I watched the freedom rally of taxpaying teabaggers on c-span, on Sept. 12th. A black man got on the podium to speak and he said and I quote.

"Did you think you heard hope and change? What obama meant was ropes and chains." Gotta love it.

The greater story about Bill Clinton's conduct dealt with denying justice to a woman (who filed a sexual assault charge against him) by covering up evidence of a pattern of behavior.

The major issues were: (1) obstruction of justice (resulting from his perjury); (2) perjury (regarding Lewinski & Flowers); & (3) intimidation of victims (regarding Willey, Broaddrick, & more).

The affair with Lewinsky, which should have been no more than a minor sideshow, has been transformed into the main event.

It is the Leftist media's M.O. to protect their heroes at all costs. By downplaying the REAL story & emphasizing an ANECDOTE, they count on the U.S.A.D.D.'s short attention span to forget the real issue.

I also believe that Kenneth Starr under-prosecuted the case--professional courtesy, I guess.

Yes, there is a right-wing conspiracy to bring down Obama. (Just as there would have been the same conspiracy to bring down Hillary had she won.)

But Clinton is right. It's not as effective as it used to be, mainly because there are now outlets on the internet and, even, the mainstream media to expose the right's propoganda.

Obama's approval ratings are down to the mid-50s, but Republican congressional approval ratings are in the teens. It seems the more the right trashes Obama, the lower the public's opinion of the Republicans. So, keep it up!

Can you say 'paid left wing troll'? Which is really sad considering the TQQ (troll quality quotient). Someone is not getting what they are paying for.

The other possibility is that it is some sad home schooled teen who does not leave their room. That would explain alot.

We had to choose between a fake Democrat and a real one.

War Hero doesn't sell like it used to. Sen. McCain will be revered for his service in Viet Nam. His antics in the Senate were his undoing. Having President Bush being associated with the right wing was bad enough; imagine having McCain in there as well...

Vast Conspiracy seems like an Oxymoron. Conspiracy = hidden, which is pretty much not happening when it is vast. I do think the term Vast is accurate, since almost 60% of the general public (over 70% of independents and over 80% of Republicans) are opposed to government-provided or mandated health care. The majority are in favor of some of the Republican proposals, including Tort Reform and more competition (no state mandates, allowing for more competition from other states).

I understand the "Right-Wing", since most of those opposing this are fiscal conservatives. Theoretically, fiscal conservatives should be in favor of less government spending and this tends to be one of the defining principles of the "Right" (and many independents/Libertarians).

Barring some drastic turn, in 2012 we will reelect the real president we elected in 2008.

Don't say things like that! I just had lunch!

somebody make her stop, that's just scary....

What did Rush say? I don't listen to him so have no idea what you are drooling on about.

And those websites? HA!! yeah I've been to some of those, talk about hate speech.

No I and the majority here are going on what we see, not what we hear. But if it makes you feel better to think "all conservatives are crazy" like your lefty media tells you to think, you go right ahead.

"I suppose you're going to blame his rock-bottom approval ratings on the "vast right wing conspiracy" too?"

His approval ratings are hardly "rock bottom". And ratings are the toys of pollsters and have no real meaning.

What you are seeing is similar to what we had last week. Our store had a stockroom that needed cleaning and reorganizing. Everyone supported this and was enthused about getting it done. That is until they realized that this meant someone would have to sweep, someone would have to sort out recyclables from trash, Someone would have to take out the trash, etc. Enthusiasm waned as people actually had to do work, but support for the overall goal remained the same. Same principle here. Obama's support is strong, but the reality that we will have to work to make these things happen rains on the parade.

"I can't wait until we elect a real president in 2012."

Barring some drastic turn, in 2012 we will reelect the real president we elected in 2008.

I think Obama plays "this President" on TV. I suppose you're going to blame his rock-bottom approval ratings on the "vast right wing conspiracy" too?

I can't wait until we elect a real president in 2012.

If the right wing were vast to begin with, wouldn't they have won the election?

Its time that BJ join Jimmah and STFU!

If you watch the clip Billy says that this alleged conspiracy is smaller than the one the one aligned against him. He specifically said this was due to our Country's "CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS". This from the man who cheered (along with a few hundred deluded Portland State University students in 1998) the announcement that in 2050 (now revised to 2042) whites would become a minority in America.

To label the opposition a "conspiracy" is just more asinine name calling.

But, his observation that America's "changing demographics" has something to do with the political balance of power is worth thinking about. The tea party, fair tax, pro constitution crowd is overwhelmingly white. This fact has not gone unnoticed by the Socialists, hence the recent hullabaloo over the "racisss" opposition to Obama.

America is an outgrowth of Christianity and English civilization. Its roots are European. The previous waves of immigrants who came to its shores not only deliberately assimilated, but embraced a common national identity: They became Americans. Their children and grand children are attending tea parties. They comprise the so called “vast” right wing conspiracy, and they are not the problem. The problem is the sincerely vast multicultural Marxist conspiracy that is hell bent on “change”. They seek the dispossession and ultimately the destruction of pre-1965 America.

Instead of scouring the crowds to find and photograph a few token minorities, instead of cowering and screaming ‘We’re not racisss!!!...’, how about reversing the criticism and asking why are our newly immigrated third world friends not joining us in these protests? Why don’t they care about the Constitution? Why do they seem to love Socialism? Why are they not assimilating with us? They are certainly welcome, are they not? You’d be hard pressed to find a safer environment than a tea party…

I personally believe we have passed the tipping point and that we can’t vote ourselves out of this mess. Having read this board since its inception I know that most of you still believe you can fix things through your elected officials (a European notion that is becoming more quaint by the hour). Well, I hope you’re right and I’m wrong. But no matter… The real fight is on the horizon with the next push for amnesty, and if the vast right wing conspiracy fails to stop it, well, mmmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm.

heyyyyy......bill what do you mean is is is.......huh?????

do I want a cigar?????? a luinski???? hell no!!!

wait I'll give it to a friend......

What exactly are yall denying? That there is no conspiracy or that you don't want him to fail?

This isn't so much a conspiracy as it is common knowledge.

The vast majority of the right wing want Pres. Obama to fail and those pushing hardest have said so publicly.

This just goes along with the description that the right has become the party of 'No'.

Nuff said ...

I am a proud member of the VRWC and I want my t-shirt.

The conspiracy to convince the average american that health insurance companies are your friend.

The conspiracy to convince the average american that it was the democrats fault that we are in this recession after 8 years of total domination by the republicans.

The conspiracy to lead the average american that spending 800 billion on iraq was just jim dandy but if we vote to spend 1 trillion on ourselves to improve _our_ roads and bridges that is just the worst thing ever.

The conspiracy to blame Obama for everything when he hasn't even been involved in politics long enough to have made a difference.

This is the reason I have not been able to lose weight...a vast right-chicken-wing conspiracy.

Matt,

I find that calling Ms. Lewinsky that to be quite humorous.

Thank you.

Bill people are now learning of a REAL conspiracy that you are part of and that is the New World Order.

It's not a "vast right-wing conspiracy". I like to think of it more as the "Great Awakening of 2009". As more and more people discover just who Barack Obama is and what he represents, more and more of his policies, socialist dreams and ambitions will fall by the wayside. It's easy to blame an unknown, unseen "right wing conspiracy" for your failings. It's more difficult to admit your overall ideology is fatally flawed.

Anyone who buys into Neal's suggestion that this is somehow a problem unique to Democrats or liberals is a sucker. Both sides do this -- GOP apologists said the MSM was biased against Bush, yet it was Charles Krauthammer who coined the term Bush Derangement Syndrome. If Krauthammer or Boortz were more intelectually honest they would coin the term Party In Power Derangement Syndrome.

You forgot to mention that it was a vast right-wing conspirancy who are all RACISTS!

Sure, blame the repubs for all the failures. But, God forbid us from blaming the libs and elite media and their negative reports on the war during the Bush years. This is getting old. I'm just glad to see it looks like people are starting to wake up and ignore these asinine arguments.

"Barack Obama can't get healthcare legislation passed, because of the vast right-wing conspiracy."

They hold the majority in both chambers on capitol hill.

"Barack Obama can't commit more troops to Afghanistan, because of the vast right-wing conspiracy."

They hold the majority in both chambers on capitol hill.

"Barack Obama can't stand up to Iran or Russia or Venezuela or North Korea, because of the vast right-wing conspiracy."

He has no desire to stand up because he believes it is the United States that is wrong.

"Barack Obama can't convince the American public that we must pass global warming legislation, because of the vast right-wing conspiracy."

They hold the majority in both chambers on capitol hill.

"Barack Obama can't stimulate our economy to create more jobs, because of the vast right-wing conspiracy."

Wouldn't work with or without the alleged vast right-wing conspiracy.

It is not important AT ALL if Obama fails or succeeds. The success of America is all that matters and I'm not convinced Obama is the way to achieve that. Obama is at best, a temporary employee of the American people. Presidents come and go. Success of the American people can only be hampered by interference from government.

We need to be free to succeed and free to fail as well! Long lasting success is often preceeded by several failures. Ask most successful people, they have failed in some endeavor at least once.

We don't need the government trying to "pick us up" at every step. Just back off and we'll do just fine with a few stumbles.
