Bill Clinton: Flip-Flopper Extraordinaire

From Clarice Feldman at American Thinker:

Yesterday, Bill Clinton stated he's always opposed the war in Iraq, which if true would have placed him at odds with his position in 1998 when he bombed an aspirin factory just as he was about to be impeached, and -- more significantly -- with his wife's position when she voted to authorize the war.

Don Surber shows that it's also at odds with Clinton's stated position during the war:

CNN reported on June 23, 2004:

Former President Clinton has revealed that he continues to support President Bush's decision to go to war in Iraq but chastised the administration over the abuses at Abu Ghraib prison.

"I have repeatedly defended President Bush against the left on Iraq, even though I think he should have waited until the U.N. inspections were over," Clinton said in a Time magazine interview that will hit newsstands Monday, a day before the publication of his book "My Life."

So, why such an obvious and easy to prove fib? My guess is that he and Hil count on the public being clueless about their history and the media to cover for them. More importantly, this allows our "co-Presidents" to triangulate again: For those who are for the war, Hillary can point to her vote for it. For those who are opposed, there's Bill's transparent lie.

Feldman then cites a couple more examples showing Clinton's flip-flopping on whether or not he supported the war.

This is the Clintons, people. They play dirty, they lie, they repeatedly use questionable methods and have questionable friends/supporters, and they manipulate at every opportunity. They have perfected the divide-and-conquer strategy (for example, Bill never won a 50%+ majority of the vote in either of his presidential elections), and are using it again for Hillary's run at the White House.

Be aware.

Back in 1992, the new media was still very young, but now the playing field is quite different. Game on!

There's my two cents.
