I didn’t tape the show and therefore can’t give a verbatim quote. I’m sure plenty of other people around here must have seen it though. Perhaps they can chime in if you feel my version might be amiss. (Though I’m sure they would have by now if it was.)
Heh. Because it’s the anti-conservative faction that’s having the vapors over long-expired irrelevancies that necessitated the posting of this thread?
ETA: It should be noted that we currently have a president who admitted to not only experimenting with various drugs, but of using them over a period of time. I think Clinton’s non-inhalation and the necessity of lying about it if you want to be president is more or less moot.
I’m really glad nobody heard me laughing out loud at this. I wouldn’t have wanted to have to explain what was so funny.
And when it’s irrelevant and trivial. Had he said something like: “Eh, I knew tax increases were a bad thing all along” or something–THAT would be an issue. Nobody with half a brain gives a shit if he equivocated on marijuana use eighteen years ago.
Also irrelevant. I don’t care for Palin’s views or her approach to government (anymore–she actually was quite admirable early in her gubernatorial term), but her sexuality is her business and her family’s. Her private time with ladies is an issue for her and Todd, not the public sphere.
Sure, it’s stupid to get all offended… or frankly even surprised… about Clinton lying and continuing to lie about really stupid shit, but it’s just as stupid to defend, hand wave, tu quoque on Clinton’s behalf for this and then suggest the OP get off the board for posting it.
This thread shoulda sunk like Natalie Wood from the start.
What is Truth? said jesting Bill Clinton and stayed not for an answer.
sigh
The thread isn’t about what he did eighteen years ago, it’s about what he did last night!
:smack: Cripes.
This to me even more so says why continue to lie about it? Hell, just say it. “I smoked that joint like Johnny Weir on a top with a gold medal for sale.”
I’m shocked. I’m outraged at the ourageous outrageousness of this entire outrageous outrage.
No, not really. I never gave a shit if he inhaled or not.
In my city, they actually are socialist. The workers at the railroad’s roundhouse built a sauna and reading room for themselves, which grew into a community library, which eventually became the city’s public library.
:rolleyes:A lying politician? Jesus, what’s next? Crooked cops? Racism in the south? What is this country coming to?
Including our own CIA and US Army. They even wrote reports about it. That entire subject was worked over, and beat to death here on The Dope, many many times.
Must be that “selective memory” thing again :rolleyes:
No, dumbass. It’s about his reflection on events nearly a generation ago.
Take your meds and get a clue.
Sure… and his reflection a generation later is STILL a fucking lie. It’s cringe-worthy. You never had a friend tell a repeated lie that doesn’t matter and say, “Dude, really? You’re still lying about that? Nobody believed you back in the day, why are you still lying about it now? What the fuck?”
Thanks for making my point for me. Nobody with half a brain gives a damn. Nobody with half a brain gave a damn when Carson was joking about this on the Tonight Show. Cringe-worthy? Nah.
Please forgive my ignorance, but why is that a bad thing. I skimmed over her wiki article and just saw that she was a senator that Clinton backed.
I can’t speak for him but I use the contretemps of lots of Republican politicians to paint Republicans in general as immoral hypocrites.
Well thats cuz their half stupid… Those with a full brain are cringing and saying “No dude, you were not the fifth Beatle. No matter how many times you say it, no one beleives you. Stop spreading that shit. It’s embarassing. Just… fucking stop.”
Yeah, it was a reflection. A reflection that was a deliberate lie. He lied last night about what he said eighteen years ago, and he lied last night about what his opponents allegedly did eighteen years ago.
And anybody who saw what he said last night and didn’t know any better, like, oh, I don’t know, everybody who was too young then or has since forgotten, might possibly believe him and buy into the scam that he’s just a jocular good guy and that Pubbies are dishonest meanies who made him look bad, which is exactly what he wants people to think.
He’s a lying scumbag and people need not to forget it.
