If this son of a bitch wants to open investigation, I'd like nothing better. Obstruction of Justice and wintess tampering would be a good start.
Yep, the failures were on the part of the State of Louisiana. Putting aside New Orleans, is there any place in Louisiana were relief efforts were going smoothly? How is it that other States can handle hurricanes without neglecting the safety of their citizens?
Yeah, Bill, let's do a thorough investigation of this as well as a thorough investigation of your derelictio of duty when you were president.
The Hurricane did not dissuade several dozen gays dressed in tutus and Grass skirts from marching down Bourbon street to the delight of spectators throwing beads from balconies. The uniform of the day for the spectators was birthday suits.
Did not see this in the main stream press?
Bill Clinton the liar, adulterer, backstabber, draft dodger, traitor and an all around descending colon.
From the looks of the grifter, he might not be here to dance on the grave of the country.
When you lie down with dogs, you get fleas.
To Clinton's point, when has the federal government NOT failed the American people. The military doesn't count because it has a somewhat separate management with a different code of conduct and serious consequences for failure (people die).
Government has failed us on Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Welfare, illegal immigration, Civil Rights, Pork, national security, the list goes on. In the history of federal mismanagement and corruption Clinton's is one of the worst administrations ever so he and his wife need to sit down and shut up.
The Clintons spent ALL LAST WEEK in Kaui, staying in an exclusive luxury retreat and dining on fine food. It's so easy to take pot shots at the relief effort when you are tanned and rested from a week in 5 Star accomodations.

Maybe they got indigestion watching the news
-" Hanalei Gourmet owner Tim Kerlin says the former president picked up a deli sandwich, while the women in the party enjoyed a restaurant appetizer specialty: deep-fried crispy artichoke hearts."
" The former president was seen hiking on Na Pali Coast-Kalalau Trail on Monday, and playing golf at Princeville, all the while with U.S. Secret Service agents at the ready."
" A North Shore resident said she spotted Sen. Clinton and daughter Chelsea dining at The Hanalei Gourmet, and otherwise enjoying the Princeville area ."
Hillary Antoinette Clinton- " Let them eat MRE's !! "
No question about it. He and the co-president had 8 years to rebuild the levees and they didn't do anything about it. Instead he spent his time in the Oval Office with his pants around his ankles.
this from a man whose AG burned 50+ Americans in Waco after 50+ days??
And W brought this discredited, disbarred, diseased sorry waste of carbon in as his fundraise?.
The mind reels.
yeah willie...Blanco and Nagin failed the people miserably. Now he is echoing about a commision to look into this. Echoing wifey's words, eh willie?
I hope he reminds his wife of this next time she mentions national health care
Flawed title, should read: The Louisiana electorate failed to hire serious minded grown ups for serious government positions.
I wonder if I am ever going to see that headline?
" Former President Bill Clinton on Monday said the government "failed" the thousands ..."
Bubba should know, he failed 280 million Americans.
Once again, bite the lip shead a tear and don't do a damn thinkg and the press eats it up. When it comes to Governemnt failures, Bill Clinton knows......from experience!
Louisiana proves that state and local government officials need to get serious about homeland security and disaster plans.
For a city and state not to have a well thought out and practiced emergency plan in this post 9/11 world borders on criminal neglect.
