As if Jimmy Carter wasn’t bad enough last week we got a visit from Llib Notnilc.
No, not this notnilc. I refer of course to affable ol’ country boy ex-President Bill Clinton’s angry alter ego. You know, the man we see every so often when Bill “Chuckles” Clinton steps back and Llib “Moonbat Superhero” Notnilc steps forward. The eyes get squinty, lips purse. A finger wags and a raspy voice rails in a petulant tone against the injustice, the impudence of the mere posing of a question. As of late, the performance ultimately devolves into a fulsome little turgid screed against the ever conspiring right-wingers.
The most recent sighting came during Chris Wallace’s interview of Clinton on Fox.
A few years ago Llib Notnilc lashed out at Peter Jennings.
Back on November 18, 2004, in the midst of a quite positive ABC News prime-time special about the dedication of the Clinton presidential library, Bill Clinton angrily wagged his finger at Peter Jennings, accusing ABC of conspiring with Ken Starr to “repeat every little sleazy thing he leaked” during the investigation into Clinton’s perjury and obstruction of justice.
And then there is of course this classic from 1998.
But I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I’m going to say this again. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time – never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.
Liar. He was too distracted to worry about bin Laden, al Qaeda, or the resuscitation and spread of jihad. And too small a man to take responsibility for that fault.
And Bush, the pathological liar in cheif gets a pass…”we don’t torture, we don’t spy on Americans, there are WMD’s, we will pull out of iraq if asked…and on and on.
Is there anything this administration has not lied about?
The problem you’ve identified depends on what the meaning of the word is is.
He did cut taxes.
You’ve learned well…”meaning of the word.”
A lie is when you know plan D is going to cost x amount of dollars, you tell congress it is going to cost y amount of dollars, shit can the whistleblower guy that wants to tell the truth that plan D will cost x, then congress passes a bill on y, and then you say, oh golly, by the way plan D will in fact cost x.
Sick of it, and it is the way this administration operates. How can you stomach it?
