Clinton launches withering attack on Bush on Iraq, Katrina, budget Mon Sep 19, 2:32 AM ET

I saw parts of this interview. He did it twice...on the Stephanopoulous and Russert shows. The man is on a different communication universe relative to the smirkey guy.

Clinton launches withering attack on Bush on Iraq, Katrina, budget Mon Sep 19, 2:32 AM ET

Former US president Bill Clinton sharply criticised George W. Bush for the Iraq War and the handling of Hurricane Katrina, and voiced alarm at the swelling US budget deficit.

Breaking with tradition under which US presidents mute criticisms of their successors, Clinton said the Bush administration had decided to invade Iraq "virtually alone and before UN inspections were completed, with no real urgency, no evidence that there were weapons of mass destruction."


Finally! This nice guy Bill was getting on my nerves.

What Americans need to understand is that ... every single day of the year, our government goes into the market and borrows money from other countries to finance Iraq, Afghanistan, Katrina, and our tax cuts," he said.

"We have never done this before. Never in the history of our republic have we ever financed a conflict, military conflict, by borrowing money from somewhere else."

Clinton added: "We depend on Japan, China, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, and Korea primarily to basically loan us money every day of the year to cover my tax cut and these conflicts and Katrina. I don't think it makes any sense."


Isn't that what you and CJ have been saying? Most Americans don't get this one at all. The Dems should be hitting home with this one every day of the week!
