Jim Sasser has died. The former U.S. senator, lawyer and military man who served as U.S. ambassador to China during the Bill Clinton administration was respected for his pleasant demeanor and quick intellect. He was 87.
A former Tennessee Democratic Party chairman, Sasser served Tennessee in the U.S. Senate from 1977 to 1995, partly with Republican Howard Baker and partly with fellow Democrats Al Gore and Harlan Mathews. The state has seen no Democrat hold the position since Sasser left. Clinton appointed Sasser in 1996 to serve as the sixth U.S. ambassador to China.

considering that the Clinton presidency was the spawn of what has become the complete sellout of American manufacturing to China, I would say that this man was an integral part of that sellout and had a lot of lost jobs on his hands.
people like him are ultimately why we are in the current state of affairs today.
plus he was close with Al Gore so...........
On behalf of normal hard working Americans, I say GOOD RIDDANCE.
He was ambassador when the chicoms bussed in a bunch of people to attack and trash the US Embassy.
Sasser in vandalized US Embassy.
His daughter was a club kid in Beijing who hung out, took drugs and drank with the kids of the “elite” (high ranking party members) there. She used up Embassy resources with her after hours lifestyle and gave the commies some dirt and ammo to use against us at the time. I wonder if she ever cleaned herself up.
If my memory is accurate, (no guarantee) wasn’t he the senator who insisted on calling the deficit the “daficit”?
Yup, Rush used to use that term a lot due to Sasser.
Wasser will continue to reliably vote democrat. In several states. DC. And against conservatives in every primary.
The clot shot is starting to work as designed the old and young hearts can’t deal with the clots time for the booster folks.
“We we we juss wanna we jess wanna hep you. We jess wanna hep you. Yeah we jes wanna screw you!”
According to Rush Limbaugh, Sasser liked to whine about the “dafycits”.
Thanks for confirming he was the one who said that, and Rush used to make fun of.
The definition of “statesman” is a dead politician.
Thank you. I’ve been trying for some time to remember who it was. When I saw his name in this post, something clicked in my aged brain .
Tennessee voters kicked Sasser out of the Senate.
Sasser.
Sassholes.
‘Served’...LOL.
