Yesterday the internet was buzzing and twittering all over the former president’s angry response to the #BlackLivesMatter protestors. I have to say, its quite the show.
The #BlackLivesMatter protestors are referring to Bill Clinton’s own record regarding the 1994 crime bill. That bill had multiple layers and if the success of it ever measured up to the intent; we’ll never completely know. They are ALSO referring to Hillary’s “Superpredator” speech she gave in 1996.
“Bring them to heel.” WOWWWW. Fact is, whether she chose her words poorly or not, she meant exactly what she said while trying to sell the public on tougher sentencing guidelines. The #BlackLivesMatter crowd and pretty much everyone else realizes that.
Given the events of yesterday, its understandable that the focus would be on Clinton’s response. However, there are a few folks who’ve pointed something else out that has made this writer take a step back and channel Arsenio Hall.
Steven Hayward at Powerline Blog and Michelle Goldberg at Slate ask essentially the same question.
Does Bill Clinton REALLY want Hillary to win?
