Kerry accuses Clinton of 'abusing' the truth

Clintons spit lies. It is time the media and politicians call it that. Its ugly, but that is what the Clintons are. Snakes. Poisoners. Liars.

Is that Gerry Callahan's post above hiding as Joshua?

I totally agree Joshua =)

Obama’s campaign clearly reflects that he is willing, ready, and able to engage in a productive, transparent dialogue with the American people, rather than the lobbyists and the political machines which have teared our nation apart and ruined our domestic economy.

This nation needs something fresh, clean, and uncorrupted. Someone without blood on their hands, not another Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton, family dictated regime. WAKE UP PEOPLE. WAKE UP.

Billary have been over the top in a disgusting, low campaign against Obama. I am female, white liberal; but now I will never vote for HRC in the general election. if she, unfortunately, wins the democratic primary I will vote for McCain, even though his position on Iraq is anathema to me. At least, he is honest. Our country needs a president with honesty, integrity; not the say-anything, do -anything politics of this power-hungry couple. No former president has ever got out on the campaign trail and engaged in such distorting tactics. Billary have had their day in the sun. It is now time for them to take their sleazy politics and crawl back into retirement. Democrats, we need to wake up as a party before we go down to another defeat by nominating Billary.

whether it's obama ,clinton romney theres a joke he did nothing for us in mass.doesn't matter they are all full of shit. it all sounds good but none of them can ever get anything done .nobody has lowered my taxes made haealth insurance any cheaper etc...

let's all now pause as each campaign sends interns here to post carefully scripted responses...

Bill Clinton is like an anchor around the feet of the Democratic Party. On the bright side, the next sex scandal -- virtually inevitable, knowing Bill -- should wipe them out of national politics once and for all.

what lies? Clinton is telling it like it is for better or worse. Give me an example of a lie he has told about Obama?

I'm at a Dunkin' Donuts in Chelsea. Come get me.

Can we all agree the real problem here is not just Bill, but the DLC, nobody is talking about it and it is one thing that Obama and Edwards have actively stepped away from over the years and Hillary is the head of it. Down with the DLC, no more neo-cons in the ranks of the mildly leaning left democrats.

Chelsea ,have you read the paper or watched TV in the last few weeks? It would be easier if you told us what truths Bill has said.

billary are a dreadfully power-hungry couple who will say anything to get elected. do we really need bill in the white house again? would you want your daughter working as an intern in another clinton white house?they consider only polls when deciding what stance to take on any particular issue. it's thanks to billary that bin laden is even alive today. billary had several chances to kill him and decided not to do it at the last minute. send them both back to arkansas, or new york, or illinois, or wherever they say they want to be from.

What has John Kerry done for Massacusetts lately?....Nothing. In his quest to remain relevant on the national stage, when he should be working for the state he reprensents, he now injects himself into the presidential election. Guess what Mr. Kerry you'll soon have an election yourself and don't be surprised if people have had enough of you and your complete disregard for your own office.

Barack "Change We Can Believe In" Obama is just like Deval "Together We Can" Patrick. They'll both say anything to get elected and run a kumbaya campaign. Remember Deval promised that he'll lower real estate taxes and add 1,000 new cops? After he got elected, he weaseled out of his campaign promises. Obama will be no different.

Just ask John Kerry...

Kerry should have pointed out the GWB lies in 2004 and keep his schnozz out of THIS election.

Obama, Clinton, McCain, Edwards or Ron Paul would all make excellent presidents IMHO.

What lies? How about 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman' ?

Or Obama likes all Reagan policies?

Bill Clinton would never lie.......................... I DID NOT HAVE SEXUAL RELATIONS WITH THAT WOMEN.
I TRIED IT, BUT I DID NOT INHALE.

An example of a lie he told about Obama?

Try the claims that Obama hasn't consistently said that we never should have waged war in Iraq. Or the claims that Obama thought Republicans had all the good ideas.

Heck, try Clinton's own claim that he opposed the war. Or Hillary's claim that she didn't think she was voting for a war when she voted for the "Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002".

Or Hillary's claim to 35 years of experience.

Try the finger-wagging "didn't have sexual relations with that woman" schtick.

The Clintons are nasty, dishonest people who will say or do absolutely anything -- anything! -- to get elected. And the only way to make politicians become honest again is to vote against the politicians who aren't honest.

Bill Clinton gave this country some of its best years -- easy to see now that it's in really sorry shape.His approval rating when he left suggests most people were pretty happy with him, and that's with Monica or no Monica -- and for the record, he's the first president ever asked about his sex life -- yet he wasn't the first with a cheating heart by far. I'd lie too. Any sane guy would. As long as there's human blood flowing through a president's veins he's prone to error, but Bill never let anyone down where it counted and outside of his infidelity proved to be a pretty stand-up guy.

Obama's camp started by playing the race card -- they wanted to play dirty, they get dirty. Sorry, but you reap what you sew. Obama has had a target on Hillary and she's remained largely complacent, she can't afford to do it anymore, yet as typical in a male-dominated society she'll be judged no matter what stance she takes. Strong woman? The big 'B' word? Harpie? The labels will be slapped on her no matter what she does.

It's probably better for her campaign if Bill goes on the attack. That's his wife afterall and this is a very unique situation, it's really easy for everyone to sit and judge. How should the ex-president who's married to potentially the next President act? What should he say? He's her husband first and foremost and by my calculations, he owes her a huge debt.

And John Kerry, based on the '04 election that should have been a slam-dunk, is an irrelevant loser. Clearly he has no influence outside the confines of Massachusetts anyway otherwise he'd be President right now. But he couldn't get the job done. He did a miserable job on the campaign trail and he let the democratic party down in a very big way. So on that note, who cares what he says?

And as a final thought...
anything has got to be better than George W. Bush. Go Hill. Go Obama. Go PeeWee Herman, I don't care, just bring on '09.

here it is:

"Obama said the Reagan had all the good ideas" (papraphrased) Billary

he never said good ideas, just that the repubs were the party of ideas.

Bill (in 1992) and Hillary in Brokaws's book Boom said the same thing. check out Bills quotes at http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/01/bill_clinton_credited_reagan_i.html

Clinton lied his way to the presidency...we had enough of his like so we brought back the wrong Bush. Dole, ventura, gore should have been the last few presidents. WE NEED TO EXIT THE MIDDLE EAST. Let Germany, Britain, France deal with it

I wouldn't vote for Obama in a million years. A light weight nothing!

The Clintons deserve our respect and our gratitude for their willingness to continue to serve this nation. In case you have forgotten, when the Clintons left office seven years ago we had a surplus in the US Treasury, we are now in debt going into the trillions of dollars. Do some research before you spread lies around and damn people.

The behavior that the Clintons have been engaged in over this past month has me voting in a place where I never would want to be. I will not vote for Hillary for the decisions made by her, Bill and the campaign rob the American people a chance with someone who really had a chance a changing things for "ALL" Americans. They have made it job number one to bring Obama down. That is not what being a democrat is about. I know so many folks who felt inspired to become and strive to be better American citizens so now we will just have the same old junk. How depressing.

The Clintons know full well that a large part of the population do not have the time nor energy to follow up on their lies and twisting of the truth.

uhhh... Carlos, when Bill Clinton left office (not "the Clintons" as you put it), there was a BUDGET surplus, but the U.S. national DEBT was still in the trillions. The U.S. has been a debtor nation since the early 1980's, and that is unlikely to change any time soon, regardless of who is president. "Do some research before you spread lies..."

Please see the humor in Sen. Kerry. His whole life is a lie. He tried to copy Jack Kennedy like that that be cloned. Obama is a winner. Bill and Hillary are winners.
John Kerry is hilarious. But I'll give him some credit. Remember his chin surgery? He had the "courage to change his profile". His first wife had a couple of hundred million dollars and his second has a billion. Oh yea, he is committed to the great issues of our time, not his own social status. I love Sen. Kerry because he makes me laugh.

Not that I'm condoning the actions of the former President, I don't, but this guy is not so stupid. Bill knows that whoever wins the party nomination will be the next President, period the end. He will keep on doing what he does best. Watch out for him to open his trap and spit out some remark (untruth) directed at the undecided voters that make up there minds as they walk in to a polling booth at key State primaries. He’s the king of political maneuvers and Obama needs all the help he can get to neutralize him.

Go Obama! Go Federal Tax Code replacement! Both would be great assets to all Americans and the American economy! The U.S. economy would flourish!

I'm not so sure the winner of the party nomination will be president, the campaigns have been full of surprises so far. Obama is engaging and charismatic but, sadly, I'm more concerned about who will beat the republican nominee than which democrat is nastiest on the campaign trail. If Obama wins the dem nomination how far will the red states go to keep a black man from becoming president?
