in the White House.

[concerned about politics]

Yeh, yeh, yeh. He thought he was unimpeachable, too.
He has a few faithful demonic followers, but the majority thinks he's a discusting liar and pervert. 20% favorability.
Go back to Europe, Bill. You're not welcome here.

[Astronaut]

Keep talking, you coke-snorting rapist. It only works in our favor if Slick Willie remains the face of the democratic party.

[alnick]

Radical liberal republicans? Bwahahahaha!!

[concerned about politics]

Keep talking, you coke-snorting rapist. It only works in our favor if Slick Willie remains the face of the democratic party.

Yep. It reminds the voters that if Hillary runs, the filthy baggage comes along for the ride.

[F.J. Mitchell]

"Welcome back Bill, we miss you."

LOL! Keep your head down Bill, they may aim more carefully next time.

If this lying sack of sh*t really believed what he is saying, Heelary would be running like a jack rabbit.

[princess leah]

He can't even get through one speech without talking about himself (taxpayers don't even realize they gave me a tax cut!) This slug isn't even worth getting upset over anylonger!

[concerned about politics]

Radical liberal republicans? Bwahahahaha!!

LOL. I just brushed it off, and moved on.

[F.J. Mitchell]

"It only works in our favor if Slick Willie remains the face of the democratic party."

That's a face? I thought the sonovabitches were mooning us.

[Sacajaweau]

The guy's street scum and the wifee is just like him. A match made for hell!!

[woodyinscc]

the filthy baggage comes along for the ride.

Makes it a matching set!!

[AlbionGirl]

Hey SWEATHOG, why don't you go work on that 'man rack' you've got going on there, and once you've solved that hormonal dilemma come back for further advise...it'll have something to do with playing in traffic.

Today at work I overheard a big-bosomed (sp?), dehiscent, baby-boomer gal waxing orgasmic over his performance in Iowa, saying something like "I was watching bill clinton on tv over the weekend, and it was like he could say follow me to the moon and everyone would follow. My goodness what a charismatic man."

It took all my reserve not to ask her to 'pick two' ala Moe and continue....

I DESPISE THAT MAN LIKE 'EFFING POISON!

[tet68]

"When somebody tells you the people who are running for president aren't big, they just mean they aren't famous yet."

This is purely illustrative of X42's thinking.
The fact that they might bring some needed intelligence,
some political acumen, some reason to the office means nothing, only famousness, it's ALL about YOU isn't it.

Actually bill what it means is, that the 9 dwarfs
don't stand a chance against George W. Bush.

[crz]

I will vote for him because he has done one hell of a job and because he will be the republican candidate. I will line up behind any republican who wins the nomination because there is no other alternative in any other party that even can come close. All the democrats have is National Socialism.
Been a republican all my life and if republicans cant get over this in fighting they may well become the minority party. Line up behind the party. The issues can be settled later within the party.

[gramho12]

I DESPISE THAT MAN LIKE 'EFFING POISON!

Don't hold back - now tell us how you really feel

[concerned about politics]

"I was watching bill clinton on tv over the weekend, and it was like he could say follow me to the moon and everyone would follow. My goodness what a charismatic man."

The guy is fugly. There's no attractiveness in him at all, at any level. That bimbo has extremely low self esteem.

BTW, the liberal followers of the antiChrist will be the same way.
My guess is the wheat is being separated from the chaff right before our eyes.
The sheep of rightousness separated from the goats of liberalism.

[AlbionGirl]

I'm sorry, did I offend you?

[zencat]

Sorry Bill, it ain't gonna happen.

Bush is in far better shape than many think. Sure Bush's approval is down a little, but not like the sensationalist liberal media has portrayed it.

Still, let's not become complacent and everyone work hard for a Bush landslide. It could also impact the House and Senate.

Some sugguestions to help re-elect President Bush:

1. Donate to Bush-Cheney '04 re-election campaign.
http://www.georgewbush.com

2. Join the Republican National Committee.
http://www.rnc.org/

3. Put a Bush 2004 bumper-sticker on your car, buy a Bush hat or t-shirt and wear it around. I get more complients and thumbs up on my Bush hat than anyone would believe. It shows grass root support.
http://www.georgewbushstore.com/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/scstore/bush_cheney_04_line.htm?L+scstore+qbgg9331+1063155855

4. Get involved with a your local Republican party and work the Bush campaign in 2004. Canvass, do literature drops, work a get out the vote phone bank.

5. Tell a relative, friend, or co-worker what a great job you think President Bush is doing.

6. Never back down from your beliefs!

[f.Christian]

The buzz is, the Academy is considering giving Bill and Hillary Clinton ... The Julius and Ethel Rosenberg --- Lifetime Achievement Award. Let’s face it - who is more deserving?

[joesnuffy]

Now if ole Belialzabubba would just stand nose to nose with good ole GW
and repeat that hog slop
I bet we would see just who was "beatable" ...and never mind '04 ...I'm talking right now!

[timydnuc]

Hillary is ready to jump. This is the perfect indication.

Bring the b!@ch on, let's get it started. What is she waiting for? I want the battle royale to get started, right this minute!

[SwinneySwitch]

"The American people, not 5 percent of them know they gave me a tax cut and then kicked children out of after-school programs," said Clinton..."

I didn't know we kicked children out of after-school programs? Oh the humanity!

Maybe they could go home after-school and do their home work then?

[Spirited]

"Clinton has said however that he has no plans to endorse a candidate for the White House during the primary campaign.'

Guess that will wait for Hil.

[soozla]

Tell Bubba to "bring it on..........."!!!!!!!!!

[Davis]

Howard Dean Cartoon

[anniegetyourgun]

You're right...the game is afoot....leading to her coronation in Boston.

[Arkady]

I was wrong. I didn't think the Bent-One could demean the office as a former president more than he did while he occupied it. He'll probably beat the odds and live longer than arafat to boot....at least we can look forward to stomping his "wyfe" in an election some time soon.
Tell young people to become historians or publishers...there should be plenty of work for the next generation, his side desperately revising....the other in putting forth the facts about this scumbag.

[Molly Pitcher]

If there's one thing which would guarantee the mobilizing of the conservative base for '04, it would be Hillary and more appearances like the ones the odious former President made this weekend in Iowa and California.

[mom-7]

In your dreams billy boy. He still has not a clue as to what he did to this country.

[anniegetyourgun]

I picked up a few minutes of the steak-fry on CSPAM. Is it my imagination or is Billyjoebob getting faster and looser with reality than ever before? He's also starting to sound more like a good-old-boy than most Georgia state troopers. NY appears to have done nothing to refine his act.

[mtbopfuyn]

Well, I'm getting tired too. Sick and tired of seeing that scum on every channel 24/7. Is he ever going to just goooo awaaaaay?

[CyberAnt]

Don't listen to what x42 says, watch what Hillary does. If x42 really believes Bush is beatable .. Hillary will enter the race. If Hillary doesn't enter the race .. Bush will win - with all of our effort!!

[sweetliberty]

"Makes you wonder what Bill would have done differently to "unite the world" with Islamic terrorists."

He would have probably entertained them at the White House....for a price of course.

[Molly Pitcher]

He could be, but remember - EVEN THO WE'RE SEEING HIM MORE THAN WE LIKE - it's still less than when he was President, so maybe that difference skews our assessment.

And if you understand the above statement, you're doing pretty well! LOL

[sweetliberty]

"He still has not a clue as to what he did to this country."

He still has not a clue as to doesn't care what he did to this country.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Clinton also accused Bush of mishandling the US-led war on terror.

Whatever, Clintoon...by now we all know American security and victory are not part of your thought processes.

[cksharks]

Would someone please tell this piece of shit that he said he was beatable in 2000. OOOPPPPPSSSSS
