Bill's gone batshit crazy. Read his last quote, he doesn't even make sense anymore.
Man, how the mighty have fallen....
Bill: Hillary Hearts Outer Space
HOUSTON, TX -- Houston, we have a contrast.
Bill Clinton is fond of enumerating the differences of policy opinion between Hillary Clinton and her rival, often listing off their areas of disagreement on health care and trade. But residents of Space City USA were treated to a new "huge difference" during one of the former president's campaign stops on a day-long blitz here today.
"Hillary has always supported the manned space program just as I did when I was president," he told a crowd of over 250 who gathered in a picturesque neighborhood park in a Houston suburb today. "Her opponent says we should downgrade man space travel and upgrade robotic travel."
The issue of space industry employment is key in a town home to NASA's largest R&D facility. According to the Greater Houston Partnership, the Johnson Space Center employs 3000 federal workers and as many as 14000 contracted employees.
"There are 16,000 jobs and a lot of Americans' futures riding on this centered here in Houston," said Clinton today. "You have to make a decision whether you care about this."
Another contrast Clinton continued to push in his remarks today centers around a new Obama ad airing in Texas markets. "There's a one minute ad on in Texas telling you how terrible things were in the nineties," he said, "Well, I think we did pretty well in the 1990s."
"If you believe things were bad in the nineties, just as bad as in this decade," noted the former president, "and you believe everybody should be eliminated from being considered for president if they did anything good, I think you should vote for him."
But, he added, if not -- Hillary's your candidate.
