Aw, s**t: Yet another Billbo eruption

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 23, 2008 08:48 AM

I did a quick little piece last night for the NYPost on Billbo’s latest purple fit. An excerpt:

AW, “s–t” – another Billbo eruption.

Back in January, worried Democrats pleaded with Bill Clinton to zip his wildly flapping lips.

Teddy Kennedy and Rahm Emanuel reportedly told him to tone down the attacks on Barack Obama. None would comment on the record about those discussions. But based on his latest profanity-laced comments caught during a radio interview with a Philadelphia station on Monday, we don’t have to guess how Clinton reacted:

“I don’t think I should take any s–t from anybody.”

Clinton was talking to a WHYY host who asked him about his comparison of Obama’s win in South Carolina to Jesse Jackson’s win there in 1984.

The host noted that a black Philadelphia official had switched her support after construing Clinton’s remarks in South Carolina as an effort to marginalize Obama as “the black candidate.”

The host hit Clinton’s touchy-touchy spot.

How dare she have the audacity to suggest that he, Bill “First Black President” Clinton, had engaged in race-baiting! After all, his office is in Harlem – “and Harlem voted for Hillary, by the way” – he fumed.

Clinton then went, well, all Clinton on the host and on the Obama camp, accusing them of “playing the race card” (those were his exact words) and plotting to “do it all along.”

The narcissism, the conspiratorial mindset, the Olympics-sized sense of entitlement, liberal immunity, and indignation, the utter lack of discipline. It was a classic Clintonian moment. All that was missing was a bald-faced lie…

… On a momentous primary night that should have been all about Her, The Big He made it all about Him. As her macho campaign ad baited Obama about his inability to stand the heat in the kitchen, her own husband was melting down in front of the cameras.

This comes on the heels of his humiliatingly false, non-defense defense of Hillary’s Bosnia sniper fire fable – wherein he insisted she only told the lie once (it was three times) and late at night when she was “exhausted” (try well-rested and well-practiced, dating back to December) – and a multitude of outbursts against other reporters meekly raising questions about his racially divisive comments and tactics.

The finger-wagging king of purple fits can’t control his temper, his mouth, or his self-destructive egotism. He may well cost his wife any slim chance she has left of emerging victorious in Denver this August.

Karl Rove couldn’t have planted a more effective saboteur.

    The LA Times and the Washington Post seem to have left the whole episode out, not just four words. I see what you’re driving at, but don’t agree that in this case it’s that big a deal. And while it may seem like parroting to you, I had read several of the articles yeterday, and knew what it was reported he had said. My point was not simply to parrot Michelle, but that he has a temper and a short fuse, and I think he feels he doesn’t have to take anything from anybody – “on that” or for any reason – and it can lead to, well who knows?

    I agree with you AlohaGuy. My point is that you are absolutely right and that there are tons of opportunities to rightly call bill out, so why cherry-pick a quote and mischaracterize what was said and to whom? I don’t like it when the left does it, and it doesn’t help for us to engage in it. Mahalo.

    Man I wish I had gotten here sooner. I think I saw Soap’s roadsign on my last trip back home to Florida!

    As for Slick — someone commented that he is likely suffering a post surgical complication. I tend to agree. What’s interesting is that the Hill-machine either isn’t smart enough or isn’t strong enough to stick a sock in his mouth.

    Maybe if they tossed an intern at him….naw, that’d only work for a couple of minutes.

    Well…we ended up getting the lie. Later, when confronted with having claimed Obama was using the race card, Clintin told a batch of reporters that he never saidthose words, and that it was just another attempt to slander ol Bill by claiming he did.

    Yup…classic Billy-Boy indeed.

    Fair enough. Bill Clinton can be embarrassing, very embarrassing.

    Still, he was a better President than Reagan or any of the Bushes. Balanced budget, rising middle class income (after inflation), job creation, military interventions with few American lives lost, … .

    Military interventions that were unsuccessful!

    Did he kill Osama? NO! We didn’t even have the right targets!

    And what about former Yugoslavia? All bombing!

    That’s why there were less casulties, and he didn’t have the stomach for more of somalia.

    And a better president? Then why was he nearly impeached?

    Sex in the oval office. Gotta love post-modern liberalism.

    Even if that didn’t happen, he still is a baby-killer.
