Bill Clinton launched a vicious attack on Obama's stance on Iraq. The Clenus is sounding more and more like a Republican pit bull everyday.


Speaking at Dartmouth College Monday afternoon, Bill Clinton said: “It is wrong that Senator Obama got to go through 15 debates trumpeting his superior judgment and how he had been against the war in every year, enumerating the years, and never got asked one time — not once, ‘Well, how could you say that when you said in 2004 you didn’t know how you would have voted on the resolution? You said in 2004 there was no difference between you and George Bush on the war. And you took that speech you’re now running on off your Web site in 2004. And there’s no difference in your voting record and Hillary’s ever since,’ ” Mr. Clinton said, according to the New York Sun, which said it transcribed the remarks from a CNN video feed. “Give me a break. This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I’ve ever seen.”
