Clinton: I'd Run War Better Than Bush Disgraced ex-president Bill Clinton, who as a college student lied his way out of the Vietnam draft and then eviscerated the military as president, is reportedly telling friends that he'd be a better wartime leader than President Bush.
Paul McCartney's fiancee Heather Mills, who met with Clinton during McCartney's Oct. 20 disaster relief concert in New York, told Britain's Ananova News Service that she asked the ex-president, "Do you wish you were president now?"
His response? "I feel I would be better trained for it, more prepared," Mills claimed.
Asked to clarify the ex-president's remarks, Clinton spokeswoman Julia Payne did not return the New York Post's calls, which carried Mills' quote in Friday editions.
Though McCartney's fiancee opposes the ongoing U.S. bombing and sympathizes with Clinton's "frustration" at being out of office, she backs the current Commander in Chief.
"I did not like Bush before this happened, but now I find him very human," she told Ananova. newsmax.com tom watson tosiwmee |
