He explained that he thinks the U.S. has "one remaining bigotry," of people refusing to talk to those who disagree with them. Clinton added that he didn't like it when protesters interrupted but didn't stop to listen, but acknowledged that he was guilty of the same thing when he responded to protesters at a Philadelphia campaign event on Thursday.

The new spin on the defense of Super Predator comments...

One remaining bigotry? Reaaaally. There is still plenty of sexism, racism, and homophobia going around. Every gay pride parade I go to we have Christians hogging up a prominent corner of Peachtree St. and 10th St. here in Atlanta. How Obtuse!

1. Oh, implying that the BLM protestors are bigoted is sure to go over well.

2. He needs to go away....

[dr60omg]

3. Wow that spin and triangulation and game playing never stops

It is an absurdity. I don't get how anyone can be so deaf to what is going on around them

4. Yeah, that's the one remaining bigotry in this country Bill

Apparently he hasn't been watching the Trump and Cruz campaigns.

Dig that hole deeper Bill.

9. O.M.G.... What the hell is wrong with that guy... That is some rich material right there.

Messed up. Oh my.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

11. Clinton suggests BLM is bigoted. That should help smooth things over.

Dunce.

[smiley]

12. This has to be on purpose....

to take the attention off of Hillary for her continual flaps and recent losses. Has he really become this politically stupid?

[sadoldgirl]

13. Oh my, he is willing to make his blunder worse.

[jfern]

14. So if someone makes a racist or sexist or homophobic or so on comment to someone

they aren't being bigoted because they aren't refusing to talk to that person. Bill's totally lost it.

16. He didn't quit when he should have yesterday and now

he is still going.

ONE bigotry ?!

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

18. Well I view it even worse...

He is suggesting if you don't listen to the bigots then you are yourself a bigot too...

[GreatGazoo]

20. I hear you. That is a version of the standard Clinton defense: Plead guilty but say everyone does it

[Cheese Sandwich]

17. He's very out of touch.

[Warren DeMontague]

19. No, it's more like people ignoring unpleasant truths, like the fact that the drug war is a failure.

That's "Failure" with an "F"

21. Sometimes I wonder if he's trying to sabotage his wife.

He's not dumb, so it's hard to believe that he would make mistakes like these.
