Clinton bashes Bush for lack of focus on AIDS

Slick lecturing on AIDS is like Al Capone lecturing on gun control. Will this disgusting creep NEVER go away??

[Alberta's Child]

Furthermore, as other posters on other threads have pointed out, this speech by Clinton is part of a wide-scale plan to disrupt the approval ratings currently enjoyed by President Bush.

That would be an interesting explanation, but Clinton's speeches are always given to groups of people who would have voted for Democrats anyway.

Most people in this country do not give a sh!t about AIDS, including most of those who say they do. In the case of Rainbow/PUSH, Clinton is basically giving the same tired speech he gave in Africa a couple of weeks ago, only this time he's dealing with an audience of people who can't even spell "AIDS."

[Sabertooth]

How unseemly.

There's so much vintage, grade-A Clinton crap here it's almost too easy, but this is particularly rich:

A former president can either "be a has-been and play golf and pretend you were a Republican, even if you weren't," Clinton told a roomful of 1,600 diners at the Hyatt Regency Chicago, who chuckled in response. "Or you have to find some way to be useful."

At least those Republican ex-presidents didn't cheat their way around the golf course. They didn't go all over the world taking big money to give speeches bad-mouthing their successors and their country, either. Future chief executives will have their work cut out for them beating this clown to the bottom of the list as worst president in history.

Simple reply is: Bill you were so busy getting bj's from young porkettes that you forgot to take care of bin laden... even after he attacked our ship, ambushed our guys' in somolia etc.... Bill you should have focused on NOT allowing the transfers of hitech misile technology to communist China.... Instead you we worried about pawing Kathleen Wiley... Who will care when this self-centered prick dies.....

[Remole]

You are correct--Clinton is here preaching to the choir.

But his remarks get picked up by the media--and the hope among Dems is that, by a steady stream of speeches and other news items, the public forms the opinion that GW is not connected to the real world (the same accusation leveled against his father).

[cardinal4]

He could contribute his part to the "fight against aids" by lopping it off.

LOL

[Howlin]

but no one believes that we can build a safe world just by preventing and punishing bad things," Clinton said

Wouldn't want to PUNISH people for their irresponsibility, would we?

Wouldn't want people to be responsible for their own actions now, would we?

[dirtboy]

Perhaps we'll need an HIV-positive President before the President can really "feel our pain," but with Clinton out of office, that seems unlikely.

Speaking of which, seeing as Clinton is so concerned about AIDS, then why didn't he practice safe sex with Monica? Cigars don't count...

[JessicaDragonet]

He doesn't know what "is" is....and he obviously doesn't know what "ex" means either. A lounge lizard...roaming from table to table, always dreading closing time and having to go home alone.

[concerned about politics]

"And this is a disease that's 100 percent preventable,"

So stop it. It's absolutely free, too! What's the problem?
It's a "lifestyle choice." Chose life, or chose death, and leave the rest of us out of it.

[chiefqc]

Why is this pervert so concerned about aids now?

Maybe he got it from one of his sex bimbos.

Nah, just like the song goes" Only the good die young", which means that he could live for a very,very,very long time.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[FlyVet]

Clinton urged world leaders to spend the $10 billion a year recommended by experts to fight AIDS globally, with the United States contributing about $2 billion.

Clinton urges mass transfer of wealth, with corresponding kickbacks for offshore account.

[dirtboy]

Wouldn't want to PUNISH people for their irresponsibility, would we? Wouldn't want people to be responsible for their own actions now, would we?

Oh course not ... that is, like, so REPUBLICAN and MEAN SPIRITED! War is Peace and Knowledge is Ignorance and Ignorance is Bliss and Bliss should come with taxpayer subsidies or something like that...

[Howlin]

Why am I not surprised that this pond scum believes that crap.

Can anybody direct me to all the links of articles about what Clinton did during his eight years?

I mean, other than hang out with them all?

[Bahbah]

What mombonn said. My consistent reaction to these stories of Clinton speaking AND SOMEONE LISTENING is just head shaking and jaw dropping.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Can't think of a more appropriate spokesman.

[Mudboy Slim]

"So what you do," a relaxed Clinton said, "is swap power for influence."

RE-IMPEACH. CONVICT. DETHRONE.
DISBAR. DE-PENSION. DE-LEGITIMIZE.
INDICT. CONVICT. IMPRISON. DISCARD KEY.

FReegards...MUD

[aShepard]

"And this is a disease that's 100 percent preventable," Clinton said ......and children now account for a significant number of new infections.

And I suppose you were wearing a condom while Monica was mumbling something to you... and you washed off the cigar before smoking it!
