I will be back into Democratic party if you folks find a better candidate next time.

Mysteriously, Bill Clinton now thinks that "Barack Obama is ready to be president of the United States”, which proves that he surrendered and lost control of the Dems' party that he ruled since 1992.
Bill suggested that Obama is ‘ready’ to lead the world because of ‘his good instincts’ which proved that he could not find better things to say about Obama that ended the Clintons ruling era on the most radical left wing party in US history.
Bill Clinton thinks that pacifist loser Barack is on the right side of history …and he can be commander in chief like he was…with no experience and as perfect defeatist… which sounds like a joke.
The drunken sailor liberals in the convention chanted "Yes we can" which proves that their defeat in the coming soon in the elections…just a matter of about 80 days.

Bill said he won't attend Obama's acceptance speech. I don't believe was sincere. He was probably told what to say.

Bill suggest Obama isn't ready during the Primary and now suggest he is ready?

This is a deeply discounted endorsment.

Hillary told us Obama is not ready to lead and so did Joe Biden.

Which lie are we supposed to believe?

Clinton:

With Joe Biden's experience and wisdom, supporting Barack Obama's proven understanding, insight, and good instincts, America will have the national security leadership we need.

Barack Obama is ready to lead America and restore American leadership in the world. Ready to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. Barack Obama is ready to be President of the United States.

Clinton:

The choice is clear. The Republicans will nominate a good man who served our country heroically and suffered terribly in Vietnam. He loves our country every bit as much as we all do. As a Senator, he has shown his independence on several issues. But on the two great questions of this election, how to rebuild the American Dream and how to restore America's leadership in the world, he still embraces the extreme philosophy which has defined his party for more than 25 years, a philosophy we never had a real chance to see in action until 2001, when the Republicans finally gained control of both the White House and Congress. Then we saw what would happen to America if the policies they had talked about for decades were implemented.

They took us from record surpluses to an exploding national debt; from over 22 million new jobs down to 5 million; from an increase in working family incomes of $7,500 to a decline of more than $2,000; from almost 8 million Americans moving out of poverty to more than 5 and a half million falling into poverty - and millions more losing their health insurance.

Now, in spite of all the evidence, their candidate is promising more of the same.

Clinton said:

My fellow Democrats, sixteen years ago, you gave me the profound honor to lead our party to victory and to lead our nation to a new era of peace and broadly shared prosperity.

Together, we prevailed in a campaign in which the Republicans said I was too young and too inexperienced to be Commander-in-Chief. Sound familiar? It didn't work in 1992, because we were on the right side of history. And it won't work in 2008, because Barack Obama is on the right side of history.

And Clinton is right.

Because the Clinton's goal was to get back in the White House, pure and simple. And Bill did not think that they could be beaten. When they got beat, he got mad, which was understandable. But don't get it confused...Bill Clinton knows exactly where his grass gets watered at...And it is not across the Isle!! He will support Barack Obama because it is the right thing to do.

Sorry, repugnants, but it was a great night to be a democrat.

Thank you Mr. Clinton

Thank you Mr. Kerry

Thank you Bo (sp?) Biden

Thank you Senator Biden

And thank you to Senator Obama for the great full stop to the end of the evening.

A great night full of inspiration, innovation, information, insight and desire for a new era of leadership, honesty, intellect and intelligence in our president.
Wonderful!

Who would want an endorsement from a disgrace like the cigar wielding President Bill Clinton...

America had the misfortune to have Bill Clinton as its president in June 1994, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of D-Day. For the sake of a phony photo opportunity, Clinton made a mockery of the sacrifice of thousands of brave troops who bled the beach red at Normandy fifty years earlier. Remember? There he was, the President of the United States, walking along the beach, looking contemplative, as though he was completely unaware of the camera recording his actions, when he happened upon a pile of stones. Kneeling down, he formed them into the shape of a cross. It was all very touching, until it was revealed that the stones were placed there by advance men, and Clinton was fully aware of the entire charade.

Any of you slanderous democRat scumbags care to commit?

He will support Barack Obama because it is the right thing... to do to keep the DNC pacified until 2012 when Obama has failed miserably or McCain retires after one term.

Both clintoon and the messiah get their grass watered by idiots like you and those who disdain Americanism and want to impose euro-socialism across this land...Is that the right thing to do to your country, doofus?

Why didn't the democRat blow-bag John Kerry hold up a copy of The National Enquirer and explain why there wasn't any mention of John Edwards?

So the GOP thugs threatened to kneecap the man and he had to back off a little bit. The UN mandate will still expire in December. The GOP will be out of power in January. And then the Democrats can start an intelligent foreign policy.
Bush has still been forced out of his hole. The GOP has agreed to a withdrawal.
Attention you democRat Skidmark!!

As I recall, did you or did you not mention you are a member of moveon.org ? And, isn't moveon.org a key contributor to the Obama Campaign to screw America?

And isn't moveon.org the slugs who called General David Petraeus "General Betrayus" in a 10 page newspaper ad? Tell this forum the truth about Obama’s scumbag lowlife socialist contributors and that includes you.

Did candidate Obama denounce his key contributor’s stinking slanderous smear campaign against General David Petraeus or did he ignore it like he ignored the anti-American filth spewed by Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Louis Farrakhan, Father Phleger et al?

Perhaps you could list Obama's Military Service? I'll help you out with this one, it may be very difficult for you to admit you have nothing but poop between your ears...

Barack Hussein Obama's Military Service: "ZERO." Once again: "ZERO." And Once Again: "ZERO."

Please explain to this forum how the ZERO Military experience candidate Barack Obama could vote against the mission in Iraq and vote against the surge and now he wants to command the mission in Iraq...Explain it.

And after you're done explaining the above explain fully what makes Obama qualified to be president...And, spare the copy and paste platitudes and trinket promises.

No, Clinton loves this country - which is why he took such good care of it for 8 prosperous years. And we libs LOVE this country as well. That doesn't mean we have to love what the current administration has been doing.

Would it be fair to accuse YOU of hating this country while Clinton was in office?

As always, Bill Clintons' speech is political gold. Hey, all you Hillary supporters, and undecided Dems, you definitely no NOT want to vote for any party the Clintons are not in! Great, great speech President Clinton. Hillary hit it out of the BallPark last night, and Mr. Clinton dropped the H-bomb. Bidens' speech was moving, and just hit home to all issues we Americans are truly concerned with. They will pull the vote in November! Just a note to Mr. Clinton. Thank-you for bringing unity to our party. No matter which side of the fence we sit on, your endorsement is extremely important. My sincere and heartfelt thanks.

I meant comment but not COMMENT...that's SHOUTING.
Furthermore, it was not just a choreographed moment. It was an ultra lowlife sleazy choreographed moment for a self-serving lowlife bastard who stunk up Normandy...Perhaps you should focus on the pathetic fact you stooped to skate by that fact, chump.

HUSSAIN OBAMA, as all liberals, including the media, are:

1) PRO-CRIME
2) for outrageous taxes
3) for illegal mexican
4) for fattening obese Welfare moms
5) anti-military, anti-police
6) anti-patriotic
7) Anti-all Religions except for islam
8) against gun ownership
9) against heterosexuality
10) for bestiality
11) for dumming down its population
12) for gang-bangers
13) the reetarded - they are now smarter than Einstein
14) for breaking up traditional families and replacing them with homosexual couples.
15) they support our enemies here and abroad, and chatise soldiers and the police for doing their jobs.

A black like HUSSAIN OBAMA can be a hard-core RACIST and a FANTATICAL RADICAL MUSLIM and the liberals condone and support him.

HUSSAIN can be arrogant, narcissistic and have nothing between is over-sized ears and liberals cheer him for it.
