More "Bill the Victim."

“I think that they played the race card on me. We now know, from memos from the campaign that they planned to do it along." It's not a lie if you believe it, right, Mr. President? I've grown bored with trying to keep track of all the myriad ways Bill Clinton has continually embarrassed himself in recent months. But, since I'm blogging today and as per his "mugging", former President Clinton whines further about the reaction to his unfortunate Jesse Jackson comparison, citing once again a vast Obama conspiracy and now memos that do not exist. (In his own mind, he probably meant the Amaya Smith memo during the MLK/LBJ uproar, which, of course, had nothing to do with Clinton's idiotic remarks.) The former president also said he couldn't have said anything racist because he has an office in Harlem. Uh, I live in Harlem...I didn't realize that constituted a free pass for us white folk to spout ignorant and dismissive bromides whenever it's politically expedient.

Not realizing the mic was still on, Clinton later scoffed to an aide during the interview, “I don’t think I should take any shit from anybody on that, do you?" Actually, Bill, you really, really should.

Update: Now, in full defiance of the audio, he's denying he said it. "Outside a Pittsburgh campaign event, a reporter asked Clinton what he had meant 'when you said the Obama campaign was playing the race card on you?' Clinton responded: 'When did I say that and to whom did I say that?'" (Can you find the Clintonian distortion? I'm guessing it's "played" versus "was playing," but who knows how the man's mind works?)
