Pot, meet Clinton, uh, Kettle, so to speak

June 3rd, 2008 . by TexasFred

President Clinton is hopping mad about Vanity Fair’s recent hit piece by writer Todd Purdum.

Reportedly, Clinton was asked by a reporter at a South Dakota event for his take on the story.

Clinton is quoted as calling Purdum sleazy, dishonest, slimy and a scumbag.”

Clinton added that Purdum, the husband of his former White House press secretary Dee Dee Meyers, was a “real slimy guy.”

Bill Clinton Calls Vanity Fair Writer ‘Scumbag’

Add to former President Clinton’s regrets this campaign season a stream of invective while commenting Monday on an unflattering article in Vanity Fair magazine.

“President Clinton was understandably upset about an outrageously unfair article,” Jay Carson, a spokesman for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign, said after her husband’s remarks appeared on the online Huffington Post, “but the language today was inappropriate and he wishes he had not used it.”

Huffington Post writer Mayhill Fowler reports that she approached the former president while he campaigned for his wife Monday in Milbank, S.D., and asked for his reaction to the article “The Comeback Id” by national editor Todd S. Purdum in the July issue of Vanity Fair.

Purdum mulls the state of Clinton’s mind given the wealth he has amassed in recent years, the negative impact he has had at times on his wife’s campaign, his negative comments about her rival, Barack Obama, the company he keeps with jet-setting millionaires, and his health after heart surgery in 2004. In analyzing Clinton in more than 9,500 words, which include those of anonymous sources, Purdum asks, “What’s the matter with him?”

Hillary Spokesman Says Bill Clinton Regrets ‘Scumbag’ Comment

Don’t you just have to laugh at how every time Big Bill spouts off Hillary’s campaign goes into immediate damage control mode?? But think about this for a minute, just how sleazy, dishonest, and slimy do you have to be for Bill Clinton to call you a “scum bag”?

Somehow, I see more humor in that accusation than I have seen from the Clinton campaign in a long time, because if anyone knows the true definitions of those words, it would be Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Lets see, there was Gennifer Flowers and Paula Jones, that covers ’sleazy’.

Then there was Monica Lewinsky, that brought a whole new definition to ‘slimy‘ don’t you think?

How about ‘dishonest’?

Would I did not have sex with that woman qualify as ‘dishonest’? Or maybe lying about it under oath, thereby leading to impeachment hearings?

Bill and his behavior, coupled with the ’shady‘ past of Hillary herself has been more than enough to make even the most jaded Democrats support a man rumored to be the ‘anti-Christ’, how much more disgusting can you get?? And according to some news sources it appears that Hillary is ready to throw in the towel, SOURCE, but since the MSM wouldn’t know the truth if it hit them in the face, I am taking a ‘wait and see’ attitude.

Americans are tired of the repetitiveness of a Bush, Clinton, Bush and possible Clinton White House, Bush/Clinton Dynasty, and while many say McCain will only be a continuation of the Bush legacy, I’m not so sure of that, McCain is a lot more of a free thinker than Bush and he doesn’t bring the baggage of a Clinton, plus, he brings a lot more intelligence than Bush, and he’s NOT Obama, so, there ya go, that’s the choices we have in front of us today.

Quite honestly, I still think we’d survive a Hillary presidency, but at what cost?? I am certain we’ll survive a McCain presidency, but an Obama presidency is a lose-lose situation no matter how you cut it, and God help us ALL if Obama and Clinton team up at the Democratic primary.

    Maybe ole Bill can debate the meaning of the words he used in his rant like he did with the word ‘is’.My, my sad to see how the mighty have fallen from their plaster-of-paris pedestals.
