Wasn't Bill just bragging a while back that he "needs very little sleep?" Obviously he needs more sleep than he thinks. If you start to fall asleep as soon as you hold still (like sitting), you're sleep deprived (or in "sleep debt").

Congratulations Huffo, who you can not stoop any lower I thought, you still manage to surprise !
The point is, Bill Clinton is a bigot and purposely showing disrespect to MLK by pretennding to nap !
What an arrogant racist !

Off with his head !

[Xrepug]

Bill was having a dream? Somebody check his pants...it was probably a wet one. LOL

[grumbles]

AMAZING!!!!! Dick Cheney sleeps during Cabinet meetings and noone says a word. I have been sleepy in church plenty of times and so have you. Must we critisize these people for everything?????????????????????????

And 19 were killed in a suicide bombing in Iraq yesterday.

Drudge Report ran a similar photo of bill and hillary with their eyes closed during coretta scott king's funeral. headline: clintons doze during service. as i looked at the closely cropped pic i noticed that everyone else's eyes were closed....could it possibly have been that they were nodding in prayer?... yes the bill video obviously showed a weary man, but hey, which of us hasnt nodded out to the drone of some long winded sail-boat fuel vendor? this campaign has some maturity issues to deal with on all sides, but lets dwell on the small shit, ok?

Give him a needed break.

He is running for president for the 3rd time. Giving stump speeches, tirelessly. Poor-thing needed to sleep, right????
After that surgery he has added 10 more years to his sagging age.

Dick Cheney also dozed off in one emergency meeting. So, can we say, NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN ?

"Clinton has a dream"

- Nice.

Last I checked, Bill wasn't running for office.

[joja]

Didn't Dick Cheney do the same thing recently during a cabinet meeting or something?

Hey, Hillary! Bill's imitating Reagan! He must want to be like him!!

What asses both of them are! No wonder the Republicans want her as the Dems' nominee!

God, there are some real pricks visiting this site. Bill Clinton has dedicated his life to public service. He works harder than most 30 year olds I know. At least he doesn't spend his retirement on the golf course, the natural ending for all Republican ex-presidents (except George Bush the First, who I am beginning to believe doesn't really know in his heart WHAT he is).

Like them or loath them, the last two Democratic presidents have spent their retirements doing more than anyone on this blog will ever accomplish.

I would not vote for Hillary (or Obama) if either is the nominee, as both are warmongerers. Nevertheless articles such as this one are stupid, outrageous and part of the reason the choice of candidates is mediocre.

Bill Clinton is a 61 year old guy who has had a heart attack and is working his butt off with little sleep. Taking a picture such as this one -- and even worse creating a blog over it -- is as despicable as any low-life paparazzi picture out there.

Cut this crap out.

The still frame is funny though. I wonder if he is embarrassed after their behavior over the past couple of weeks, especially on the King holiday. This guy keeps himself in the headlines. Funny though!

I cannot begin to count the number of times I've drifted off in church. And that's when I was in my 30's, after taking it easy on Saturday, and attending first thing on Sunday after sleeping 8 to 10 solid hours.

But I still learned not to judge others, and to treat others as I want myself to be treated.

You know you can really tell that this is arianna's site. She was a repub clinton hater in the 90s, and now is a repub clinton hater in progressive democrat clothing. I think that this spoof of hers is just another of the brilliant repub tactics to fool the dumb progressives into becoming clinton haters too-- choose obama, and the repubs will win again in 08. BRILLIANT!!
