Bill Spars With Obama Supporter (Claims Clinton Hit Him)
MSNBC ^ | February 17, 2008

Posted on 02/17/2008 2:55:40 PM PST by RWR8189

CANTON, OH -- Robert Holeman came to Timken High School here today with a message to deliver to Bill Clinton. He did -- and he said the former president wasn’t happy about it.

Clinton spoke to a capacity crowd in this Northeast Ohio town, the third of five events today in the Buckeye State. He told voters that the contest was “the power of speeches against the promise of solutions by a world-class change maker.”

Throughout the event, as Clinton made his case for his wife, Holeman’s dissenting voice could be heard. At times he simply shouted Obama’s name. When Clinton would set up a sure applause line, Holeman could be heard heckling. As soon as Clinton finished speaking, the Canton native made a beeline to the ropeline to give Clinton a piece of his mind.

Holeman said that Clinton responded by saying Obama came after him first. Holeman also described Clinton’s reaction to him as “irate.”

“I think he even hit me in the face with his hand,” he said. “He did give me a little pop. It was okay, because I understand his tenacity for his wife.” Clinton did engage Holeman for a few minutes, at times pointing directly at him. It was unclear whether he did make physical contact, however.

There was a video made years ago that was widely available (I rented it in a video store about ‘93 or ‘94) that was kind of a cinema verete [SP] account of the 1992 krinton campaign. Anyway, in this video, bill was shown meeting supporters after some speech or whatnot. In the line was a young man that shouted out to the bent one: ‘Hey Bill, how many babies did you kill today?’ Krinton’s face went from Mr. Happy to killing rage in a millisecond and he turned on the kid. The kid (some college age moron) quickly realized that he screwed up and he rolled over and went all kissy-face by hurriedly explaining that he was just trying to get bill ready for the kind of heckling the mean ol’ right-wingers would give him as he continued to campaign. Krinton caught himself and cracked one of his psychotic smiles and said - jokingly - that he just about responded by smacking the kid. Hee-hee-hee, ho-ho-ho. Then he went on his way and the kid was smiling sheepishly thinking he did his part to steel his man for the cruelties of the pro-lifers.

How little things change.

I am very sorry we’re gonna lose the elections over these loonies, I truly am.

But, reading stories like this make it so much easier to swallow. I can’t wait for the real fun to begin, after the “empty suit” is inaugurated.

ROFLMAO!!!

Closest to confirmation—since Slick never released his medical records—was a reported statement by his brother to a cocaine dealer in Arkansas, “Need some extra for my brother, he’s got a nose like a vacuum cleaner.”

And RE: post 56, I’ll admit to little knowledge of diabetes. That said, Bill’s appearance does change dramatically from time to time. Red face and eyes, gaunt, etc., but the degrees come and go. I realize that photography and camera lighting can have significant effect, but in Bill’s case there is more going on. He does seem to have more than average personal energy, which I assume comes from his spirit (and perhaps, with some pharmaceutical assistance?).

I think you are both right. This guy is a plant. No way he would’ve lasted that long heckling the Impeached One’s speech and then getting close enough to him to actually get within touching distance of Clinton. This is the ‘Iron my shirt’ game again. All to paint the Obama supporters as aggressive, immature and ill-suited for leadership - all true. But for the Clinton team this should all be a glance in the mirror.

Most of us knew he was a coward and a bully long ago. I guess he figures being the ex-President protects him from getting knocked on his ass. Do we really want this SOB back in the White House?

There would have been a puddle and mess on the floor before he fainted. As much as I despise Billary, I really think Bill would have been alittle more savvy that to hit this ninny in front of cameras. This nitwit was probably so high on drugs or Obama infatuation that he dreamt that he was hit. The whole Obama thing is a personality cult and a dangerous one at that.

Holeman was lucky that Bill Clinton didn’t bite through his lip and rape him.

People on drugs often don’t know what is going on around them. I was once going to some event and was entering a parking lot at about 5mph behind a hippie type in a jeep when he jerked to a stop, got out of his vehicle and asked me if I hit him (with my car). I said “Look at the distance between our cars now.” which was at least six feet (as close as I’d got to him when he jammed on his brakes), and he then said “Well, I thought you’d tapped me.”, got back into his jeep and drove off.

Definitely a drug-related non-incident in this case.

It feels so strange rooting for the Clinton's.

Obama must be stopped!

Years of cocaine. Bill is unstable.
Doug, are there any reliable reports of this?

I admit that I have had my suspicions.

There was a thread a while back recounting the overdose Bill had and Hillary backing a doctor up against the wall with threats. Sorry I can’t find it. The Clintons are every kind of dirty there is. Bill does look like a stroke waiting to happen.

Miss Chuck, could this be the FR post to which you refer?

Quite a thread, actually, with several "heady" articles of the time re Bill's (alleged) chemical experiments.

(Interesting how the FR thread came up first on an online search with the key words... "Bill Clinton Overdose.")

I think that this might be critically important Internet history, should Hillary Rodham "win" the Dem candidacy.
