This really boils my blood.
Bill Clinton actually has the audacity to claim he's completely blameless for the current economic meltdown, when interviewed by
Time magazine.
Granted, I'm not one of those right-wingers claiming that it's ALL Bill Clinton's fault. But his repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act and his other botched housing policies certainly contributed to the current problems.
TIME also distributed the blame among many other people, not just Clinton, in its
"25 To Blame" list. Among them: Sandy Weill, Phil Gramm, George W. Bush, Chris Cox, Hank Paulson, Ian McCarthy, John Devaney, and Jimmy Cayne.
But no, "The Big Dog" has to be defiant to the end and absolve his sacred-cow administration from any wrongdoing whatsoever.
Arrogant fucker.
He'll always be a good ole boy straight to the end -- I can't get the image out of my head (which was reported by a biographer, firsthand), of, when he was leaving the White House in '01 upon George W. Bush's first inauguration, one of Bill Clinton's fellow good ole boy bastards doing the back-slapping and shoulder-squeezing of the then-departing president with tears in his eyes as he repeated, "We did good! We did good!"
Um, no, you didn't.
I don't care about the stupid blow job Monica gave you, "Big Dog." I care about all of your naive, disingenuous rope-a-dope policies that your drone-minded groupies still seem bound and determined to overlook.
Ironic that many Americans would have been potentially banking on your wife (as president), of all people, to get us out of this mess.
Ironic and naive.
Again, due to your unwillingness to shoulder ANY of the blame, I say: FUCK YOU! There's plenty of blame to go around, and you're not the only one who deserves it. But in your book, I guess it's "them" who'll always be guilty, and you'll always be their victimized pariah, huh?
You'll keep collecting your five-digit and six-digit checks for your fucking speeches and fucking fundraisers while the rest of us suffer and possibly fall into bankruptcy. But hey, it's not your problem, so what do you care?
