Bill Clinton Scolds Media … Again

Bill Clinton at an event at an eating place called “Huger’s?” Imagine the irony. Next it’ll be Mrs. Clinton giving a televised appearance on “To Tell The Truth.”

If Bill Clinton “scolded” the media … then they definitely deserved scolding. I have never seen the media be so biased and use so many “opinions” as news as I have in this election. ABC is the worst .. and CNN is right behind them. Thank God for real news services like NBC and CBS.

While Mr. Clinton is certainly not one without fault, I do agree with him regarding media coverage of the campaign and its obvious tilt, at least to date, in favor of Senator Obama. ABC’s recent story commencing with the “word,” “Duh,” is evident of bias, this time downplaying as “old news,” the countless lies and distortions inflicted upon the American people by the Bush Administration in “selling” the Iraq invasion. Often times, in fact too often, we have to sift through one celebrity story after another to find news that is worthy of reading, whether biased or not. In my judgment, the media has long championed the candidacies of Senators McCain and Obama as its “darlings,” almost without scrutiny, while concentrating on whatever “news” may dampen the aspirations of the other candidates, Senator Clinton in particular.

Bill is absolutely wrong. People do care about how he is behaving. His rabid pursuit to get back into the White House is so blatant it seems he will say almost anything.

The press try to spin this up so they can portrait Obama as the victim. They are trying to demonize Bill Clinton; but they will fail!

The Clinton’s have lost all respect they once had in our house. This is no way for a former president to act. He’ll do anything to get a 3rd term. And Hillary? Sending her husband to yell at the neighbors serves her feminity not well, and makes him look like a total buffoon. Shame on the Clinton’s. DEM verson of Ronald Reagan’s 11th Commandement “Thou shalt not speak ill of another Democrat”.
Enough Clintons already!!!!!!

Has anybody worked for a service industry? Like when you are at the bottom? You don’t want to go against the people you are working with. It causes tension. These women took a stand against their “Union chosen candidate.” That has cost pressure enough….Now you want them to file a complaint? Why? So that the media could be all over them, which will intice more public pressure for their decision? I think this is one we just need to let go.

I meant to say CAUSED, not cost.

Clinton is beginning to look and sound like Nixon in his battles with the media.
He’s a great campaigner because there is one thing he hates in life more than anything: losing. Unfortunately for him, he’s so emotionally involved in recapturing the WH for his wife that he can’t control himself. It’s not hurting Hillary now very much because he’s campaigning exclusively among Democrats, but in the general election, it will defeat her.

bill is right..
it the damm press..
looking for a story-
that causes most of this racial-gender
crap..because they make a living doing
this…people..and if obama can’t fight
bill or hillery…how in world do you expect him to stand up
to world leaders who hate us?
there is no free pass in politics
because he is black or she is a woman
either fight back or step aside and let a stronger person show us the way..

I agree with Bill Clinton on his charges against Obama. The national media is hiding many facts about Obama that is main headlines in Chicago. First, Obama is linked to some high profile issues, but those of you out of this area have not heard about it yet, because the national media protects him. Secondly, Obama said he worked for 15 years as a civil lawyer, but actually, he worked only a few. In addition, part of that was for his wife, his boss. He does not seem to have a steady work history. He was president of the Harvard student board, but he was almost 30 years old. Many of the law students start at 21 or 22, so that is not a big deal. Then, he brags about his community work, a voter’s registration drive. Oh, come on, I run that on a volunteer basis. Was he paid for this and by whom? It was linked to the REZSKO slumlord. He is the one who launched Obama’s political career, and now the roosters come back to crow. Therefore, the national media needs to come clean on Obama. Bill and Hillary are quite accurate in their charges; they are not making things up!

Mr Obama has a bad memory about his stance on the single payer plan he advocated before a union group. He said in the debate he never supported that. Bad memory or lying? And let’s hear what he has to say about the wife, of the lawyer under indictment, who purchased property next to his mansion in Illinois and then sold part of it to him. Hmm? I wonder what Mr. “clean” will say now?

I find it difficult to believe the Clinton’s on much at all. After all, here’s a president that thinks it’s OK to answer a question, “Boxers or Briefs?”, but legitimate questions are out of bounds. And who can blame him, with quotes like ” I did not have sexual relations with that woman…” and “it depends on what the definition of is is…[paraphrased]“, etc.

CHJ, Thank you! Nice to see you on here! You sound pretty smart!

Bill Clinton rabid? Whitewater? What became of that ridiculous fiasco? People still try to make much more of what is actually there. It is their entrenched bias in full gear, fueled by selective reporting. I am more disgusted with how cheaply the media is spinning these events and how it is such an insult to the intelligence of the general public that they continue. Too much of the media thinks the only way we can digest our political debate is to present it in a Jerry Springer format. Judging by many of these responses, they may be right. Our political candidates should be held accountable for their ideas and policies of running this country. Not these stupid, low rent, soap opera reports.

I”m also tired of the ‘Shillary’s’ – fellow Democrats who shill for Hillary even when her husband is sent to scold the neighbors and tells whoppers to win a 3rd term.

Ya, when the Clinton’s use Karl Rove tactics they need to go away like Bush.

The press is out after the Clinton’s. The press are only doing what they are told by there publishers and owners. The press have been on the Clinton’s for years. Everytime Chelsea turned around the press was there. they hounded that girl to the extreme. Bill had an “affair”. the only people that Bill had to answer to were his wife and his God. It is and was no one else’s business. How many men reading this have had sex with more than their spouses? I don’t care if you have but George Bush may or may not have had affair’s with someone other than his wife, I don’t care either, What I do care about is that George Bush lied about WMD’s and almost 4,000 men & women have died, thousands have been maimed or will suffer mental problems the rest of their lives.
We live in Illinois, re-read come of the above comments about OBAMA and the Chicago slum-lord. Obama was out signing people up to vote, many volunteers do that, he is a sham…we hope many people vote against him in the election…he’s seems to be all talk, he talks about Washington but he is one of the people who hasn’t done anything but write the Dream Act, which will give children of illegls tuition to attend college (these people really should be called “adults”, when you are old enough to go to college). Like Oboma, we will be “Present” when it comes time to vote but we will not be voting for him.
We are not happy with Bill Clinton because of the NAFTA bill being signed while he was President. This was the start of company’s moving out of the U.S. to China,India, etc…Americans need to STOP buying junk from China. You need to buy American cars.

PS
I’m a life long Democrat who will be voting for John McCain in the general election if Hillary is the nominee.
Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton does not appeal to me.
Bill wants a 3rd term and will do or say anthing to get it.

If any of you saw the tape of Bill Clinton’s comments with the media, there is no basis for saying he appeared angry. He answered the reporter in his legendary soft voice. And he was right. Folks, let’s get real. What the Obama campaign claims are dirty tricks is that Clinton on the record commented on Obama’s statements to a Nevada editorial board essentially telling them that he modeled himself after Reagan and that Republicans were “the party” of ideas during the past 10 to 15 years.
And an Obama staffer compares this to the dirty tricks of Lee Atwater? Are you kidding?

The reporter asked the question whether Bill Clinton was saying that it was Obama who came up with the race issue? And Bill gets all steamed. Well, if everyone back tracks to when this all started, it was Bill who came up with the race and gender issue. Benjamin Franklin said:”The first mistake in public business is the going into it.” Maybe if Bill never started this business in public, the question would never had been asked.

I had great admiration for Hillary. But, watching all the childish dirty tricks of her husband is now a total turn off for me. I think Obama has character than Hillary does. But the sad story is that I do not see the democrats winning the white house with the way they are behaving. It is rather sad to see people seeking the presidency bickering and ranting at each other like juveniles. Who care for all that nonsense?

Lest anyone forget, it’s as simple as this:
Bill Clinton is a liar.
Bill Clinton is a liar.
Anybody miss that? Oh, I suppose it depends on what the definition of “is” is, but I think most reasonable people would agree that the “victim card” is not a card this aging lothario should be playing.
Character matters. I am a hard core Liberal Democrat, have been to jail protesting for racial justice, opposed every unjust military action since 1980 (including not a few little military adventures by Bill himself, lest you forget “collateral damage” in Libya and to a certain Chinese embassy in the Balkans).
I have this to say: if Obama or Edwards are not the winners in the Democratic Primaries, then come November, in spite of his taking the wrong positions on 90% of all issues, I will vote for John McCain. He’s wrong, but he’s not lying.
Don’t trust anyone from the political machine headed by the man with the cigar.

I have never seen the media so bias. Report the news, don’t make it!

Hey people; Remember Bush’s last tax cut? Do the above $200,000 a year people get a tax cut too this time? He is trying to push that through and they are trying to label some Democrats who are standing against it, as “Do Nothings”. We can’t let this administration get away with that! Remember ENRON? Haliburton? Katrina? Iraq? We’re being distracted while getting screwed. Somethings up.

TruthHurts, no idea what I said that you could possibly disagree with but yes, Bill is obviously willing to say anything to get the two of them in the White House. He even said he was always against invading Iraq which is completely not true. He and she both were all for it until it became a political liability. But now, he is just Hill’s attack dog while she smirks above the fray. He just didn’t like the media bringing it up for discussion.

You people have nothing better to do with your time I see. Was it not both Hillary and Obama who asked their true supporters to not play these games. I don’t understand how this ” change” is going to take place if the supporters of the campaign that is talking hope does nothing but bash the experienced canidate. If this is the change and hope you have for our country, we are in for more trouble than Bush ever created. How about some hopeful blogs and change your attacks on Clinton to support for your canidate. Clinton supporters atleast talk about issues and experience. If Obama has a great record.Lets talk about it. However, calling a woman a name and distorting her service to our country is not change. Obama and Hillary are not enemies, so why the hatred. Once again, to Obama supporters, is this the hope and change that you want? If your change, is being hateful the best way to achieve that goal is to lieten to issues. Talk about your canidate, don’t spread lies about the other. That same thought goes to real Hillary supporters.
SPIN SPIN SPIN

Hilliary couldn’t control Bill’s personal life. How can we expect her to control him from interfering in the campaign for the White House?

Terry, Terry, Terry, you are fantastic!

whitewater again?! They investigated that, spent MILLIONS and only found a BJ… get over it!

I agree. Let the politicians win the election not the reporters. All the crap about Obama is NOT being started by the other candidate… it’s being passed around by “we the people”. I don’t like Hillary or Obama but, it would be nice to think there was fair reporting on useful information instead of some immature reporter fueling a fight.

The truth is it’s coming back on them for only there favoritism on one race from the time Bill Clinton was in office now the change has happen there is a African American running it’s now harder for them to win race back as they played they before and that’s how they won last time vote for me and I take care of all you.

The truth is, Obama does not have all blacks support. He can not and will not defeat any republican when the dust settles. We need a candidate that can win, and the Clinton ticket is most powerful and achieveable.

Go Glory!

I LOVE HILLARY!

It really is a shame that race was brought into this race. When race is an issue it raises paranoia and paranoia raises fear of being dominated, which is pure horsepocky.

ABC News your bias reporting of the election against Senator Hillary Clinton is so obvious. Your starting to sound like FOX who always defended Bush the same way you are always defending Senator Obama. Please just reports the candidates perspective on key issues and the American public WILL elect the next democratic candidate. Shame on ABC News.

Geez, I am so tired of the Bush Family -I so am tired of the Clinton family, are we living in a monarchy? NO difference here people! they are both dogs with fleas.
Why are we so afraid of something different -the same ingredients will give you the same damn soup- mix them together and nothing will change -NOTHING.
If everyone is is so supposedly sicken and disgraced by our goverment, why would you want to put in a family that has brought you to this point? have we forgotten how we got to this point -papa bush >BClinton >BClinton >idiot Bush to >idiot Bush > and now we look to another Clinton -wow! i guess anything can happen -we voted idiot bush for a second term, doesn’t say a lot about us. We should learn and not be so afarid to give someone else a chance -the commitment itself might send a HUGE message that might start some wave of change. if OBAMA can beat the ClintonS and their SPIN machine and tricks the Republicans will be a pc of cake

Most Clinton supporters are saying that Barack is playing dirty politics and that he needs to stress his issues. If Bill would cool his jets and let his wife(Who last I checked was the one running for President) address him personally then they would get their wish. I don’t hear or see Michelle or Elizabeth going after HRC in the tone that Bill is going after Barack. If people would pay attention to the debate when Barack was asked about Bill Clinton he talked highly of the Clinton years and the only thing I heard Barack say was that he did not know about his dancing skills. The Clintons have stretched the truth and it is SHAMEFUL. ( Being nice about it) HRC abandoned the people of SC because she realized that she couldn’t win. She left SC the morning after the debate. Bill is not the person that is running for President. I don’t believe the Americans in SC want to hear from him about HRC positions.
So go ahead and leave your little attack dawg Billy and keep believing that the American people (White,Black,Latino and all of the rest of the American people of diverse backgrounds) are STUPID!
Keep fighting for that third term Bill!!
yeah right.

the Clinton are winning at their own game -they are making OBAMA take his eye off the ball -they love what the media is doing w/bill, he is using himself as bait -a small sacrifice -wow these clinton people are shameless and cruel- power hungry and evil.
OBAMA -08, have to give it a chance

It is no secret that the Clintons are running a nasty campaign against Obama…I heard Bill Clinton say that the media was on Obama side and not being fair to him and Hilary “Shame of you” (to the media he said). For one thing. he is not running for President Hilary is…why is he so involved with this…he is going way to far. Hilary does not have it…and Bill knows that maybe that is way he is always out front. Hilary left Bill in SC to do the work for her. “Attack Obama” and what message is she sending to the blacks of SC…she does not care about them nor there vote…she is just up and left SC. . That women is the devil…I don’t trust Hilary. If she gets that white house…God help us all. I will not vote for her even if she did beat Obama..no way! I am going to the other side…anyone is better than her or Bill.

the clintons have made a mockery of our goverment just as bush has made us the laughing stock -i will vote for anyone they put up against Hillary -ANYONE!!!

“”The truth is, Obama does not have all blacks support. He can not and will not defeat any republican when the dust settles. We need a candidate that can win, and the Clinton ticket is most powerful and achieveable.”"
Everyone knows Obama doesn’t have 100% support of the Black community. And even if he did, he still wouldn’t win. And so what if Blacks voted for him, big deal. Whites and women are voting for Hillary, no one complains or writes a story about that. I’m tired of hearing about race already. Stupid press.
Anyway, the point I wanted to make is don’t kid yourself. Repubs LOATHE Hillary. Indeps. don’t like her either. Dems. are split and many of us are NOT voting for her. In fact, many of us are voting with them against her – blame it on principles – and our need to have someone honest and decent in the WH….
So, do tell, where is the Clinton victory coming from? Even if all Dems. voted for her, there still wouldn’t be enough votes for her to win, even with Hispanics. Have you considered the MASSIVE number of Repubs. and Indeps. that will be voting against Hillary?
People HATE Hillary with a PASSION, they don’t hate Obama. Only ignorant and small minded people dislike him. So, she stands no better chance at winning than he does. Period.

ALL I KNOW IS HILLARY CLINTON IS SMARTER THAN OBAMA AND GEORGE BUSH COMBINED! WHAT DO YOU GET? A SMART PERSON IN THE WHITE HOUSE! IF THERE WAS SCANDALS THEY NEVER HURT YOU! SO SHUT THE HELL UP! IF YOU WANT A REPUBLICAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE CONTINUE TO BAD HILLARY AND WE WILL GET BUSH ALL OVER AGAIN! HILLARY MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE SUPPORTING YOU HERE IN CALIFORNIA! HILLARY 08!

alhad, I’m sorry, you don’t want a president, you want a mommy.

I am amazed at the hillary coolaid drinkers responding on this thread. Liberalism is definately a mental disorder.
And stop the the Bush Lied crap. He, like the congressmen and women and the rest of the world leaders who saw the information believed it. If it was faulty, it’s not his fault. Actually it’s lifelong leftist employess in DC that are manipilating and destroying this country. Can you say traitors, that’s the Clintons and their ilk.

I’m an Obama supporter. And at first I thought this anger was a problem for Bill, but if you overlook the anger and read the words — he’s correct. By design or by accident, Barack has a lazy media in his pocket and now they are causing him problems by focusing on race. They — much more than the Clintons — have been driving the race debate. Barack, please, drop this issue and get back on track.

America is getting sick and tired of the Clintons Hate Politics towards Obama.They have brought out a whole new meaning to Politics, Hate, Race and gender, is their new Tactics!

Anyone remember the pardon of Marc Rich that the justice department and the state department were against but Bill was for because of Denise Rich’s huge donations to Bill? How about letting Loral sell missile guidance technology to China that the state dept was against but Bill was for because the owner of Loral made huge donations to Bill? How about doing nothing about OBL? How about pleasuring himself in the alcove off the oval office or discussing troop movements while Monica was busy on him? I distinctly remember Bill getting lots of cover from the media during all this and in fact, the media was ready and willing to promote Hillary’s takeover of 1/7th of our economy with a plan that was devised in secret. I could go on an on…so Bill complaining about the media is pure hypocrisy but that’s no big deal for him – or her. They want this to be about race because there are more whites and women than there are blacks. It’s all part of the game to them. And interesting to hear Bill mention “shame”. I didn’t think he even knew the word.

“I am amazed at the hillary coolaid drinkers responding on this thread. Liberalism is definately a mental disorder.

Lifelong leftist employees like… Richard A. Clarke, George Tenet, and Colin Powell’s chief advisor perhaps? So the former head of the CIA and the Secretary of State’s No. 1 guy say that the White House manipulated intelligence to show a false positive regarding WMDs and yet you still believe the White House didn’t lie? Go talk to the intelligence analysts that resigned in protest when they got thrown under the bus by this administration; they’ll tell you exactly what they told me: they told the Administration there were no WMDs, but Bush went ahead with the war anyway. Pull your head out of the sand and do your own research before you start calling other, better informed people liars.

Believe as you wish, but an increasing number of Americans are getting their fill of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s antics. They had their day in the sun. Bill acts like Sponge Bob Square Pants on steroids!
They have managed to give the republicans all kinds of video in the last month that will have severe ramifications in November. Problem is: NO ONE CAN CONTROL BILL CLINTON. He is the epitome of a LOOSE CANNON! He is not a PLUS for folks looking for real solutions to public education; a solid energy plan; making corporate America more competitive with China and India;
and revitalizing the US military to protect this country in decades to come.

The Clintons are the worst type or liars
They do not care if someone is hurt or
lied about, them and only them count in
this election.
They are the product of a MSM that has
no integrity, no courage and choose to
get on the television and lie, day
after day.
The American people fall for this every
time they pull a phony stunt, they
look for looks, charm, the subject
of character and integrity never appears
in their search for a president.
No class from the Clintons, they have
none and I guess the voters are too
lazy to fing the truth as Obamo has
pointed out to the voters and they
will continue to buy the lies, spin
tears, and his anger seems to think they
are strong, they are not, they just
manipulate the voters one more time with
their games. Throughly rotten to the
core. ‘

I have always been fairly neutral on the Clintons but recently read “For Love of Politics” and see a career-long pattern in these two. If you are curious, read the book. It is a fair portrayal of their time in the White House. The thing that most astounded me is HOW Hillary got to where she is. The fact that she is a New York senator truly defies reason.

Bill, Bill, Bill!
We know you are a liar. We also know you are hollow at the core. And now we know that you have no dignity. Will your poisonous self-regard never stop?
How many times are you going to discredit the role of president and former-president? Have you no shame at all?
Keep it up, Bill. You’re grooming the Dems for another loss in November.

I’m glad Obama and Clinton are publically showing their hate for each other. It shows just how desperate they are for power, and it will help elect another Republican. But I must say there really isn’t any real conservatives left in the running for president.

I think if Hillary was in the position Barack is in, this race would have been over a long tine ago.I hear Bill say that to much pressure have been put on the superdelegates to make a choice on Obama. But have you heard come from Obama.You have heard this from the Clinton party. An if you’ve notice she never follow the rules.Two states was not to be added. But she went in the ninth hour in Fla and Mich to claim victory, when they was disqualified,but she wants to make her own rules,and wants them to just give her the votes.And the this race
