I think Michelle Obama should respond to Bill Clinton's lies...

[jenmito]

Barack shouldn't be taken off-message. Let Michelle respond and then let's see Bill respond to HER replies. I wonder how well THAT would go over-Bill attacking Michelle!

7. What lies? Bill said the WHOLE THING is a fairy tale. It's up for interpretation

unlike Bill's lies such as saying Obama said the Repubs. have been the party of good ideas, that Obama wasn't really against the war besides his one speech in 2002, etc.

[maddiejoan]

10. Man

You sure did drink a mighty draft of that Kool-Aid.

[jenmito]

12. Nope. Just tellin' it like it is.

[maddiejoan]

14. okay.

Lift me up!

[journalist3072]

16. Isn't that pathetic? You'd think they'd be full after so much cool aid.

[LibraLiz1973]

31. Up for interpretation. Hmm. How sad.

Basically, everyone KNOWS that is not how he meant it. He meant Barack's stance on Iraq. But, because it is easier to make it a racial throw down, people are making this really dirty.

I WILL NOT VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA. HE and HIS campaign people and supporters are race baiting.
It makes me sick.

[jenmito]

33. What's sad is that everyone knows Obama HAS been against the war the entire time despite

what Bill said. And what's also sad is that everyone knows the Clinton surrogates have put out the race card by smearing him, saying he went to a Madrassa, implying he was a crack dealer, saying he's running on a campaign of false hope, minimizing MLK's role in the Civil Rights Movement in order to minimize Obama (after saying OBAMA compared himself to MLK and JFK, which he didn't), and on and on. Obama has been AVOIDING race his entire campaign. It's ridiculous to blame HIM for this.

3. I was thinking the same thing

[jenmito]

8. Maybe she WILL...

we can hope, can't we? :)

[terisan]

5. Clinton did not lie. I think he can be both gracious and successful in proving that to MO.

[Evergreen Emerald]

6. Clinton is not lying.

[ellacott]

11. He lied about Obama's statements on Reagan n/t

[Evergreen Emerald]

13. No he did not. He paraphrased. He did not quote exactly but the

essence of what he was saying was accurate. There was no lie.

[jenmito]

15. "Paraphrased"? That's a good one! Try he LIED!

[Evergreen Emerald]

17. ohmygod.

You people are...too much. I cannot stomach much more of this purposeful crap. Are you actually suggesting that Obama was not complementing Reagan?

[jenmito]

18. He was stating a fact-Reagan DID change the trajectory of America...

"Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not, and a way that Bill Clinton did not," he said, describing Reagan as appealing to a sentiment that, "We want clarity, we want optimism, we want a return to that sense of dynamism nad entrepreneurship that had been missing.

Later, he also compared the moment, in passing, to the one that produced President Kennedy."

I'm sure you heard of "Reagan Democrats." That's because he brought the country together in a way Bill Clinton didn't.

[Evergreen Emerald]

19. Reagan was horrific to civil rights and to middle class? REagan was

not someone who brought change or "changed the trajectory." Obama was attempting to attack Clinton by complimenting Reagan as the best President for Change.

Obama is willing to get fleas to win the Presidency by sleeping with the enemy.

[jenmito]

22. He brought a sense of it being "morning in America again" regardless of his policies.

Obama didn't praise any of his policies.

[1corona4u]

36. It's just insane desperation, isn't it?

Unreal, the lengths these Obama supporters will go to.

[robbedvoter]

9. Agree. let HER do it. fair is fair. Whatever it is you consider lies.

[BenDavid]

20. Your assumption is all wrong, WJC would not attack Michelle

nor is WJC attacking obama. Obama feels the words of truth and he thinks he's getting attacked.
In all of this new back and forth as Obama says he will take Bill head on...excuse me but Obama you failed the first test of school yard....You got JUKED!

[jenmito]

23. Michelle should address Bill's lies about Barack.

Then Bill would have to respond to what SHE said. But what do YOU know? You still think Michelle told Black people to vote for Barack because he's Black when she said no such thing. I've given you the interview link several times and you've ignored it every time.

[sallyseven]

21. I think Bill and Michelle should

watch what they say and be careful. Or they should shut the f k up.

[jenmito]

24. Bill is an ex-president. Sad to see him getting in the gutter. n/t

[MethuenProgressive]

25. Who is this "michelle" person?

Never heard of her.

[jenmito]

26. You never heard of Michelle Obama? Yeah, now I know not to believe a word you say.

:eyes:

[NJObamaWoman]

27. Check inside.....

This is MICHELLE OBAMA!!!!

[jenmito]

28. Darn-did you post a pic of her? It doesn't show up.

I wonder if others are able to see it...

[NJObamaWoman]

29. yes I did. Maybe its not showing up for others but I can see it

[jenmito]

30. Maybe it's my computer. I'll reboot and try to see it.

[usregimechange]

32. Good idea.

[jenmito]

34. Thanks.

:hi:

[kelligesq]

35. Scuse me- Spouse Michelle started this in first campaign attacking Hillary - what's good

for the goose is good for the gander...

And I dont like Michelle one bit either,

obviously dont like obama nor trust him, and he's showing that he wont be
prsident for ALL the people..

dont like Hillary either, but if obama keeps it up....I might vote for that woman that I had no intention of voting for.

And I'm not a "progressive".. I'm just a good old fashioned liberal - progressive obama is right of center...I think you kids are gonna be in for a big surprise if he ever gets in - more of boosh learning on the job and screwing the country up worse - selling us out to the highest bidder (read lobbiest)

[jenmito]

37. Got a link showing Michelle attacking Hillary?

[Frostnow]

38. Michelle and Bill - equal footing

No - just the opposite, Michelle should go after her counterpart Mr. Bill. If Bill Clinton wants to put in his two cents he should take on Michelle. Let her chew on him a while and maybe she can get him to shut up. His record in the Oral Office is a good place to start. He disgraced his office and the presidency with his shenanigans. Maybe Gore would have had a chance to beat King George if he wasn't a hangover of the shameless Clinton White House.

America is no dynasty bush-clinton-bush-clinton. How can we stand 4 - 8 years of the Hilly Billy soap opera? She is a divider of the first magnitude. The Reps will go nuts if she gets in, and for what? Her bulldog personality? She can't change anything. Nothing will get done. Her experience?? since when does being first lady equip a woman to be President. Was there Pres. Mamie Eisenhower, Pres Jackie Kennedy, Pres Pat Nixon, how about Pres Betty Ford. No they all had better sense. Hillary is perfectly fit to run for president of Vassar College (thank you Maureen Dowd) Sorry, pillow talk with a sitting president doesn't cut it. Otherwise why not run Monica? Stupid. Hillarious has the exact experience level of Obama - a first year senator with dividends. Decorating the White House for Christmas and smiling at foreign dignitaries, eating their food - that's not experience. This whole Clinton candidacy is just a ruse to get Bill back in power.

I wish Barrack would have Oprah get her friends Wanda and Whoopi to gin up some really hilarious Bill comedy and lay it on him but good. Michelle, go girl!
