Reply #13: I am sorry this is crap and Clinton has not been "pouting" this is a [View All]

[saracat]

thinly disguised ". hit piece" meant to demean President Clinton. Clinton was in fact called 'racist" by Campaign surrogates and no apology has been offered. He has actually been fairly gracious all things considered.

I can't imagine why some folks thing he should just take abuse for the "sake of the Party". The Party owes him far more than he will ever owe the Party.And yet many so called progressives do nothing but demean him 24/7.

There was a lot about the Clinton presidency that I did not like but taken as a whole it was one of the best of the 20th century. Bill Clinton has "paid" his dues and he is "entitled" to respect. He has "earned it".

That does not mean that he isn't subject to criticism. I believe everyone should be able to be criticized, even the nominee. That is what free speech is all about. But nonstop bashing for bashings sake and then disguised "bashing" as "clever" is not helpful. If anyone needs to STFU for the sake of the Party is is the nonstop Clinton Bashers who denigrate a 2 term Democratic President.
