Clinton Claims Bush Plagiarized '98 Speech

(2004-08-11) -- Former President Bill Clinton today charged the Bush administration with "plagiarism of ideas" and offered as evidence a 1998 speech Mr. Clinton made to explain his order to bomb Iraq.

"If you read the text of my speech, you'll see that President Bush lifted practically all of my reasons for attacking Iraq and used them as his own," said Mr. Clinton. "I was the one who said Saddam Hussein must be stopped before he used chemical, biological and nuclear weapons. If you read the papers today, you might think that Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld just made that up out of whole cloth."

Actually the joke is almost 40 years old and was first told about Goldwater vs. Johnson. (Perhaps it goes back even further.) Naturally Carville changed the litany and added the false statement about Gore "winning". If you want to call that wit, so be it.

No, he didn't. He had to wait for the stock market to tank, millions of jobs to be lost and the military to become overstretched first. So he's only had about 2.5 years.

Well, since Bush is the first president since Herbert Hoover to see the number of jobs decline on his watch, it must go back more than 40 years if it's not new.
