Bill Clinton says Barack Obama must ‘kiss my ass’ for his support

source: UK Telegraph

The Telegraph has learned that the former president’s rage is still so great that even loyal allies are shocked by his patronizing attitude to Mr Obama, and believe that he risks damaging his own reputation by his intransigence. A senior Democrat who worked for Mr Clinton has revealed that he recently told friends Mr Obama could “kiss my ass” in return for his support. A second source said that the former president has kept his distance because he still does not believe Mr Obama can win the election.

Sad Bill

It has long been known that Mr Clinton is angry at the way his own reputation was tarnished during the primary battle when several of his comments were interpreted as racist. But his lingering fury has shocked his friends. The Democrat told the Telegraph: “He’s been angry for a while. But everyone thought he would get over it. He hasn’t. I’ve spoken to a couple of people who he’s been in contact with and he is mad as hell. “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 “kiss my ass”, 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.”

We think Bill is mad because his status as “first black president” may be in jeopardy.
