Former President Bill Clinton told an audience that POWs often suffer "anger" long after the incident - which some took as a swipe at Vietnam vet and presumptive GOP presidential nominee John McCain.

Clinton made the remarks during a speech at the Aspen Ideas Festival on Saturday in Colorado, where he described former South African President Nelson Mandela's forgiveness of his captors.

According to The Atlantic, Clinton said, "If you know anybody who was a POW for any length of time, you will see you go along for months or maybe even years and then something will happen and it will trigger all those bad dreams and it will come back."

McCain spent more than five years in captivity.

And Clinton is SUCH an expert in such matters! Well, I guess he knows why we are mad at him after eight years of captivity!

And, we expecting what from the Kind of Sleaze?

This seems to be a pattern for Clinton as of late. He's been taking a lot of cheap shots at the opponents. In the primary it was Obama and now in the general it's McCain. It's certainly not very becoming of him.
