Bill Clinton:
And it is, to be fair to all the Americans who aren’t as hard-core Democrats as we, it’s a philosophy the American people never actually had a chance to see in action fully until 2001, when the Republicans finally gained control of both the White House and the Congress.

Once upon a time, it was common to regard Bill Clinton as an adult. It’s pretty hard to do so these days, especially, when you read stuff like this:
Is Bill Clinton still fuming over the outcome of the primary contests?

I want to join Sen. Clinton and President Clinton in congratulating Sen. Obama.
Now the three of us move on to February 5th where millions of Americans will cast their vote and help shape the future of this party and help […]

I’m worrying a lot that Obama might win the Democratic nomination. This has nothing to do with my personal feelings about the weakness of Obama’s … platform, I guess, for lack of a better word–the whole feel-good “I will bring this country together again by the magnificence of my rhetoric and the magnetic force […]

For those in the Bay Area, the DCCC is holding a fundraiser at The Warfield this Wednesday, November 1 featuring Bill Clinton. Musical guests include Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, and others. It’s $100, which is cheap as far as events like this go.
If anyone is planning to go, let me know. If […]

Sing it:
Republicans, who control the White House and Congress, [former President Bill] Clinton charged “paint themselves as pure and the rest of us who don’t agree with them as stained” in order to divide the country and stay in power.
