WASHINGTON – No comment? No way. You don't stop Bill Clinton when he's back at the White House with something to say.
Well, OK. He and President Barack Obama, two of the most famous men in the world, did need a little help getting a door unlocked first.
But then it was on.
The former president came before surprised reporters to let it be known that he endorsed the tax deal that Obama cut with the Republican Party, even though many Democrats were raising a fuss about it.
That was the news. But it wasn't the story.
What had the West Wing buzzing was the scene itself: Clinton in his element, like he had never left. And almost like he wasn't going to leave this time.
For one remarkable half hour, Clinton turned a seemingly slow Friday afternoon into his stage.
What a difference a decade makes, folks. A decade ago, Bill Clinton was the personality most hated by Republicans. Today, they were allies. A decade ago, Democrats defended Clinton vigorously. Today, if Clinton were in office, it would most likely be the Democrats impeaching him.
What a difference a decade makes.
NOTE TO THE GOP - Be very careful not to get too close to Clinton. Word is, he is still a very horny guy. :mrgreen:
