‘Shut up and listen’: Bill Clinton tells off Marine during rally

Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

I'm aware of what Sean's mother has said, yes.

Then, since you had this friend you should also know it's not just Sean's mother, but the family members of three of the four saying the same thing.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

He stood up pretending to ask a question. A United States Marine. Hiding his intentions like a coward. Disgraceful. If he didn't want to listen, he shouldn't have been there in the first place. He didn't want to participate in America's political process. He wanted to yell about **** he doesn't understand.

I find it funny that you are all for free speech when people harass republican events, but how dare someone interrupt a Clinton.
the hypocrisy of the left shines again.

Hillary did lie by the way. you evidently didn't read that on the huffpo or daily kos.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

Well this is awkward... They're all right.

Bill was right - the man was being mouthy and rude and needed to simply state his view and question and give due respect to President Clinton. (Yes - still calling him President even though he's out of office, as is the tradition. It is a rarely held title well earned).

And Mrs. Clinton did lie, admittedly in her own words via email, for which she needs to be held accountable so the Marine is right to bring that up, too.

And so on, so forth. They're all right in some fashion. Just, they were all dicks about it, too. Even Mrs. Clinton.

Respect must be earned. Bill Clinton never earned mine, and neither has his criminal wife. Apparently he never earned the respect of that fine young Marine either.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

That marine is an asshole and an idiot. And he's a coward. Bill even asked him if he had the courage to listen to the answer, and that Marine did not have the courage to do so. Coward.

One of those four coffins contained a friend of mine, and seeing him used as a political attack by right-wing delusional ****nuts makes me see red.

And you honor your friend but cutting down his brethren who would have had his back.

Nice work.

I don't believe you. Nobody in any consulate would ever have used "Marine", "asshole" and "coward" in the same statement. That is the reason I don't believe you.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

I hate people that go to functions just to heckle and be @ssholes.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

I grew up in a navy household and was raised by a bunch of Navy chiefs. I spent 20 years in the AF. I work for the Dept of the Army.

Regardless of his cause, the Marine was being a dick. People should have the right to protest...fine. But they shouldnt be given carte blanche to disrupt speeches and rallies. He wasnt 'asking questions'. He didnt want answers. He was removed, and rightfully so.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

Well, how do you expect these elite dynasties to treat their peasant subjects? With respect?
HA...
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

Bill Clinton deserves what ever comes to him. I wonder how many others went to Vietnam in his place?

POS human being!
to answer your question, 1. ask how many went in place of Limbaugh, Cheney and Bush? Anyhoo RN, you can officially change your lean from slightly conservative to very conservative. Bill got the same deferment you or I could have gotten. He simply had to show his Rhodes Scholarship and fill out the appropriate form. Cheney and Limbaugh got deferments that could and should be mocked and may not have been available to me or you. But your hero Bush, got out of Vietnam by joining the Nat'l Guard. he got to skip the year long waiting list because his dad was a congressman. I don't know about you but that option wouldn't have been available to me.

Bush avoided active duty in Vietnam by enlisting in the National Guard, where he skipped to the top of a lengthy waiting list

White House Counters Attack on Bush's Military Service - latimes

We don't need to even discuss Bush going AWOL. The Texas strain of Affluenza seems especially resistant to treatment. Just remember, Bill's deferment is above reproach. Cheney's and Limbaugh are kinda iffy. But Bush clearly used connections to avoid Vietnam. so you by your standards, Bill, Limbaugh, Cheney and Bush are all "POS human beings". Don't worry, once you change your lean to very conservative, your high standards for Bill magically don't apply to Limbaugh, Cheney and Bush.
 
Re: ‘Shut up and listen’: Bill Clinton tells off Marine during rally

I look at this just like the protesters that show up at the Trump rallies. It isn't right to show up to be an ass at a private event. As much as I don't like slick Willy I think he showed some restraint and more patience than I would have.

I am shocked these 2 people got passed the vetting process.

Coward? seriously? I don't know what's worse you calling him a coward for daring to stand up to the guy, or Clinton himself who dodged the draft.


old man still has some hubris. Wow.

Meanwhile in other threads we get to listen to how protesters have a right to go to presidential rallies.


What's disgraceful is the bull**** the clintons have been peddling at the determent to veterans like this Marine.
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

Chicken Hawks are an exclusively Republican phenomenon.

Which veteran decided to bomb lybia?

which veteran orderd a surge in aghanistan?

Which veteran is currently droning the **** out of the middle east?
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

This is the difference between Clinton and our current President.
Clinton sat and waited patiently for the man to finish. He answered and didn't really get to ruffled until Bin Ghazi was mentioned.
This is pretty much what made him a good spokesperson and a good public figure for the U.S.

He wasn't mugged, he was faced with an angry soldier who wanted some answers. In fact, it is a series of questions he should have been well prepared for (not necessarily knew the answers to but been prepared either way).



suggesting he's a coward and telling him to sit down and shut up is waiting patiently to you?

Again..... my thoughts on Bush have already been posted on here. As far as Clinton goes, he would rather bully women than go heads up with another man. Total coward and and draft dodger.

RN, I get a lot of cowardly dodges from cons so yours is nothing special. The vague reference to "thoughts on bush have already been posted" means nothing and in no way addresses my post. I'm simply pointing out that the standard so you gleefully apply to President Clinton to call him a draft dodger applies more so to Cheney and Limbaugh. And by every standard Bush is a draft dodger. I don't even need to bring up him going AWOL. Lets focus on your flamingly hypocritical standard. I could have gotten the same deferment as President Clinton. I could not have gotten the special treatment Bush got when he" skipped to the top of a lengthy waiting list".

The subject is BC not DC.
RN, we've got plenty of cons here who don't understand the concept of a debate forum. we are discussing your flamingly hypocritical standards. Again, its a debate forum. You climbed on your high horse about draft dodging and now don't want to discuss actual draft dodging.

Vern, you are a pretty smart guy. And, I can see that you study politics by reading many of your posts.

I hated what Bush did, Cheney as well. I have said so in many other posts. It was disgusting how they went to war with the information that they had. Cheney was a draft dodger, while Bush did actually volunteer for Vietnam. (There is documented evidence that he did). Did Bush miss weekends with the Reserves......yup.........but many others also do as it is pretty lax in some commands.

Rush, I could care less about, as he is a entertainer and will never be in any form of office.

But, for you to say that I am leaning right, or being a hypocrite in my arguments is pretty unfair.

Clinton.........I stand firm. He is a disgusting man who abused the office, abused women, and has a documented letter of thanks for the people who helped him avoid being drafted.

You do know what a chicken hawk is, right? It most certainly does not include veterans.

Hint: who ordered all those things?
 
Re: Bill take a pounding for Hillary

Do you believe a veteran ordered all those things?

Why would I?

We were taking about people known to have dodged the draft. Do try keeping up.
