Re: Obama: Bill Clinton is a bald-faced liar

It is a shame that Obama praised Ronald Reagan but lumped Bill Clinton with Richard Nixon: "I mean, I think Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that, you know, Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not."
Bill Clinton's trajectory was up, bringing us real peace and prosperity.
Obama's trajectory is the opposite, bringing this once great country to its knee.

And the context is... these are comments made in the heat of the race for the Democratic nomination. From the same link:
"The context, on page 199 of the book, is the run-up to the Nevada caucuses, and Bill Clinton's suggestion that Obama had said "Republicans have had all the good ideas," a stretch of Obama's discussion of the GOP victory in the war of ideas and his modest view of Bill Clinton's accomplishments."
Sorry to rain on your parade.
