6. I've been listening for a while; it's amazing how brilliant Clinton is.

His command of a vast array of information is really astounding. He sounds like an expert on this subject, and he does that every time he opens his mouth.

This forum is sponsored by the DLC so I'm not happy about that - but still when you compare Bill Clinton talking about an issue and W talking about an issue, it's ... I can't even think of the words to describe the difference.

7. Did you hear Ted Turner say

"If things keep going the way they're going, we can't just be a bunch of monkeys sitting here with nuclear weapons. We have to be human, too. We have to find some humanity"

But I have to listen hard to Clinton talking about why he is optomistic about what's going on with the evangelical community.... hmmmm...

8. Bill Clinton keeps inspiring me...

I wasn't so thrilled with him as a president, but as the years go on I find myself more and more inspired by him. He has a remarkable vision and insight, I'm so impressed with how he can reduce complex issues into do-able steps.
