Bill Clinton Blames G.O.P. and Press for Wife’s Email Woes
The New York Times ^ | 9/26/2015 | Amy Chozick

Former President Bill Clinton blamed Republicans who hope to undercut his wife’s presidential chances and a voracious political news media uninterested in substance for the furor surrounding Hillary Rodham Clinton’s use of a private email account and server while she was secretary of state.

“I have never seen so much expended on so little,” Mr. Clinton said in a taped interview with Fareed Zakaria that is scheduled to be shown Sunday on CNN. The network released excerpts on Saturday afternoon.

“She said she was sorry that her personal email caused all this confusion,” Mr. Clinton said. “And she’d like to give the election back to the American people. I think it will be all right. But it’s obvious what happened.”

Mr. Clinton likened the current inquiries into Mrs. Clinton’s emails to scandals as far back as the Whitewater land deal that plagued his 1992 campaign and his administration.

“This is just something that has been a regular feature of all of our presidential campaigns, except in 2008 for unique reasons,” Mr. Clinton said, without elaborating on why he believed that President Obama had not faced similar Republican-led efforts to derail his candidacy.

“It always happens,” he added. “We’re seeing history repeat itself.”

And so the perpetual victimization of The Clintons continues. The fact of the matter is she lied to the faces of the families of the Benghazi victims. Get rid of her. I don't recall Nixon ever doing this much whining over being "persecuted." At least not publicly.

Nixon cried like a proverbial stuck pig. There was the “I am not a crook speech. And, he famously said, “When the President does it, its not illegal.” And, the Attorney General firings. He was more publicly scared that the wicked witch.

GOOD! I’m glad he said that! I hope to God that he believes it. I hope that Hillary believes it! This is self-delusion and denial, and, once she is publicly vanquished as the phony that she is, they’ll only have each other to be miserable with - and in private quarters where there will only be the harsh truth (or, more than likely, each ALONE!) PERFECT!

Yeah Bill, we know - that's why Trump is breaking records.

Unbelievable that this jackass was president for 8 years and can’t see that his wife broke the law with mishandling classified material. Even the worms will reject him when he croaks.

If Hillary lied about her e-mails and the press and the republicans never reported did she really do anything wrong?

Bill is right in a way.

You really think BJ the “bent one” can’t see what is going on? He knows exactly what is going on. His words are for their supporters and other useful idiots.
How long have you been on FR? Everything done by the ruling class is a “reality show”.

Bill blames the GOP, when it was Valerie who got the ball rolling.
Evidenced by Hillary yelling at Obama to call of the dogs.

So, when did Valerie become a Republican?

Always someone else’s fault. Big surprise.

Why is that pervert so damn popular with women? Explains a lot about why this country is so crapped up.

If her name wasn’t Hillary Clinton she’d be in jail by now.

Yup, the “vast right wing conspiracy” at work again. Them persky right wingers made Hilary Clinton first of all, illegally set up her own private email server to run government business, in someone’s toilet no less, the self same right wingers made Hilary Clinton illegally wipe out government emails from said private server. /sarcasm off
