Sorry, I misunderstood what I read.

1. Yeah but ya see, this shit doesn't personally affect Bill cause he like ....

George W have lots of money. It's only us little folk that are going to get screwed.

11. It is obvious you have a reading comprehension problem

[tyne]

2. He clearly

did not say that we need to slow down our economy. I hope my fellow Obama supporters do not push that he did.

IOW, "'good' ideas anyone?

"I've reached out my hand...and it's still reaching"

THEY do that...we don't.

6. Never mind.

I just watched the clip and that's exactly what he said read the whole section of the transcript and his meaning was twisted. My apologies for falling for the old ruse.

8. Read this:---transcript--He is talking of job CREATION through a GREEN economy

"Everybody knows that global warming is real," Mr. Clinton said, giving a shout-out to Al Gore's Nobel Peace Prize, "but we cannot solve it alone."

"And maybe America, and Europe, and Japan, and Canada -- the rich counties -- would say, 'OK, we just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions 'cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren.' We could do that.

"But if we did that, you know as well as I do, China and India and Indonesia and Vietnam and Mexico and Brazil and the Ukraine, and all the other countries will never agree to stay poor to save the planet for our grandchildren. The only way we can do this is if we get back in the world's fight against global warming and prove it is good economics that we will create more jobs to build a sustainable economy that saves the planet for our children and grandchildren. It is the only way it will work.

"And guess what? The only places in the world today in rich countries where you have rising wages and declining inequality are places that have generated more jobs than rich countries because they made a commitment we didn't. They got serious about a clean, efficient, green, independent energy future… If you want that in America, if you want the millions of jobs that will come from it, if you would like to see a new energy trust fund to finance solar energy and wind energy and biomass and responsible bio-fuels and electric hybrid plug-in vehicles that will soon get 100 miles a gallon, if you want every facility in this country to be made maximally energy efficient that will create millions and millions and millions of jobs, vote for her. She'll give it to you. She's got the right energy plan."

12. Yes, he's been talking about that for years.

I remember him saying the same sorts of things for a long time now, that developing green, clean energy technologies would be good for the planet and good for the economy... and I absolutely agree with him on that. So do the _Union of Concerned Scientists_ and the _Apollo Alliance_.

I will give Bill Clinton his due, of course, but I still think Barack's a much better choice than Hillary this time 'round. His ideas and policies are at least as good and often better -- and he provides the inspiring, motivating, unifying leadership that we so desperately need both at home and in the world.

3. I think the old boy's choosing his words very poorly

these days and needs to realize who's running for office and step back and take a rest. He'll be needed at the convention, and if he's choosing his words this poorly then, we're in trouble.

[LiberteToujours]

4. He did not say that

This is a blatant example of media bias and I'm very upset by it. Read the article for yourself here:

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/01/bill-we-just-ha.html

Bill Clinton's exact quote is this:

"And maybe America, and Europe, and Japan, and Canada -- the rich counties -- would say, 'OK, we just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions 'cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren.' We could do that. But if we did that, you know as well as I do, China and India and Indonesia and Vietnam and Mexico and Brazil and the Ukraine, and all the other countries will never agree to stay poor to save the planet for our grandchildren. The only way we can do this is if we get back in the world's fight against global warming and prove it is good economics that we will create more jobs to build a sustainable economy that saves the planet for our children and grandchildren. It is the only way it will work."

If, after reading it, you agree that Bill Clinton has been misquoted, complain about it here as I did:

5. what a maroon

Ah ! well a-day ! what evil looks
Had I from old and young !
Instead of the cross, the Albatross
About my neck was hung.

10. It is obvious that your Reading comprehension is very poor.

[JackORoses]

13. what's this of which you speak, dear rodeoclown?

Bill is Hilly's Albatross.
he will drag her down.
bet on it.

7. You are misrepresenting what you do not understand

ABC's little blogger boy there took Clinton's comments out of context.

The text;

And maybe America, Europe and Japan, Canada, the rich countries in the world, would say...
Okay...we just have to slow down our economy, and cut back our green gass emisions, because we got to save the planet for our grandchildren.

We can do that, but if we did that, you know as well as I do, China and India and Indonesia, and Vietnam and Mexico and Brazil and Ukraine, and all the other countries that is coming behind us, they will never agree to stay poore, to save the planet for our grandchildren.

The only way we can do this, is if we, get back in the worlds fight against global warming, and prove it’s good economics, that we will create more jobs to build a sustainable economy that saves the planet for our children and grandchildren.
