Bill Clinton Predicts 'Some Sort Of' Super Committee Plan

Back Bay Patch:

Clinton greeted a steady stream of people hailing from next door, to New Zealand, shaking every person's hand and thanking them for attending. He also addressed the press, answering a question about the bipartisan struggle to agree on a $1.2 trillion deficit reduction plan - see the attached video.

Though he may have some constructive points, he is still hiding behind the mess that he allowed to happen. He acknowledges what the T-baggers mantra was but, what he won't say is that it will take the Occupiers to demand a correction to this downward economic spiral of the country that he and W have placed the nation on and now it's up to the current President to work feverishly through a climate of extreme hatred to try to repair this heavy sinking boat of greed, selfishness, and incompetence, with very little help but all the blame.

Hmmm. I just noticed that most of these posts are pretty old, and there have only been 27 comments. Strange, to hear Chris Matthews and other old line commentators tell it, Clinton is the new coming of the elder statesman that everybody wants to consult.

Maybe not.

I tend to agree with Bill.
This will blow over soon. No thanks to Obama.

Clinton always has a comment (right or wrong), so he is an easy "mark" to help a reporter to write a “filler article” for the day.

Notice how you don't hear Bush weighing in. Class.

Bet Hillary hates these kind of stories. She's actually a potential candidate and no cares what she thinks. I guess it's because Bill is better at groping around with ideas :-)

Hillary is Mrs. Bill Clinton. That alone has gotten her this far, but it will never make her president.

Bill woulda brought in some bright young interns, ordered some pizza and cigars, and gone late into the night, every night. No, he might not have gotten to the solution, but he sure would have ensured he focused like a laser beam on the uh, the uh....

add to that de-regulation of Wall Street which he helped the GOP Congress craft and then SIGNED into law.

I cannot count the numer of Republicans who wish Clinton were still President. Another amendment which like Prohibition was a bad idea. I strongly support age limits but not term limits.

Where are you counting all of these Republicans who want Clinton? As I recall they impeached him, and would most likely do it again.

[Cacey]

Given the fact that most of the members of the Republican Impeachment Commite were voted out of office following their farcical attempt, do you really think that?

Dear Bill, put back the Glass-Stegall Act and we will be on our way out of this mess.  But there is a reason why our politicians refuse to do so, they are not through with us just yet.

more than "a reason" ... in Bill's case its over 100 million reason$, and still growing.

We all know how he treats women, not mere allegations either.
Why is he such a darling of the left?

We all know how BushCo lied that led to the deaths and maimings of thousands yet the toothless yuckabillies voted for him twice. Explain your lunacy.

Bill Clinton is not the President and never will be again, so stop printing what the heck he thinks. Bill Clinton needs to be ashamed of what he has done to those people in Hati, he has put the same Trailers to be used as schools to teach kids in as the terrible Trailers they sent to NO after Hurricane Katrina. The Trailers also have a host of problems, from mold to sweltering heat to shoddy construction. Most disturbing, they were manufactured by the same company, Clayton Homes, that is being sued in the United States for providing FEMA with formaldehyde-laced trailers in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Air samples collected from twelve Haiti trailers detected worrying levels of this carcinogen in one, according to laboratory results obtained as part of a joint investigation by The Nation and The Nation Institute's Investigative Fund.
