What I saw was the last gasp of a seriously weakened old man. Somehow, in recent time he passed me in age and continues to accelerate the aging.

When a man's life revolves around drugs and whores, it takes a major toll on him after a while.

I think the loss of weight and his heart condition has a lot to do with it. Have you seen Dick Cheney lately? He has lost a lot of weight and, even though it is healthier for him, he looks terribly gaunt and sickly. Not to mention his heart problems.

As much as I despise Obama and his Alinsky methods Clinton still rates a lower level in the Inferno. A total s...bag.

That's exactly what I thought!

But, then, that would have stimulated the private sector, instead of enlarging government, and besides, wouldn't that help some people who make more than........?

Actually, it would have done nothing at all. Obama can propose anything he wants, but the House and Senate have to pass a bill for the proposal to have any effect.

It's funny how the Jonah Goldbergs of the world impute superhuman powers to presidents -- especially, it seems, to presidents with whom they disagree.

He’s on some kind of vegan diet after his heart attack.
He looks like a wreck!

Barry is -19 abyss rating today. Lowest level of strongly approve ever at 22 percent. -9 in overall disapproval over overall approval. Barry is the most incompetent, petulant, narcissistic, partisan President ever and had no business being elected. I hold the media, and ignorant voters allowing themselves to be manipulated, responsible!

"I'm going to let him speak" - ???

Couldn't even be gracious enough to say, "I appreciate his willingness to speak . . . ."???

"...on Friday, Obama recruited Clinton to help save his more ambitious presidency from ruin.

Jonah.

I'll bet it's more than that.

I suspect that he's already agreed to let Hillary be the veep candidate in 2012. (They can easily have their docs cook up a convenient lie to say that Biden has a serious "health issue".)

Just my guess, I have no genuine info.

Clinton’s election was the first time I found myself older than the president even though I was only 48 at the time. It seemed then that he looked younger than I did. Now he looks older than I do and gives me the impression that I could swat him down with the back of one hand. I can lift more weight now than I could then.

Not even Barry would be idiot enough to run for reelection with Hillary as his VP would he? What if he were to be unfortunate enough to win? What was the title of that string of movies Charles Bronson made about the vigilante? Oh, yeah, DEATH WISH.

my dad is 84 y.o. and looks better than Bill Clinton — this man has been ravaged by STDs or something!

Two words: Dorian Gray.

I concur with you.

If we were going by intentions, Ozero would be worse (I think he wants what Bill Ayers has always wanted), but I think Clinton has done worse than Obama has ever done.

Key words: Arkancide, high treason.

My ref to Barry's 'Bell Curve' is prolly not what you (or many others) may think.

The Race Hustlers go nuts over the mere mention o f 'Bell Curve'.
Then again they also go ballistic over 'Black Hole' and 'niggardly' too.

Those STDs will do that to a man.

35 years of marriage to Hillary will do that to a man.

Every so often the voters in this country have to elect a president who is against everything they stand for (Johnson, Carter, Obambi) just because he makes them feel good about themselves.

These failing presidents serve to reinforce the adage, "The best argument against Democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter."

A few weeks ago, I would have totally agreed with you.

Now, it just seems apparent (from a between-the-lines, "tea leaves" sort of way) that it has occurred to Marxist Obama's minders that Mister Biden is an object of too much ridicule, and is a public liability. Mrs. Rhodam, on the other hand, still has an entrenched base of support (that he suddenly needs).

This would be (they might think) a good way to counter a primary challenge.

No proof, just one of my amazingly accurate (okay, sometimes accurate) predictions.

She’s another one that’s looking tired and haggard. I don’t think she has the stamina to run again, but I could be wrong.
