I thought most of what Clinton says made a lot of sense. I don't see what his critics are talking about. So he fooled around, big deal, he governed the country better than those before or since. To me, the leadership he gives the country while thinking and speaking versus Obama is like night and day
Bill Clinton is awesome

I don't hate Clinton. He's a great speaker and a brilliant mind. I don't idolize the man because I think he's a moral empty suit. As far as his speech, there were really good points as well as a massive amount of spin.. That was necessary in order to make the speech powerful.

I've never hated Clinton myself.
In fact as a child, the Clinton/Gore administration was responsible for getting me "into" politics for the rest of my life.
Clinton has always been a great speaker, and that's why he was president for 8 years.
Well.... that and carpet bombing innocent civilians in Cambodia and Kosovo.
Of course..... there was always the wonderful NAFTA and GATT agreements that created free trade and sent big business to China and Mexico.
I think I'm also forgetting state land grabbing, that included the Grand Staircase Escalante Monument/Forest in the St. George area.

I'm much more impressed with his bombing of Cambodia 30 years before he took office.
As a speaker he is second to none. Clinton is a hard thumping democrat with the body, voice, and mannerisms of a republican. He speaks, and connects to a broad base.
Clinton laid out exactly what is wrong with the right, and the most important factors moving forward. He hit a home run with his talk of coming together, and how the right is demonizing anyone who even dares respecting the president.
It's ridiculous, hurting the nation, and Clinton called them out for it.
The republican ideals of smaller government, and strong military hold merit. However, they are not valid in the hands of what the right has become. Hateful, extreme, and vindictive.
He gave the best speech of both conventions so far.

*facepalm* all you want.
Everyone knows NATO was involved in the bombings of Kosovo, or just let it happen anyway.
The Clinton administration then also just let it happen, (for a period of time of course.)
Good read.

Which included the same covert activities during the LBJ administration that continued under Clinton's watch.
