Bill Clinton Again Uses Hurricane Sandy in Anti-GOP Political Speech

Oct. 30, 2012 4:18pm Mytheos Holt

When Hurricane Sandy made landfall, one constant refrain from both sides of the political spectrum was the persistent warning not to “politicize” the disaster. And apparently, having been burned over their initial reaction to the attacks in Libya, the Romney campaign took this warning to heart. Indeed, even Romney surrogate Chris Christie has praised the president’s response to the hurricane and announced his lack of interest in the partisan politics of the situation.

The same apparently cannot be said for those on the Left. First, there was today’s attack by the New York Times on Mitt Romney for allegedly wanting to leave poor east coasters to suffer and die without FEMA. And now, perhaps the Obama campaign’s most valuable player, Bill Clinton, has used the hurricane as an excuse to slam Romney for mocking President Obama’s determination to lower the sea levels. (He used the hurricane earlier this week in a speech about a local election.)

“In the first debate, the triumph of the ‘moderate’ Mitt Romney, do you remember what he did?” Clinton asked acidly. “He ridiculed the president. He ridiculed the president for his efforts to fight global warming in economically beneficial ways. He said, ‘Oh you’re going to turn back the seas.’ In my part of America, we would like it if someone could have done that yesterday.”

Watch Clinton’s crass attempt to score a political hit below:

Someone needs to run an ad that speaks to the truth about bill clinton and his disgraceful life.

Impeached.
Disbarred.
Lied to a Federal Judge.
Disgraced the Oval Office.
Blue Dress.
Cheated on Hillary – serial abuser.
BJ from an intern – maybe more – if I did that it would be sexual harassment – bill does that and he is a democrat hero…
Signed onto a Republican Plan to balance the budget after vetoing previous attempts.
Had the shot on Bin Laden and failed to act – set the US up for 9/11.
Bill (+ Les Aspin) REMOVED certain assets from Somalia leading to Blackhawk Down tragedy.
Disgraceful – caught at Ron Brown’s funeral – smiling and laughing – then saw the camera quickly and put his head down and tried to shed a tear.

If global warming is real and oceans will rise……

Why did Al Gore spend almost $9M on an oceanfront property?

Maybe Al knows he’s lying… his choice of a location for his home certainly supports it.

  wanting to dismantle FEMA is not the same as wanting people to die. FEMA has repeatedly failed in the past. It is not cost effective. Better to scrape it and find other ways to handle emergencies. Every state has a disaster planning office. Other federal agencies are capable of coordinating relief efforts with those agencies, or to deal with multi-state disasters. So stating a fact is not bad. Claiming that the fact is part of actively, willfully harming others, is bad. And cheap. Just what i’d expect from this administration and the puppet they are using.

  Mitt Romney wants the States to keep more of their disaster relief FUNDS in their respective States, instead of sending the money to the Feds, only to have the Feds send it back to the States when needed.

  You’re getting more unhinged with each post GASBAG.
  I know what it is sweetie…you know Obama’s going to lose the election. The hopenchange you lefties were in ecstacies over has turned out to be nothing but an ineffectual do-nothing, an empty chair.
  
  And you know how it all happened don’t you petal? Obama spent millions of dollars on ads trying to portray Romney as a cold-blooded “one percenter” who had no empathy for “the folks” (I thought I’d use Obama’s favourite euphemism). The complicit media did all it could to help you. But something happened didn’t it tulip? That’s right…that first debate happened..and all those millions of dollars spent on “killing Romney” went to waste when the American people got to see Mitt Romney for themselves without your “embellishments”. It turned out he’s got a great grasp on economics, is intelligent..and contrary to Obama, Axelrod, Plouffe and Cutter’s insistance..he’s actually quite likable and in touch with the plight of the country. That’s when it all went horribly wrong for you didnt’ it GASBAG?
  
  So as Romney’s momentum gains strength your keepers decide you should go with “liar, liar, pants on fire” as a campaign strategy..just as you’ve been donig here at the Blaze like a good little party soldier. You’re desperate aren’t you GASBAG? You can see Obama’s going to lose and you can’t face it, you know it and you see it but you can’t accept it. By all means..run Biden and Hillary

  @ DIANE TX …don’t bother trying to enlighten this sad soul with FACTS. OF COURSE this should be run in the STATES by the GOVERNORS who know where the $ needs to be sent. IT DOES NOT NEED a huge FEDERAL money-sucking entity that over pays/over hires/duplicates services. FEDS for highways, Ports, Airports etc. But why spend unnecessary money for some dumbkoff in DC to ride a desk for couple of hundred thousand to be told by a GOVERNOR who is at the site who now (the way it’s set up) has to call DC. BUT DIANE: Don’t expect this nasty person to be able to

Now we know why Fox News never broadcast it as they had originally planned to. This piece was pulled.
*I encourage you to please send this to everyone on your email list ASAP.*
*Remember all the notices we kept getting to watch Fox News on Sunday at 9PM? What Happened?*
*This is the clip that got pulled due to pressure from the Administration.*
Obama Puts Heat on Fox News to Prevent Sean Hannity from airing this piece.
*This is a video that Sean Hannity of FOX News has been trying to show that we are told has consistently been blocked by the Obama Administration for several weeks. It was a matter of time until the internet picked it up.*
*Watch it now before it gets pulled from the internet!*

Remember category-5 Katrina that ERASED much of the Mississippi coast… and miles inland. No debris to clean up because everything was wiped clean. But, we only heard about New Orleans. Hurricanes happen and NY/NJ got a category-1. It could have been worse. Clean it up!

Global Warming is an unravelling hoax, Sea levels have been SLOWLY rising for a very long time, and it has nothing to do with Global Warming. If sea levels had miraculousl been returned to levels of 100 years ago, it would not have made any difference at all. The left is displaying its ignorance by slavishly adhering to this hoax when there is absulutely no scientific evidence to support it.

  Really GASBAG? Let’s take Algore’s “inconvenient” Maldives for an example of the global warming scam. The Maldives is demanding (through the UN of course) billions of dollars in reparations because AGW is making it “sink” through “CO2″ given off by industrialized nations like the U.S. I’m sure you’d leap at the opportunity to oblige the island nation wouldn’t you GASBAG? I mean..AGW is real right?
  
  Not so fast tulip….
  
  The Maldives are flat atolls, composed of coral. Tourism was introduced to Maldives in 1972 with the opening of the kushy Kurumba Village Resort. Today there are 87 beach resorts scattered on three islands. Tourism is the largest industry in the Maldives and the primary construction material used to build the large resorts is..wait for it GASBAG…locally mined coral. Digging up the local coral to build swanky hotels and conference centers is as stupid as drilling holes in a lifeboat. The mining has severely compromised the atolls, creating the impression that the islands are sinking, when in fact they’re being dug up. The problem the Maldives has is engineering idiocy… not a rising sea.
  
  See…The Maldives complaints of global warming are a shake-down operation GASBAG. The likes of which would make a Chicago community organizer proud. Can I say “Chicago” without sounding racist sweetie?
  
  Algore featured the Maldives on his “Inconvenient truth”..he conveniently left out the facts though.
