156. Forgot, these same folks hated Bill Clinton and always will. And he is more revered, more respected

and more beloved than ever.

You would think that if ANYTHING pointed out the utter impotence and lack of importance of the Obama/Dem establishment haters, it would be this. And yet here they are. Louder, shriller, smaller in numbers, and more impotent than ever.
