“So, if the election were held today, which candidate do you think would give the best concession speech to George W. Bush?…”

Good one! Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

And here we go again! These boneheads think this will work one more time.

JACKSON, Miss. - Former President Bill Clinton accused President Bush of spending more time fighting the war on terrorism than on domestic issues during a commencement speech at Tougaloo College.

"I supported the president when he asked for authority to stand up against weapons of mass destruction in Iraq (news - web sites), but we can't be forever strong abroad if we don't keep getting better at home," Clinton said Sunday to a crowd of about 8,000.

Clinton also criticized Bush's position on affirmative action and tax cuts just two days after the President formally kicked off his re-election campaign. full story

Bleah. A Tougaloo College alumna attends commencement and gushes over x42 as a "home boy," story here. Haley Barbour, who's running for MS governor, declined to return Clinton's criticism of the president:

During his speech, Clinton criticized President George W. Bush's tax-cut plan. On Monday, Republican gubernatorial candidate Haley Barbour responded to Clinton's comment.

"Well, I am not going to critize President Clinton," Barbour said. "We're always glad when a former president gets here. Frankly, I'll be tickled when he comes back to campaign for Gov. Musgrove."

Barbour was speaking across the state Monday to promote his work force training reforms. source.
