Bill Clinton - How Can America Regain Its Moral Standing?

[majesticmaniac]

You want to improve your image. Be fair in the Isreal / Palestinian conflict..That is the key.

[cl1mbat1ze]

I don't see America's moral standing being regained ever. They've eroded it through decades, by killing millions of people through countless wars. Supported brutal puppet regimes, and generally not giving a shit about "freedom", "human rights" or even human life. All while they're talking about themselves as if they're saints. They have a corrupt election system(Lobbying is ridiculous) and the worlds biggest prison population to mention a few things. Also their news media are completely fucked

Republicans and Democrats wanting to change the world, suppose we just lead by example. Changing them is like trying to change your neighbors lifestyle. I would charge into my neighbors house if he was beating or killing his wife. If he didn't let her shop like my wife shops, or he has a different view of God, if he is not a good to his children as I am to mine. I have to acknowledge the property lines, my rights within mine, his within his.

Who in their fucking right mind would ask this particular man, that particular question ? That's kinda like asking Jack the ripper for dating advice. This is the man who got a blow job in the Oval office and then lied on National TV about it and tried to play semantics with "I don't consider that sex" ! If America had any MORAL Standing left it was shot when they hired this turd for President !

[ngonea]

puck, what a joke

[Croscros72]

This guy is so slimy. How is he taken seriously? He is, after all, a hillbilly piece of shit.

[infinitefathom]

@Croscros72

This "hillbilly piece of shit" is widely considered the most intelligent U.S. president since Jefferson.

[Croscros72]

There are plenty of hillbilly pieces of shit who are quite intelligent. Just look at James Carville.

[TriaMaxwell]

@Croscros72 Hm, Clinton got elected on his own merits.... As opposed to Bush who stole two elections, knew bout 9/11, lied to get us into Iraq and everything else.... I'd rather a president get a blowjob than do all that shit.

[bigmacattack05]

clintons OK, but Ron Paul is awesome

[Illmatic662]

@bigmacattack05 Think you need to reverse this.

[uzijohn]

Almost forgot!

Does anyone remember (assuming you ever knew) about the unprecedented amount of pardons given out (some suspect sold) by Bill Clinton?

Many were DRUG DEALERS and DRUG IMPORTERS also those who DEFRAUDED our GOVERNMENT,

Search the internet and get the complete list I did!

The fugitive Billionaire "Marc Rich" pardon is the most suspicious, he had previously failed in a multi-Million dollar restitution deal with the US government, but look what he got for "FREE" sure???

[uzijohn]

How soon they forget!

Bill Clinton engaged in more than sex with an intern, fellow Democrat Senators protected him from impeachment, It was about PERJURY & OBSTRUCTION of JUSTICE this all came out due to his SEXUAL HARASSMENT of Paula Jones,

Several women claimed to have been RAPED by him and one was quite credible,

What about the DRUG DEALERS contributing money to him?

What about "CHINA GATE" did you forget?

What about the "CLINTON DEAD" Ron Brown,

Vince Foster...too many to list!

[Urbanz1975]

If you are so blind to how BAD Bush has been for this past 7 years, then you need to stay quiet under your rock. The bj was his business.

WHAT ABOUT GUILLIANI, LOTT, AND GINGRICH ALL CHEATING ON THEIR WIVES WHILE ATTACKING CLINTON??? WHATS YUR ANSWER TO THAT?

[Sconz30]

Big fucking deal, the guy got one blowjob.. I can forgive him for that and will listen to what he has to say on America's morals. He's talking about bigger issues that go far and beyond a little fucky sucky with the intern.

[NHMntnHIGH]

one BJ come on the man has been playing the field since he met Hillary. He has the morals of a horny goat in heat

[lorettarosa]

Bill and Hillary, Deserves each-other Both Bad For America Both Full Of Shit What Dream? A Wet Dream? PIG

[ruppertknickerbocker]

Check out Clinton Katrina Fund Bill collected $130 million dollars yet no houses in 9th ward. The Little Rock Rotary got millions. And check out his KIVA loans for poor people around the World. If the people can't pay it back their possessions are taken. And his Green program includes Wal-Mart ask people in China if WM's plants in China pollute or go to your kids toy box.

[mightybeeforsalmon]

i ll never forget when he came to Ireland ....

that was some day that was!!!!

i was in a detention thing in school for bein late..the teacher just said to me get yourself down there and see the president and i did.and then he turned on the christmas lights...fuckin brilliant

[sharkey360]

Which is more immoral?

1. Cheating on your spouse?

2. Misleading the country into a war or invasion using faulty intelligence and no real evidence?

3. Paying pre-selected/favored corporations with taxpayers' money through questionnable contracts?

[LetFreedomRlng]

Clinton is a better speaker but, President Bush is superior to Clinton Morally.

[thomasw78]

I don't agree with his free trade policies and I think the global economic, social policies he's talking about are just a path to one-world government but he's still better than Bush.

[ch3dder]

Bill Clinton talking about moral Standing? does anyone else find this amusingly ironic?

[Olivea134]

No not at all, he is a good man. and with whats in the white house now i would even go as far as to say President Clinton is an angel compared to that hitler wanna be.

[edbrown100]

American can't regain its moral standing when her foreign policy is dictated by the foreign country of Israel and/or by American Zionist traitors who have Israel's best interest at heart. No American, Jewish, Christian, black or white wants this. Until we get Zionists of every stripe out of our government (and most are not in elected positions) we cannot regain a moral standing.

[Rickdeckard2020]

Franklin's words were very wise, as were FDR's 'we have nothing to fear but fear itself'. The US was a colony facing and Empire, but now the US IS the Empire.

The war on terror is a fabrication to replace the profitable fear of the cold war.

Also remember the warnings of Eisenhower

The 2 fundamental problems with the US is Media propaganda and highjacked democracy...

[Rickdeckard2020]

if the people can get the information and can elect someone of their choice(as opposed to the rigged choice provided by those that finance and lobby politicans) the other problems will be addressed

[lindwall88]

no i guess old benny franklin didn't live in our kind of times when he helped manage to fight of British settlement; establish the first republic in over two thousand years and unite a county. mmmm yeah invading a country that doesn't have an army is a lot harder. Oh and we need to give up those liberties cause all the terrorists are living in America aren't they

[Rickdeckard2020]

Some US corps are plundering poor countries ressources, raping the environment, the CIA is assasinating elected heads of states and supporting dictators and terrorists that kill civilians by the hundreds, its main export and 'foreign aid' is providing weapons to arm each sides of conflicts to subsidize the arms industry, its bombers kill people by the thousands. Wire tap, torture, secret prisons

Then we hear 'they hate us for our freedom', 'America gets a bum rap'

[SparklestheClown]

Sometimes America gets a bum rap. After all, whenever, people are in trouble, need aid, money, soldiers, they call on us. Yet we become the enemy. I wish Colin Powell had run for President. People had a real sense of trust in him.

Sparkles

[audiamo]

Clinton represents intelligent compassion--Bush represents heartless uneducated greed around the world

[DblOSmith]

Amen.

[19770326]

How do right wingers account for why Clinton is still so popular around the world?

[dquartner]

It was Clinton who pushed through the TRIPs agreement in conjunction with founding the WTO. He and his predecessor let big pharmaceutical companies walk all over them to create our IPR policies. Moreover, Clinton pushed through more free trade agreements than any other president before him. Now, I am a huge supporter for free trade, but this guy can't sit on stage saying that he gives a shit about other countries economic opinion (for F.P. just think NATO expansion and Russia).

[Torgue15]

I have gained more respect for Clinton in seven minutes than I have for Bush in six years.

[rudedogcarney]

Clinton is a speaker. He had one of the highes approval ratings for a president with a republican congress and still the USA prospered for techie stuff that we have now by Gore being a computer buff. Sure he got a BJ in the whitehouse but he is talking about global moral and true most of the world back him even to today.

[Libslayer]

What would that serial rapist klown know about "Moral Standing"?

[Porsche51688]

I see things like this, and I step back and wonder. Even with all his faults, there is no denying how brilliant Bill Clinton is. The rest of the planet seems to acknowledge this, but there is something wrong with our own people if we don't give this man his due credit. He garnered alot of international support during his tenure.

And this is coming from an Obama supporter.

[19770326]

couldnt agree more

[ThePontifex]

This man did barely anything. Everyone thinks he's so great because the economy was already booming due to the Gulf War and the stock market; so they accredit that to him. Well now the economy is exactly the same as it was (or better) and no one dares acknowledge this presidency. Hypocrisy.

[careypeak23]

For a Rhode scholar, he was pretty stupid to believe he could dupe the average american. Dont forget the internet boom, which had nothing to do with him. He did let bin laden get away! You go bill, go home!!!!

[ThePontifex]

By the way, Obama is a severe joke considering that Hilary is polling better than him! Ouch!

[DblOSmith]

But Porsche... He got a extra marital blow job!!! He obviously can't be brilliant!!!! (sarc)

[Imagereflector]

The people who voted for Bush should be ashamed of themselves!

[adambrantleystone]

I agree!

[ThePontifex]

Those who intended to vote for Gore or Kerry should be deeply ashamed as well.

[IraqDidNothing2USA]

That makes no sense. Bush is a threat to our freedoms - Gore and Kerry are not.

[ThePontifex]

Because his administration eaves drops on a few of our phone calls in an attempt to not have another 9/11? Yeah, I'd say he's a REAL threat.

[interpellare]

"Those who would sacrifice freedom for temporary security deserve neither."

- Benjamin Franklin

[ThePontifex]

Don't confuse freedom with privacy. It may seem unconstitutional to wire tap but it doesn't greatly affect your freedom if some guy is listening to your conversation with your mum. Don't they listen in to your 1-800 calls for "quality assurance"? Let's just say that's almost the same thing and the 'quality assurance' is having no bombs.

[interpellare]

Don't confuse freedom with privacy? You discuss them like two separate entities. Privacy is defined as "freedom from observation".

[ThePontifex]

Though I'm glad that you respond with quotations, my point is that we shouldn't be too upset to sacrifice some of our privacy to secure our security. Some could interpret that as our patriotic duty in preventing mass genocides due to terrorist activity. Believe me, I'm torn from being a Libertarian, but Benjamin Franklin didn't live in a time where our public resources were used as weapons against us.

[agitcam]

More slick willie. Who elected the U.S. to lead the world around. He's an Imperialist. The illusion that "we're pulling you ya" just doesn't work when we'

re the country invading and droping bombs.
