81. C'mon, he just misspoke.

Every once in a while, he screws up and tells the truth. So many lies to keep track of, anybody might do the same.

He misspoke here too. I just saw this, and it blows my mind. This proves that Hillary as President is just a front for Bill's third term. What a feminist milestone she's setting, right? She is such a fraud, and so is he. This is from May 2011...

Selling us out to the billionaires like they always do. ISN'T IT FUNNY HOW DEMS GET ALONG WITH REPUBS WHEN THEY WANT TO?

Now what was today's meme again, about a "legacy of Republican obstruction"???

Sure. And if you believe that one, they've got a million more lies to tell you.

Meanwhile, all these paid off liars are cozily joining together in getting rid of what's left of our safety net behind our backs. They make sure to do it in events like that whcih none of our class could afford to go to, that's where they're all safe and friendly with each other.

What we see is nothing but kabuki theater.

Bernie is telling us the truth about politics today, and standing up to it to change it. Of course they hate his guts. He's trying to end their gravy train, which comes out of the increased pay and quality of life stolen from the rest of us.

CNN: Bill Clinton: Hillary can 'put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us' [View all] NWCorona Mar 2016 OP

Bill was referring to unprecedented GOP obstruction, not Obama. nt Cali_Democrat Mar 2016 #1

I supplied a qoute from his aid NWCorona Mar 2016 #2

Is this another one of those moments where a Clinton misspeaks? Kittycat Mar 2016 #4

I think it was a combo of both to tell the truth. NWCorona Mar 2016 #6

Even if that's what he meant, how in the world is she going to put the GOP obstruction behind us? Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #5

Exactly and I'll never forget that. NWCorona Mar 2016 #7

Good question: especially since her campaign seems to have conceded a continuing GOP majority Ken Burch Mar 2016 #18

That's easy, she will work with the GOP congress GummyBearz Mar 2016 #72

She will be getting things done!!! Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #75

You beat me to it. floriduck Mar 2016 #79

Maybe so.... Docreed2003 Mar 2016 #20

Exactly right. bjo59 Mar 2016 #29

sure sounds as if he is referring to Obama's policies amborin Mar 2016 #3

Thinking the same! NWCorona Mar 2016 #8

He went full DINO there! Betty Karlson Mar 2016 #52

he has never been one to mince words nor misspeak to that magnitude AtomicKitten Mar 2016 #95

It probably was a mistake, but for a professional speaker? I don't know Ned_Devine Mar 2016 #9

Bill might have lost a few steps but he's still very sharp NWCorona Mar 2016 #10

Yeah, he knows what he's doing Ned_Devine Mar 2016 #16

Someone a while ago called it NWCorona Mar 2016 #17

I Heard Part of That Speech on the Radio gordyfl Mar 2016 #11

Agreed NWCorona Mar 2016 #15

And they claim BERNIE insults Obama? Ken Burch Mar 2016 #12

Will they obstruct Hillary less? Or will she capitulate more? ViseGrip Mar 2016 #13

Well, I think you know the answer to that... Docreed2003 Mar 2016 #21

I take it he's not an ObamaCare fan jfern Mar 2016 #14

Crooks and Liars has the whole thing in context MattP Mar 2016 #19

I actually read that article too and it doesn't contain NWCorona Mar 2016 #23

I think they'll have to pill it on top of... pantsonfire Mar 2016 #47

If That Was the Case... gordyfl Mar 2016 #66

Legacy always refers to a President's time in office Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #22

Yes! NWCorona Mar 2016 #24

No! "Legacy of Obstruction" is a common reference to the GOP Congress. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #36

Didn't the Democrats have a supermajority that first year of Obama's term? Is he confused? pantsonfire Mar 2016 #48

Calling BS on that Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #54

Good grief. Is there any anti-Clinton GOP talking point you don't like? SunSeeker Mar 2016 #57

It didnt start with the clintons....as far as i know SwampG8r Mar 2016 #60

Check your history Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #63

Ah, so now you admit the Clintons didn't start birtherism. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #67

Direct tie, no. However.... Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #70

The Clintons repeatedly disavowed birtherism. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #73

Just one? Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #78

I just picked the most prominent recent example. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #83

According to you it's a common reference when it isn't. Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #85

The leader of the Senate Democrats, Reid, used it in a statement THIS MONTH. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #86

Clearly, you don't understand what common reference means Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #88

Oh, I understand the phrase quite well. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #89

False like 'common reference"? Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #92

Maybe you should learn to Google a little better. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #97

You should think it through before you post Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #98

Same goal posts: the "awful legacy" Bill Clinton was referring to was the GOP legacy of obstruction. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #99

"Recent articles"... interesting... Lone_Wolf Mar 2016 #100

In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens you can bet it was planned that way. noiretextatique Mar 2016 #25

And it won't be the last time either NWCorona Mar 2016 #26

The only people jumping on this are the GOP and Sanders fans UMTerp01 Mar 2016 #27

I think it's very clear what Bill Clinton meant. NWCorona Mar 2016 #30

"only". That includes over 75% of Americans. (nt) w4rma Mar 2016 #32

With this post ... NanceGreggs Mar 2016 #28

Of course it was Nance. Sanders has said on several occasions he was not happy with the way still_one Mar 2016 #53

I am starting to think that either nadinbrzezinski Mar 2016 #31

Yes indeed! NWCorona Mar 2016 #34

It's not so subtle. Scruffy1 Mar 2016 #33

It's funny to me how the GOP and some other folks decry CNN for being shallow lovemydog Mar 2016 #35

I could see that if Bill mentioned the GOP and not trickle down economics NWCorona Mar 2016 #38

He said the trickle down economics lovemydog Mar 2016 #39

If you can keep an open mind about Bill Clinton... pantsonfire Mar 2016 #49

Thanks. I too have mixed feelings about him as that article lovemydog Mar 2016 #50

The other odd thing is Bill Clinton and George W Bush are best friends now Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #37

They're not 'best friends.' lovemydog Mar 2016 #41

I think you need to actually read up on this before you speak. Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #43

And I think the same of you. lovemydog Mar 2016 #44

Well, a two minute google search will show you are wrong. Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #45

Already did it. Clickbait type stuff. lovemydog Mar 2016 #46

Right Bread and Circus Mar 2016 #74

More like he slipped up than misspoke. It's clearly obvious he's referring to Obama and not ... ThePhilosopher04 Mar 2016 #40

Yeah.. sendero Mar 2016 #56

When did that stop? Kittycat Mar 2016 #76

if anyone knows how to work with and successfully engage Republicans in Congress reddread Mar 2016 #59

Past 8 years can mean only one thing: Obama's term. Dems controlled Congress for at least 2 years berni_mccoy Mar 2016 #61

Bull. Reid himself had this month referred to the GOP "legacy" of obstruction. SunSeeker Mar 2016 #62

Keep trying. Congress doesn't leave legacies. Presidents do. Bill knows this. berni_mccoy Mar 2016 #64

You know you are grasping at straws. nt SunSeeker Mar 2016 #71

Kabuki theater! NWCorona Mar 2016 #82

The meaning behind these words is not mysterious, it simply means Clinton will bend herself into 2banon Mar 2016 #84
