Chris Matthews: Clinton never had shot at greatness/never got opportunity Bush was given Tuesday

San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 09/13/2001 | Chris Matthews

[arkfreepdom]

Being POTUS itself is a chance at greatness, and he failed at that......miserably.

[Pres Raygun]

Why would America's enemies attack when their man was in the White House?

[victim soul]

Ditto. He earned his nickname "Boy Clinton" every day he was in office.

Nice to know that the murder of 5,000 innocent people was considered an opportunity. Chris Matthews is a Clinton boot-licking idiot!

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Clinton bombed at being a man.

"I would have preferred being president during World War II" he said one night in January 1995. "I'm a person out of my time." -Clinton

What a clueless, sh!t-for-brains, typical @sshole thing to say. Allow me to paraphase: "I wish I could have gotten credit for ending World War II". If he'd been there, we probably would have lost.

And how could Mathews say that? Could any president (other than the bent one) have asked for such a tragedy?

[Nogbad]

Do you expect anyone to read your 50 mile long postings?

Stick to the point.

[karth]

How about just a plain idiot. Where did such a horrible notion come from that this is an "opportunity?"

[VA Advogado]

This would have been a great discussion thread if you hadn't cluttered it up with all that useless junk. Would you like to start a clean one?

"I would have preferred being president during World War II" he said one night in January 1995. "I'm a person out of my time."

And if wishes were horses, the Swaztika would be the flag. Clinton is a has been, though never was.

[freedom4ever]

Thank God!!

Clinton may have been considered great if he had been one of the men on the flight who crashed the plane into the ground of Pennsylvania rather than into a building full of Americans. However, Clinton would never be at such risk when flying because unlike ordinary citizens - He is protected by ARMED secret servicemen, even when flying on a plane.

good job ... keep with yer style

[Alas]

I am trying hard to decide who Monica would look more like if she were to get a man's hair cut. Chris matthews, danny rather or petey jennings.

Nukem

[mattdono]

Only boot-licking? I think Chris is licking a lot more than that.

[afuturegovernor]

"I would have preferred being president during World War II" Clinton

For which side, Germany or Japan?

You are very talented with graphics.....but may I suggest some restraint to save loading time and FR bandwidth?

I read in one of the trash papers in the grocery store checkout line that Hillary is going to reveal in her new book that she was also cheating on Bill, that she was not sitting idly by while he strayed from their marriage. The article states that Hillary feels that this revelation will show her as strong enough to be a president. The article also says that Hillary demanded the right to censor Bill's book or she would divorce him.

I wonder if Hillary will back off her intentions now that the mood of the country has changed so.
