I wrote a post today on North Texas Liberal about Bill Clinton. More specifically, it's a rant about Democrats trashing the former president.
It really irks me that Democrats are so willing to throw Clinton under the bus, especially considering that he's the only Democratic president we've had since the 1970s (not counting Obama, obviously). We experienced peace and prosperity under his administration.
If you don't like his wife, just say it. If you are still pissed about his extracurricular activity, well... you need to move on. With the way some Democrats go on, you'd think he was a Bush Republican.
Clinton was a good president. Let's stop trashing his legacy.

It began during the Democratic primary, when detractors began accusing former President Bill Clinton of being a racist.
Since then, people have blamed Clinton for sinking his wife Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential ambitions. People, especially the pundits, have been chattering since before the New York senator even conceded about the former president's role on the campaign trail.
After his wife's concession and endorsement of Barack Obama for president, they continued to denigrate Bill Clinton by saying that he wasn't fully on board, he wasn't doing what was asked of him by the Obama campaign, that he didn't really want Obama to be elected, and that he and Hillary would likely vote for John McCain so she could run for president again in four years.
Now, as reports abound that Hillary has been offered the secretary of state position in the incoming Obama administration, the networks can't stop discussing whether or not Bill will cost her the cabinet post.
