"As we exercise the right to advocate our views, and as we animate our supporters, we must all assume responsibility for our words and actions before they enter a vast echo chamber and reach those both serious and delirious, connected and unhinged." ~ Former President Clinton in a New York Times op-ed marking the 15th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing.

AND THE JUDICIARY

 

AND THIS DEAD GUY.

In a speech he gave in DC on the upcoming 15th anniversary of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, former President Bill Clinton said that one of its lessons is that words matter.

 

REALLY, BILL? THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS? AND THIS? AND THIS? AND THIS? AND THAT? AND THIS ONE, TOO!

 

EMAIL ME IF YOU CAN.

"You can take your best shot at being your own lawyer, if you want, or you can be a lawyer." ~Federal Judge A. Howard Matz to Killercop

 

 

"But what we learned from Oklahoma City is not that we should gag each other or reduce our passion from the positions we hold -- but that the words we use really do matter, because there's this vast echo chamber and they go across space and they fall on the serious and the delirious alike. They fall on the connected and the unhinged alike. And I am not trying to muzzle anybody.

 

But one of the things that the conservatives have always brought to the table in America is a reminder that no law can replace personal responsibility. And the more power you have and the more influence you have, the more responsibility you have." ~Bill Clinton 2010

"Our form of government, like all human things, is imperfect and flawed; but one of its greatest virtues is its power to resolve questions of the greatest import without violence.

 

An attack on a member of that government—of whatever party or whatever views—is an attack on that principle, in which every American has a stake.” ~The House minority whip's statement: 4:57 PM ET
