AMBRIDGE - Former president Bill Clinton yesterday blamed himself for not building stronger ties with the Muslim world during the 1990s, and criticized his administration and that of his predecessor, George H. W. Bush, for abandoning Afghanistan after the Soviet occupation of that country ended in 1989.

I think he knows that he is responsible. If you knew the intelligence he had while he was president, it would be obvious to you he is responsible. History will show he is responsible: Attacking a U. S. Navy ship and blowing up two embassies, plus a failed attempt on the WTC at the beginning of his watch should have evoked an effective response.
Now, he's doing damage control. He has to! Remember, Slick Willy can fool some of the people all the time (they work as journalists and vote democratic) but the rest of America, who were once called the silent majority, sit and watch in amazement.
"Bill Clinton's legacy sits as a smouldering ruin at the corner of Liberty and West Streets (in NYC)". Even some demonrats will start to figure out the obvious (sarcasm off)!
I bet Clinton's Cash&CarryCYA speeches offer a preview to what the tone of his book will be. Phoney self-serving apologies, that are cloaked in deceptive 'but it wasn't really my fault' language.
Bill Clinton is not an idiot.
Bill Clinton is evil. Bill Clinton is narcissitic. Bill Clinton is a megalomaniac. Bill Clinton is a psychopath. But Bill Clinton is not an idiot.
His goals are just different from everybody elses, so it is sometimes difficult to understand the logic of his actions. Given that his numero uno and one true goal is the everlasting glory and power of Bill Clinton, we should look at his statements in this light. Given that that is his only priority, and that he would be willing to sacrifice his country, his honor and the lives of innocents for that goal, how do his comments make sense?
I will tell you how.
Bill Clinton knows that this is going to be a long, protracted struggle. That the time will come, quite soon, when people tire of the fight, and start looking for other solutions to the problem. That eventually, a large number of people are going to look to buy their way out of this difficulty. And there is Bill Clinton, laying the foundation of the next strategy. After we are tired of war and are looking to give peace a chance.
Now, even Bill Clinton must know that this strategy is doomed to disaster. Radical Islam has never been able to coexist with the infidel. It is not inequities of wealth distribution that have had the Islamic holy warriors beheading their neighbors for the past thousand years. But his goal is not to solve the problem. His goal is to have the people turn to him to have him lead them. That he will lead them to disaster is beside the point.
Bill Clinton knows that the pattern of East/West conflict, between Capitalism and Communism, has been ingrained into the collective psyche of America. Our nation has been told for generations that our greed and nationalism is the cause of suffering in the World. That we exploit workers everywhere and consume an disproportionate share of nature's bounty. After nearly 100 years, the attitudes are axiomatic. They only wait for somebody like Bill Clinton to come along and harness them to some greater cause. In this case, the greater cause is the everlasting glory and power of Bill Clinton.
There are people out there who just assume that this Islam/West conflict is about stuff, because they assume that that was what the old East/West conflict was about. Not only is that not true now, it was not true then. The Communist powers were not fighting us because we were rich. They were fighting us because they were bent on World domination. The rhetoric of class warfare was merely a weapon in their arsenal. Now we are turning their old weapon against ourselves, and Bill Clinton's hand is on the trigger.
Sleep tight, my little FReepers. Bill Clinton will be back, and it will be worse than anything you can possibly imagine. He will be the ruin of us all and the bringer of untold death and destruction. And he will not care about that one little bit if that death and destruction brings him back to a position of glory and power.
I actually think that they were simply too dirty to stand up to the Clinton, academia, and media alliance. Two leaders were taken out, one after another, and there was simply no one left capable of taking their place.
Gulp! Me thinks this speech was written for someone else to deliver. The only hint he had a hand in it is when he points an accusative finger at others.
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
Closer ... closer ... just a little, itty bit closer and we'll get you - f'ing scum. We've got lots of witnesses watching, waiting.
But we FReepers can't sleep tight! We must continue "banging the drum"; educating everyone we can, little by little, to prevent either of the clintons from gaining more power. And the time to start is yesterday.
OH! I remember now. The pile of dog droppings between the Bushes!
This flawed, deceitful, corrupting, insane and perverted rapist is telling ANYONE that we(they) need to examine themselves, change their ways cuz, darn it, their just not good enough...well, I just can't stand it any more.
Listening to anything this puke has to say is like eating spoonfuls o'sh*t.
Nope, won't do it.
