"Time's reporters were taken in, Mr. York said, by old-fashioned spin intended to repair the Clinton administration's badly bruised image while bashing the Republican administration."

Taken in? Or willing co conspirators?

Good stuff, Kattracks. Its always fun watching the Clinton Legacy sink deeper and deeper into the muck.

LOL! I hadn't considered that. Hopefully they scoured that sink in that oval office bathroom. :D
