Bill regrets slapping down Black Lives Matter activists

“So I did something yesterday in Philadelphia. I almost want to apologize for it,” Clinton said, CBS News reported. “We’re all vulnerable to saying something we don’t like, then finding one fact that we can take out of context and then condemning somebody else. […] I rather vigorously defended my wife, as I am wont to do, and I realized, finally realized I was talking past [the activist] the way she was talking past me. We got to stop that in this country. We’ve got to start listening to each other again.”

Actually the truest liberal of all — one who is liberal in the old fashioned sense, not the current self-willed sense — would believe very much in what God believes in. Which is a degree of caring that transcends anything a human can hope to preserve in his finite mind, so that God must be called upon over and over to keep it going.

In some of Bill’s wiser and more poignant (however brief) moments, he seems to have tried to approach this. That doesn’t award him a halo; it does mean that the call of God is not in vain even when made to the proverbial stones.

Let’s not ourselves willingly fall into the folly of Eden, where we have to know it all. Let’s look for places where God might be operating, and pray to Him that there would be more.

Apologizing for a fleeting moment of unscripted truthfulness.

Typical pandering politician.

Every time Bubba does something right, which isn’t often, he has to apologize.

I saw this on Fox, Bill looks sicker every time I see him. He better vote for Hillary early because he isn’t going to make it till Election Day.

This is the mode of fallen, limited perspective humans. To say that because a person did something exceedingly wicked, nothing else was possible to paint on the canvas of that life.

This manner of relating to reality is our own fault and sometimes it can produce ridiculous results, like trying to cast people into molds they never even claimed.

Bill Clinton has had many black friends.

God rest his soul.

"Bill regrets slapping down Black Lives Matter activists"

Yeah, he probably feels as bad as when he remembered all those Black churches in Arkansas being burnt down when he was a kid.

BJ Clinton, with his strong support for affirmative action, enshrined as government policy that women, blacks, and Hispanics are inferior to white and Asian men. There is no other interpretation of these policies; they can’t expect us to regard them as “equal” while our government insists they are genetically inferior.

Actually it reminded me of the Sista Solja thing back in the 1990s. Lashing out against extremists and then walking it back. Calculated to make both sides feel like the Clintons are on their side.

Ding, ding, ding - we have a thread winnah!
