Just when you think they can't get any stupider they only prove their situation has a long way to go before hitting rock bottom!

The only thing I can ever remember Clinton stopping, was the landings, taxiing and take offs from LAX, while he got himself a $200 dollar haircut. What a waste, a $200 dollar hair cut for a 2 cent head.

Thank God and Greyhound that critter is gone. Too bad he won't shut up.

These loony libs should hold a seance to bring back the nuance.

He used the date of 4/01 simply as cover in order to write what he truly feels.

The 'rats and DUmmies got a big yuck out of it.

Well if that's their attempt at tossing a little absurdity into the mag as a joke, it was a miserable failure, since the level of absurdity wasn't much, if any, over that of their usual editorial content.

Is that why the 9/11 murderers started training on his watch?

Because that is a FACT, even his most stalwart defenders don't absolve BJ of some responsibility for 9/11.

W was in office less than a year when it happened.

If you don't think Alter was serious, then you don't know Alter.

If you don't think Alter was serious, then you don't know her.

That says it all, and I am a women. This guy is a total idiot! nuff said!

Nuance? Surely they meant nuisance.

That's a good way to put it. The thought that crossed my mind was, "No matter how much you polish it, it's still a turd."

After three years of George Bush’s flailings, who doesn’t yearn for Clinton’s steady, nuanced leadership?

That's the most insane rhetorical question I've ever heard. Unbelievable.

"With a serious and non-ideological foreign policy team which had already thwarted at least two major terrorist attacks, there's every reason to believe that if voters could have elected Bill Clinton to a third term, September 11th would have been just a day just like any other." – Newsweek Senior Editor Jonathan Alter..."

Tell me this a piece from the Onion? Perhaps Jonathan missed the first WTC attack, followed by the multiple attacks waged against America. The hillarity of this is that according to OBL himself, not only was American a "paper tiger" after Somalia, he issued a declaration of war against America after Clinton's failed Afghan/Sudan attack on him. Of course that was also after both our embassies were hit, resulting in more injuries than were suffered on 9/11.

The irony in all this, is GW came into office promising to withdraw from conflicts around the globe...he ran almost as an isolationist and gave no impression otherwise. It wasn't until "after" 9/11 that Bush's policy changed. The idea that Clinton was loved among our enemies in the world is a joke. Hell, read some of the Arab press releases as they even accused Clinton of "wagging the dog" to distract from Monica. It's not our allies I worry about; it's our enemies...and CLinton made plenty of them.

remember when they were all stuck on the word gravitas?
hope I spelled that right. It's pronounced Grah vee tahs
I can't believe that yutz wrote that article!
Doesn't he know it takes a while for actions that a president carried out to take effect on the nation.
The "bad" economy, and 9/11 were not because of GWBush!
gimme a break.
I'm thinking that these poor, misinformed, pinheads should really be brought to the light.
Anyone interested in leading the way for these lost souls?

Democrats Need Boost from Bill

Bill Schneider: “Lately, Kerry’s poll numbers have been drooping. Some Democrats worry his flip-flops could leave them out in the wilderness for another four years. They want a candidate who will arouse their base and get those poll numbers rising. Enter Bill Clinton. No Democrat stirred more passion at their recent unity dinner, and some law professors argue the Constitution does not bar him from serving as Vice President, just a third term as President. If Kerry keeps running a flaccid campaign, he’ll need the political equivalent of Viagra. A Kerry-Clinton ticket might be the right prescription for Democrats who want to mount a stiff challenge to President Bush.”
Judy Woodruff: “An exciting possibility. Thanks, Bill.”
– Exchange on CNN’s Inside Politics, April 1.

The followups worry me that many Freepers can't recognize a joke. We're doomed.

Um, I'm pretty sure that ole Bill would have been busy lubing his cigar on 9/11, had he been lucky enough to earn a third term... oh, wait...did I say lubing his cigar? Oops, I meant LIGHTING his cigar, my bad...
I'm pretty sure there are support groups out there for you.
I hope you can find one, being that disillusioned must really hurt.
I'll say a prayer for you, Mr. Notch
