What this also shows is Obama’s lack of star power to sell his health care debacle so the ‘esteemed’ Bill Clinton has to be brought in for a little oomph.
Big Gun? No, big gums. What a mouth.
The lil' bent one.
There's more, much more to be revealed from this bag of puke.
There he is, pointing that finger again.
His message is pass anything. Tort reform would be a good start.
Health Care was Hillary’s baby. It is so odd that they never include her in any of the discussions. Now, they strut Bill out there and, again, leave her hidden from sight.
If they have to send Clinton in, does it not indicate some weakness of BO’s influence?
He has brought out a rapist to tell us what to do.
That is one thing I will never forgive Bill Clinton for.
More proof that the current president has no balls or management capability.

Circus distraction - send in the Clowns?
Sometimes I believe we, as the opposition give these cretins far too much credit for intelligent strategy & ...sometimes I fear his supporters are all being led like sheep to the slaughterhouse.
We must try to use facts & friendly persuasion on our fellow citizens who are still in love with this lunatic or it’s going to end badly for all Americans.
Democrat Party all the time because Democrats are enablers.
“Surely even Bill Clinton isn’t THIS stupid? In any sane country he would be literally laughed out of the country.”
Bill Clinton was preaching to the choir (i.e. people as ignorant as he is):
“New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg called the talk “a lesson in Economics 105”
The CBO has written repeatedly that high health spending does NOT affect our economic competitiveness. Whatever employers spend on health care is money they otherwise would have spent on workers’ wages. Health benefits alter the mix of compensation provided, but not the total amount. The reason the US has the highest compensation per worker in the world is because its workers are the most productive: THAT’s Econ 101.
Should we reform health care so that workers get more wages in their pockets instead of seeing them squandered on excess health benefits encouraged by our tax code? Absolutely, but Obama ruled out the simplest and most straightforward way of doing this: replacing the tax exclusion (which gives Bill Gates a 50% discount on his health benefits—courtesy of US taxpayers—while his janitor probably gets a tax-financed subsidy of only 15%) with tax credits. Why does Obama oppose the most efficient approach to fixing our health care mess? Because it was John McCain’s very sensible proposal for reforming health crae in the 2008 election and because unions vehemently oppose the idea.
You can rest assured that Bill Clinton never will lecture Obama on how he is letting ideology and politics get in the way of good health policy.
Kiss it, Bill.
