Why Did The Mayor Of Atlanta Accuse Bill Clinton Of Racism In Church?

On MLK Jr. day, the mayor of Atlanta, Shirley Franklin, made a pointed reference to Bill Clinton, who was sitting in the front row, claiming that Barack Obama was not some “fairy tale” candidate. Obviously, she was trying to make Bill Clinton look bad by twisting his words and making it a racial issue. We all know Clinton used the phrase “fairy tale” to describe Obama’s supposed continued opposition to the war, not his bid to be the first Black President of the USA. Why was the mayor bringing the issue of race up yet again by accusing Bill Clinton of racism?

    Who cares? The race card is the only one those types have to play with. It’s how they are able to make vast amounts of money without having to actually work.
    It really does get tiresome to hear the same garbage over and over and over…

    When logic fails accuse some one of racism- you have got to keep slinging sh*t and just see what sticks.

    Bill’s got a big mouth and insulted Obama
    what’s amazing is that the democrats can basically campaign in these various churches but if a GOP candidate even came close to what the dems are doing they would be bar’b'qed! None of this should happen in church!

    She said history is to be made by a woman becoming President . Everyone thought she was going to say African American. Listen before you speak falsehoods.

    She had the courage to say it to his face, for that she deserves kudos. This is more than the spineless guppy, Slick Willie is capable of doing !

    Truly attentive and interested in what others were saying. I have read many excuses but really there is none.
