Obama Supporter Claims Bill Clinton Hit Him In The Face

MSNBC News:

Robert Holeman came to Timken High School here today with a message to deliver to Bill Clinton. He did -- and he said the former president wasn't happy about it....

...Holeman said that Clinton responded by saying Obama came after him first. Holeman also described Clinton's reaction to him as "irate."

"I think he even hit me in the face with his hand," he said. "He did give me a little pop. It was okay, because I understand his tenacity for his wife." Clinton did engage Holeman for a few minutes, at times pointing directly at him. It was unclear whether he did make physical contact, however.

His tencity for his wife? It should be obvious to all who follow current political events, that Bill desperately wants to have his third term. If he had any consideration for his wife or her campaign he would have STFU and let her run it. Instead, he takes over and she lets him.

[etc]

Shut up already!

[partyofone]

ebbtide, very astute analysis. Many observers on all sides of politics have commented that Bill is running for a third term and Hillary is running to be his Chief of Staff, the first woman in history to hold that position, and the first person in history to hold that position with the title of President. Publicly, Hillary would be a ceremonial figure head, and a great source of pride for those women who are satisfied to advance professionlly solely on gender representation, not substance or merit.

What a pity that the media will run with this as if if were fact - I can hear Joe Scarborough already and I see the headlines now... actually, I'd rather not. Another example of how out of control and manipulative our media is - it's a sad commentary when lies in journalism are actually enjoyed, exploited and commonplace.

[BrooklynLager]

Doesn't Bill Clinton have, like, a 10 foot layer of Secret Service protection?

[etc]

Sure, but Obama's Uberschturmbama fuhrer still got him.

[gotalife]

"Obama spokesperson Ben LaBolt said Holeman was "absolutely not" a plant by the campaign. And a spokesperson for President Clinton who was near the president said there was no physical contact."

Take this lie down.

This is what Hillary had to say about Nafta. She changed her mind, leaving her hubby Bill--the architect of Nafta holding the sac. Take a listen:

This blog and MSNBC has lost all credibility due to it's obvious Obama bias.

The President does not deserve this bullshit but w does.

[MPeter]

Bill you have squandered your place in history. Your lies and hot temper that turns your cheeks pink have reduced you to a digrace. Get off the stage, you are an embarrassment to your wife and to America.

[partyofone]

The end of an era? No more red-faced finger wagging lies?

C'mon.

Most Obama supporters are two faced ... just use the other one.

Why does HuffPo even put crap like this out. Why is shit like this even reported. The guy was a schmuck, but I guess Obamatons think HRC hired the guy to be rude and then go out and dump on Bill Clinton, running to the press for his 15 minutes, which would cause backlash against Obama and thereby making Hillary Ruler of the Universe. Brilliant!!!

[thomdavis1]

and HOW does that comment make sense?

[jadez]

another example of the clintons support.

the least educated.

please dont have kids!
LOL

[SteveCox]

But you work at fucking Starbucks?

Bill Clinton could save a child from a burning building and MSNBC would report it as calculated dirty trick to help his wife get elected. And this is one of the biggest national media outlets in the country, part of the General Electric empire. The fact that all these networks have demonstrated such a blatant bias in favor of Obama brings into question if he really is the agent of change, rather than the agent of Wall Street and the G.O.P. Obama's speechwriter, who is responsible for all that lofty oratory, is Ben Rhodes, brother of Fox News VP David Rhodes. This candidacy seems to have been well planned and executed, not to mention underwritten early on by the Republicans. For more on these connections, see the article I've posted at thecityedition.com, which links to other sources.

[etc]

Only the blind couldn't see that.

[thomdavis1]

and YOU, yrm, portray a blatant bias in favor of a piece of shit HACK willing to say ANYTHING to get his sorry ass back in the white house
you say the media is favoring Obama? have you ever thought maybe the clintonistas have so many negatives that reporting them all takes all the airtime?
NO billary!!
GOBAMA!!!!

GE is the worlds largest arms manufacturer. Ratheon made the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima, and have made every American nuclear weapon since.

GE in the bag for Obama?

Hillary and Bill are the darlings of the Council on Foreign Relations. It was Hillary's foreign policy advisor, Richard Holbrooke who called for the ouster of Saddamm Hussein when he left the UN.

And what about the Builderberg Conference in Montreal in 2005? There's a movie with a scenen in it where she is greeted by David Rockerfeller, himself.

Please... just continue to ignore the following:

GObama!

[nellie]

Okay, HuffPo. You need to take this nonsense off the front page. Maybe put it in the Media section where this media hound belongs.

[MichiganJFrog]

Agreed.

[SteveCox]

truth hurts eh? That's how you all act on here all the time. It's ok to come out of the closet, your the left wingnuts. That's the real change you want. From right wingnuts..­.......to.­.....Left wingnuts..­...yes we can.

Obama 08 or will yell at you.

[gotalife]

It was not a plant and the President did not touch the idiot.

He should sue this blog and MSNBC for slander.

Pathetic.

[Gordon]

He should sue Arianna too.

[Beelzebul]

I hope Barack gives this girly man some hope that he'll survive Bill's brutal attack.

[DollarRequiem]

Well, your posts definitely answer the question, "Which writers are still out of work?"

This is "iron my shirt" with a twist. Read the whole story.

In New Hampshire, the results were off by someting like 15% of the polls. Watch for a similar margin if Hillary wins. It means they have Diebold in their pocket.

I wouldn't be surprised if what's-his-name gets another drunk driving coming back from making the payoff. It must be intoxicating to know you have the power to actaully KILL HOPE, itself.

GObama! (in droves)

[useyourbrain]

What the f... are you talking about here? You Obamatons have lost your collective mind. You are brainwashed, like Scientologists. You are the Borg. If someone points out a policy difference or challenges an opponent to a debate, when does that become an attack or a negative ad?

Bill Clinton knows his way around a word himself, and he doesn't need the white brother of a top executive at Fox (Rove's new employer -- actually, they were always his employer since they called the shots). The MSM will not cover what Bill has said at the rallys that get huge crowds, they only want to show something nasty so they can repeat the Clinton "attack" machine.
Why is it they cover BO's full speeches and only say what HRC said. Hmmm. Wonder if there is bias.

If BO gets the nod, he will be knocked off his pedestal by the negative shit storm that will be thrown at him.

With the way you BO Believers are about "new" and "change" you're like the people who can't wait for the next Apple product because the one that came out 3 months ago is so old. BO will become boring to you very soon and then what? We'll be stuck with him or McCain to fix the problems that need fixing? With what is going on with the economy and the violence all over the world, we need some experience -- some new experience. To compare HRC to GWB is insulting and intellectually dishonest. Things aren't going to change in Washington so quickly or easily and when the economy hits the crapper and millions are thrown out of their homes, banks and hedge funds collapse and the dollar falls even more and there's more unemployment, then what? Go to your preacher man?

"Hello, this is Obama headquarters"

"PRESS 1 for English"

"PRESS 2 for Obamaspeak. Then speak in vague non specific terms with a petty, sarcastic tone. Your nasty, Hillary hating reply may be recorded and transcribed for posting on the Huffington Post."

[GeorgeKaplan]

MORE Huffington Post BULLSHIT Sensationalizing a NON-STORY! A Headline Story THIS IS NOT!

Arianna keeps pushing the trash!

[etc]

Huffpost and Obama campaign tuned the Presidential election into a street gang fight, just imagine what would be, if he's the nominee.

[partyofone]

Huffpo is a truth teller. The Clintons and their supporters can't take the TRUTH.

[BUSHsurvivor]

This guy came there with an agenda. What an asshole. The cult and all their un-glory.

[partyofone]

Imagine in a DEMOCRACY someone with an opposing view attending a public political event. I know it's a radical concept, so out of keeping with the Bush-Clinton brand of sanatized events with selected participants, scripted questions and applause on cue.

[naturesway]

Another success for our former President Bill Clinton and for the USA. Kosova is Independent , finally. Congrats to the people of Kosova and to Bill Clinton. The right decision in 1999 led to a free and independent Kosova.
Here is what one native of Kosova wrote to Hillary:
~~~~~~~~~~­~~~~~~~~~"­Hillary,

I am actually an Albanian-American and a huge supporter of your candidacy for President. I want to personally thank you and President Clinton for all your work in Kosova. American flags were flying everywhere in Pristina today. THANK YOU ON BEHALF OF ALL ALBANIANS ALL OVER THE WORLD. We will never forget your help.

Yes We Will. Hillary '08!!!

[suntzu]

Whether this heckler was a nut or not is beside the point. For a former president of the United States to engage in this kind of rough and tumble (even if only verbal) with a non-entity from who knows where, is to say the least, demeaning to the office he once held. I don't know why one of his Secret Service detail is not assigned to calm Bill down when he has a hissy fit. In any case, I do not understand how this helps Hillary become president of the free world.

[useyourbrain]

Even MSNBC said the two were engaged in a conversation, why would you believe Clinton had a fit? Because Arrrrriannnnna said so. I wonder if she is still a front for the RNC?

[SteveCox]

LOL face it, Obama peeps are wingnuts. The story is out now.
