Bill Clinton Needs Help Developing His Crush

According to a report in The (London) Telegraph, Bill Clinton told close friends Obama can “kiss my ass” to get his support:
“He’s saying he’s not going to reach out, that Obama has to come to him. One person told me that Bill said Obama would have to quote, ‘kiss my ass,’ close quote, if he wants his support.

“You can’t talk like that about Obama — he’s the nominee of your party, not some house boy you can order around.

“Hillary’s just getting on with it and so should Bill.”
Following Hillary Clinton’s public display of unity with Obama last week (at which Bill Clinton was noticably absent), Bill Clinton and Obama are expected to meet in the coming days. The former president released a statement that he "is obviously committed to doing whatever he can and is asked to do" for Obama.So perhaps Bill Clinton merely was waiting in order to avoid taking the public's focus off the joint appearances by Obama and Hillary.
"Any time that Bill Clinton and Barack Obama speak, it's going to be big news," Terry McAuliffe said. "They wanted this out of the way first. Now that that's over, they will speak. And I'll bet you they speak within the next 24 hours, 48 at the most."
Maybe we can help convince him to show his support more vigorously and with less ambiguity?

Make sure to include your mailing address in any emails you send.

If you'd like to write a letter, you can address it to President Bill Clinton at:

I called today and spoke with a nice staffer. I told him I had been a supporter of Bill and Hillary Clinton for many years: as a voter, a patriot, and a Clinton supporter, I was disappointed by what I read in the news about the former President saying Obama had to "kiss his ass" to get support. I felt it was important enough to call because Clinton's support is essential for the Democrats to take back the country. We can't afford to have John McCain't to get into the White House. Please tell President Clinton we need to stick together!

We need a REAL endorsement from Bill Clinton, not just this very amusing slip-up from the campaign trail in March, where Clinton encouraged voters to vote for the candidate that wants you to think and hope. Sounds like Bill has a little crush on a certain someone...
