I don't care if lots of you don't like BS, I loved Chris Matthews show

[napi21]

tonight, and I will always love Bill! He did some things I didn't like, but he's still a really good guy and always will be.

[RandomThoughts]

1. The show was not about Bill Clinton.

It was about some weird concept of saying he was president of the world, for some weird reason that has nothing to do with Bill Clinton.

I would probably watch a show about Bill Clinton, but that was not the intent or reason for that show.

2. I guess I didn't see it that way. Bill really is loved by many countries of the world.

No that doesn't make him "president of the world", but he certainly is the most popular ex-president of any country that I know of. It still was a good show and elaborated on the many things he's done since leaving office and they were all good for mostly poor people.

5. Bill is pretty darn great but we have to give credit to Pres. Jimmie Carter!!!!!

He's really Bill's role model. Jimmie was the first Ex Pres to really be a mensch out in the world!!!

6. Do you see why that is wrong.

By saying he was president of the world, it was an insult, since it is a station that is above his place, and makes it look like hyping him up. If they had said it was about Bill Clinton and the causes he worked for, some might actually think of him as some leading world figure.

But by saying it, it does the opposite. Reverse humility causes less respect in many people.

Thats why I think that was a tanking move to draw agro.

Although if it was done in Colbert Style, it would have been totally awesome!

11. Ask the Haitians about their rice industry

and ask the rest of the Caribbean how he destroyed the ACP/EC banana treaties for American banana corporations.
