Frau Budgie has a quote on her blog that came to mind when I read her post below: "A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes -- attributed to Mark Twain."
Has there, or will there ever be a time when anything out of the mouth of Senor Bill is not a lie? Will there ever be a time when to his mind, it's not about him?
Bill Clinton the Jimmy Carter of the 21st century. Doing all he can to undo the nation.

Well, looks like our peerless ex-President Clinton, (on break from his busy schedule of running around the world, apologizing for America's existance) has (sort of) praised Bush for bringing up the immigration issue.
From FoxNews:
LOS ANGELES — Former President Bill Clinton praised President Bush on Saturday for supporting reforms that would allow millions of illegal immigrants to seek citizenship but said the debate in Congress is being fomented by Republicans who want to divide America.Ooops! Notice the "debate ... being fomented by Republicans who want to divide America" thingie.
"I'm proud of him for doing it and I thanked him for doing it,"he said of Bush during a"Cafe con Clinton"breakfast speech to the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, the nation's largest Hispanic civil rights advocacy group
"...Clinton also argued that the nation's government is controlled by Republican ideological hard-liners who want to use immigration to divide Americans and distract them from issues such as the war in Iraq and the health care crisis.Of course, "keeping his mouth shut" was never an issue for Bill -- particularly since there seems to be at least two sides of his mouth from which to speak.
Instead of equal opportunity, they support a"financial elite"because they favor"concentrated wealth and power,"Clinton said.
"They believe in a government that is secret, unaccountable and that maximizes its own power,"he said."They really believe the world works better if they run it and we keep our mouths shut."
Click to the CoalitionBlog for the latest and freshest on illegal immigration. ChristiKing says "Not!" to Si, Se Punde. Darrell picked up on an article about how Social Security helps track down illegal immigrants (who'duh thunk it!) Tom passed on an article about how a Dallas hospital wants to bill Mexico to help defray the costs of treating Mexican citizens. (And congratulations to Tom for getting his own newspaper column!) Finally, Rev. Brian Bonner has his own weekend show on WideAwakesRadio ... which is now on the air, although I think they're still having a few tech problems. Look for the "listen live" button.
