Bill Clinton Sparks New Controversy PDF Print E-mail
by Tom McGregor    Tue, Apr 22, 2008, 04:32 PM

Bill Clinton racist.jpgWhile Sen. Hillary Clinton began her crucial election push in Pennsylvania, her husband, Bill, the former President of the U.S., sparked a new controversy by bitterly accusing Sen. Barack Obama of “playing the race card on” him.

The New York Daily News reports that, “the former President mouthed off on a Presidential radio station, declaring, ‘I think they played the race card on me. We now know, from memos from the campaign that they planned to do it all along.’”

Bill pointed out that his office is located in Harlem, a pre-dominantly African-American neighborhood in New York City. After the radio program, Bill erupted into an obscenity-laced tirade when he knew he was off-the-air.

The Daily News quotes Bill as saying, “I don’t think I can take any s*** from anybody on that, do you?

Bill was accused of making racially-charged comments against Obama during Hillary’s South Carolina primary, which may have cost her the election in the state. On the radio program Bill was asked if he regretted making those remarks and the Daily News quotes him as answering: “No.”

I am so sick of Bill Clinton and Hillary. Obama is a clean, educated public servant with no real baggage, other then what has been created by the media and the Clinton's and it's killing Bill. He is trying to recreate himself through Hillary. They have made a big deal of Obama saying "bitter"
well hell people are bitter about conditions, people are going to church more and asking God for help, people are hanging on to what ever the have for relief because they do feel government has failed them. What he said is true we do blame immigrants for lost of jobs. Obama makes all people face the truth, some just can not take TRUTH. The Clinton's cannot take truth because they don't tell the truth.

So if I spew bigotry from my mouth but spend millions of freebie government freebie dollars in a predominantly black neighborhood, then I'm immune from bigotry? The Clintons are human terds.

The race card is pathetic. It's a very weak argument at best. It avoids having to discuss the actual issues. Why talk about a lack of experience, or gaffes on foreign policy, when you can call your opponent a racist bigot? The one certain thing is that the media is sure to report it every time it's used.

I find it hilarious that the very same liberals that have thrown the race card around like they own it, are now being subjected to it. You reap what you sow.

Clinton happens. You liberals created them and sustained them. You knew what kind of people they were. Live with them. Just don't let your daughters near him. Or the truth around either of them.

Betty, you don't get it.

Wouldn't you love to hear the conversations around the clinton's dinner table? Hillary likely tells Bill to keep his mouth SHUT.
I loved Chelsea's comment today that her mother would be a better president than her dad. Disfunctional family?

Betty, I am sorry but your facts are wrong. I have just returned from working in Pa. and no one there is bitter. I talked to thousands of people who have no jobs, but they are not bitter.

I get no truth from Betty's saying Hussain is " a clean public servant with no baggage..."?/ He has done nothing the short time he has been a state or U. S. senator other than "spew" liberal policy, but do nothing for the nation other than more of the Robin hood-type taking from the haves 7 giving to the have-nots! Sorry, he is far from being "without sin"!
