LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Former President Bill Clinton said he hopes President Bush gets the support of the United Nations before undertaking any military action against Iraq, but he said international law doesn't require that he do so. In an exclusive interview Thursday on CNN's "Larry King Live," the former president said he sees a good possibility that the international community will unite to force Iraqi President Saddam Hussein to disarm.

Clinton said Pyongyang would have 100 nuclear weapons by now if his administration had not reached the Framework Agreement with North Korea in 1994

What a flipping turd. I don't even think he realizes that he very well may be the root cause of the complete destruction of this country.

he doesn't regret not being president anymore, although he misses the work. "I like having my life back," he said.

We don't regret that either and like having our lives back, too.

"I like having my life back," he said.

Gee, I wonder what he was referring to?

I'm sure President Bush is grateful to Clinton. Especially since Bill warned our President about terrorists on his way out the door.

So says Hillary.

Yeah, and Michael Jackson is the model of a perfect parent. I think Clinton should live on Jackson's Netherland Ranch with Michael. It is apparently the land of fairytales and both Billy Boy and Wacko Jacko both believe in them.

It means, not having a nagging harridan to have to worry about. It's easier to cheat when you don't live with your wife and only see her twice a year.

" Absolutely shameless. "


The whole interview was absolutely shameless, on both sides of the table. I took the pledge against Matthews and now I take the pledge against King!
King just let him get away with lie after lie, and I after I. How anyone can associate with this sociopath, let alone give him a national platform to spew his spiel, is beyond the pale.

I still think there's a chance we can, and there's still a chance that Saddam Hussein will come to his senses and disarm," Clinton said.

Laughable, laughable. Klintoon's not nearly as insane as Saddam, but Klintoon still can't come to his senses.

. . . there are more pressing issues for the United States, such as Osama bin Laden, his al Qaeda terrorist network and North Korea restarting its nuclear program.

Osama bin Laden was offered on a plate to Clinton, many, many times, yet he refused to believe OBL was a "pressing issue." Over 3,000 innocents lost their lives thabnks to Klintoon. And he knew about al Qaeda long before they became so widespread and entrenched in so many countries and so dangerous (remember WTC I, the Cole, etc.), but he did nothing to stop it; it wasn't a "pressing issue." In fact, his inactions emboldened their actions. And N. Korea? Well, we all know what Klintoon did to help that country BECOME a "pressing issue."

. . . more money should be spent on protecting U.S. borders and ports.

Klintoon reduced our military in number and in morale; he reduced its funding and he reduced personnel to staff the CIA and FBI, thereby creating or accellerating the crisis in which we find ourselves. He did nothing to seal up our borders; rather, he gave amnesty to thousands upon thousands of illegal aliens.

Clinton said it was he who gave the final approval for Ilan Ramon . . .

Yes, we all know, everything's always about Klintoon, who must take credit for everything good and nothing bad, which defines most all of his presidency: badness gone rotten.

What a disgusting, immoral, unethical, terrorist-pardoning pig he still is.

While King is in the mood for having sh*t shoveled in the face of his viewership, he may as well ask Jimmy Carter to follow Bubba for "expert" advice on hostage negotiation and holding down interest rates.

> I just wish that Clinton would just go away.

Why? The Democrats are complaining that they "can't get their message out". It can easily be pointed out to them that Mr.Bill can get all the free TV face time he wants.

Now it might be unfortunate for them that the more the message gets out, the less people like it. Also, Mr.Bill is the figurehead, heck, the defacto leader, of the Democrats, and when people see performances like this, it trickles down on all Democrats.

Former presidents used to just fade away, and the press didn't call them on their legacies. Clinton just keeps reminding everyone of his true legacies, and invites critics to keep asking questions they might otherwise not.

I don't see a big problem here.

Current President Bush now must do in Iraq what President Clinton in eight years didn't have the courage or conviction to fix. Interesting that Slick is still trying to remake himself since his Vietnam protest days. God I hope he's offered the Oxford job, takes it, and leaves on the next plane out of this Country.
