When will this creature go away?

[steve-b]

Like he did anything about that stuff when he was president. What a jerk.

[mombonn]

I despise clintbilly and his evil wife with every fiber of my being.

[DWPittelli]

Let's see, the disease started in Africa, the treatments comes from U.S. science, but the U.S. "owes" the Africans? We're spending more on AIDS treatment overseas than we did 2 years ago, when Clinton was President, but of course "it's not enough." 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.

[dirtboy]

"I'm all for fighting in Afghanistan . . . but no one believes that we can build a safe world just by preventing and punishing bad things," Clinton said

Yeah, but it's a good start. Ya should have tried it occasionally during your frickin' eight years in office.

Clinton also talked about the choices confronting a former president over the role he should play in his post-White House years.

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."

Slick, we'll deal with it if you stick to golfing. Be sure to invite OJ and the Rodham brothers from time to time, you'll make a splendid foursome. Now I'd much rather you take a taxpayer-paid vacation at Leavenworth, but I'll settle for you golfing the rest of your sorry life away...

[Remole]

Clinton's comments reflect the view that an issue is only important if it has the President's attention and if the President has made a "ground-breaking" and "breathtaking" address on the matter within the last 3 weeks.

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. Whatever Bush is not talking about, the Dems will point out that Bush is overlooking, not caring, etc.

One wonders what an ex-prez is doing in attempting to diminish the war on terrorism in favor of appeasing the AIDS special interest groups. I mean--how creepy can a perjured, unable to practice law, disgraced, arrogant, creepy, pasty ex-president be?
Could it be that dreams of campaign cash rolling in from homosexual special interest groups is his primary goal?
Or could it be that he misses the spotlight?
Could it be that he is jealous of President Bush's determination to fight terror and wants to tear if apart?
Perhaps billy, himself has contacted AIDS along with all of his other suspected STD battles?
Golly------is ol billie willy searching for an issue to grasp onto that would make him appear more CONCERNED about American welfare that President Bush?

Isn't billy boy just a supremo piglet?

[EternalHope]

Based on the number of people with the disease in the U.S., AIDS already gets much more than its share of federal spending.

I must have missed it, so tell me again: Why should a disease resulting from life style choices get special emphasis?

(I'm sure its not because of special interest politics... )

[Corporate Law]

Bill, consider that your own behavior will probably contribute more to the spread of STDs than anything the Bush Administration might do to try to stop this spread. You are so full of yourself that your catching of any of these diseases is probably the only thing that makes you realize it. But then again, I doubt that.

[Fred Mertz]

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

This guy is so irrelevant. Ho-hum.

[dirtboy]

Former President Bill Clinton took several swipes here Tuesday at the Bush administration for focusing on the war against terrorism at the expense of the deepening AIDS epidemic.

What else would one expect from a Democrat, and especially the Slickmeister? The action in Afghanistan is the United States protecting itself against its enemies and is a legitimate use of federal power. The AIDS epidemic is the most avoidable epidemic in human history, and could be ended if people exercised self-control and resonsibility for their own actions - but since they won't, Clinton feels it is the responsibility of government to save them from their own folly. Talk about a completely skewed value system...

[MrB]

Let me get this straight.

Our government, using the threat of its monopoly on the legal use of deadly force to take money from people who earn it.

Then, this money is to be given to people who, despite education on the subject, continue to contemptuously behave in a manner that spreads a deadly plague.

And, we're to keep on throwing this money down the rat hole that is Africa.

I presented this argument to a leftist. He responded that "we can't just turn a blind eye!"

[Militiaman7]

The sorry has been is hoping for a cure before he croaks.

[truthkeeper]

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

[Sabertooth]

How unseemly.

[Argus]

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.

[KSCITYBOY]

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.....

[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.

[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.
