MSNBC host Ronan Farrow is nostalgic for the Clintons. Specifically, he misses their honesty:
“I think they represent a style of honesty that the public craves right now.”
Being professional media analysts here at IHTM, we can read between the lines and ascertain the subtle meaning underlying this statement: MSNBC is smoking some powerful weed, man.

Back in the day I recall a female Clinton worshiping talking head saying how, yeah, sure bill is lying but he does it so eloquently, and then I thought of this;
"Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." - George Washington
And having suffered under an unjust and cruel govenment, most of the Founders knew what they were talking about. That's the reason they wrote the constitution, and the Bill of Rights the way they did. They were in part making sure that the things they had been accused of, forced to do, etc would not flourish here.
Wow, I like that quote. Doesn't sound like GW but I'll take your word for it.
Well I wouldn't say too much about the "honesty" of the Clntons. And while I am pretty sure I was better off under either of the Bush's, I certainly was beter off under CLinton than I am now!
The only thing that this kid would remember about the Clinton years would be Pokémon.
Depends on what you definition of "is" is....
Oh and this lad was 6 when Bill Clinton took the WH. I have fond memories of the 'lively' Nixon/Humphrey discussions me and my fellow 1st graders had around the water fountain.
Damn dude get up off your knees and open your eyes. Clinton was impeached for lying to a federal court, the hildabeast lied her ass off about what she knew and when she knew it about Benghazi.
I swear these libs can not see the liars and thieves that they adore and can not understand why many of us, despise these two and loath quagmire and the wookie.
The Clinton Machine is about to come up to full speed. This tool and his news channel are just cogs in that machine. She's next and these silly mother fuckers running the Rhino party are not going to be able to do a damn thing about it. They (the Clintons) have already picked the rhino they want to run against her and will do everything necessary to ensure he gets the nomination. My prediction is the fat guy from Jersey vs. Hillary in 2016. We all know how this is going to to turn out, don't we?
If so, you will have arguably the lowest GOP voter turn out in history.
But there will be a big turn out, they just won't be able to "find" all the ballots! ;-)
The Democratic machine is already trying to claim Cruz isn't a natural born citizen. The progs are scared to death of him.
Yes and the rhinos are on board with them on the Cruz issue. Even if Cruz did run, the rhinos will run him out of money before they allow the primaries to reach any of the red states, again. Time for a Super Tuesday format primary system!!!!!!!!! Of course the rhinos control that and will make sure it never happened. We're truly screwed.
I don't think Ted Cruz would need their help, he's got us. We can come up with plenty of cash and we'll vote for him. I'm not voting for the 'R' any more, unless I know what the person wearing it really stands for. If the RINO's and the establishment want to play this game again, we'll primary the shit out of them until there's no one standing. If that doesn't work, there's always Plan B.
Good! I hope they all shit themselves!
Already happening.
Too bad the RINOS are doing the progs's work for them by smearing Cruz. Fifth column a$$es that they are.
C²CO or REMF come to mind too.
"Honest Clinton" is an oxymoron.
But, wasn't he more honest than President I didn't Knowbama?
Yes, he was. But not by much.
At least he did a better job of hiding the lies.
No, he's right! The "style of honesty" that the Clintons represented was lying to you in a charming fashion without scuttling the economy on the rocks. And THAT'S what the people crave, idiots that they are. They don't mind being lied to... unless it's costing them money. Then they suddenly get all moral.
Remember: the Clinton administration took a shot at government healthcare (actually, the totally unaccountable first lady did) and then disbanded the panel because they probably had someone in the room who did the arithmetic and ruined it for everyone.
Whereas, Chairman Zero did the math and said, "Perfect! This will bring the country to its knees!"
Spot on!
Nothing like being lied to and then given a reach around. Ahhh, for the good old days, when talk was cheap and politicians were even cheaper...literally! The lying f***s we have in the WH now, are cheap alright, but they charge a lot more and lie even more than the Clintons did. I still think King "0" thinks he's on a mission from god (little 'g,' because Satan is the Lord of this world and to some, a god, but even he knows who GOD really is). It's just that he surrounds himself with rat-f*** liars like King "0," who don't seem to know the difference.
