Chris Wallace (certainly not Willam):
"You know, Bill. You are quite an attractive fellow."

Former president Bill Clinton angrily defended his administration's counterterrorism record during a Fox News interview to be aired today, while accusing "President Bush's neocons" and other Republicans of ignoring Osama bin Laden until the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Clinton had planned to discuss his climate change initiative during his appearance on "Fox News Sunday," but he turned combative after host Chris Wallace asked why he hadn't "put bin Laden and al-Qaeda out of business." Clinton shot back that "all the conservative Republicans" who now criticize him for inattention to bin Laden used to criticize him for over-attention to bin Laden.Clinton said he authorized the CIA to kill bin Laden, and even "contracted with people to kill him." He also said he had a plan to attack Afghanistan, overthrow the Taliban and hunt for bin Laden after the attack on the USS Cole, but the CIA and FBI refused to certify that bin Laden was responsible, and Uzbekistan refused to allow the United States to set up a base.
By contrast, Clinton said the Bush administration's neoconservatives "had no meetings on bin Laden for nine months," believing he had been "too obsessed with bin Laden."

Clinton : There is not a living soul in the world who thought Osama bin Laden had anything to do with Black Hawk down or was paying any attention to it, or even knew al-Qaeda was a going concern in October '93.
Wallace : I understand.
Clinton : No, no, wait. Don't tell me that -- you asked why didn't I do more to bin Laden, there was not a living soul, all the people who now criticize me wanted to leave the next day. You brought this up, so you get an answer. But you -- secondly

ROFL!!
I don't recall ever having a concern over whether this boobish miscreant paid too much attention to Bin whats-his-face. Do you? Please find an example of Republicans bitching because Billy was paying too much attention to national security issues.
Wallace : I understand."
Seems to me Wallace didn't call him out on this, instead he UNDERSTOOD! Huh?? Tough interview, I don't think so! It sounds like Chris wiped the floor with bubba in this interview, but in reality Wallace is another idiot who's eyes get all glossed over when bubba or Hitlery are in their presence! I have a feeling the WHOLE interview is a mini love fest where bubba gets his way!
Who's the bigger pussy????? Wallace or Clinton............
...............You got that little smirk on your face and you think you're so clever, but I had responsibility for trying to protect this country. I tried and I failed to get bin Laden. I regret it, but I did try and I did everything I thought I responsibly could."
I know I am going to ask the "obvious" question here...but hey, someone has to:
What if President Bush reacted even HALF as crazy mad, as Clinton is....when he has gotten interviewed by say,..oh, Brian Williams!!
That interview Brian did with President Bush in the last few weeks was 10 times harder on him personally, than anything that Chris asked/said to Clinton.
We have the videos to compare, ....class vs. gutter snipe
Because he is!!!
If you dispute his 'facts' you are going to have hell to pay! If people don't see what a mean, hateful, lunatic he is they never will.
What a pathetic outburst from a former President of the United States. That is what I really call unhinged.
Al Queda grew.

Ding, ding, ding!!
The winner!!!
Can you imagine a FORMER IMPEACHED President about to come unglued from his chair pointing his finger in your face during an interview?! lol! Chris Wallace was probably a little frightened by it all.
This is the kind of thing people who have had an encounter with the IMPEACHED one says he acts. He just proved them right!
Anyone who doesn't believe Juanita after this is also clueless! I guarantee you that he did beat her up! He proved that he is capable of more than that!
He doesn't look too healthy.....wonder if he takes high blood pressure meds.....
YOU FAILED BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO "BUSY"!!! You were too busy trying to get reelected and getting blow jobs!
Every Dem in the House and Senate would be calling for the men in white coats to haul the President away.
Chris Wallace got where he is because his dad is mike Wallace.
Snorting blow doesn't help that either...
I don't mean this as a defense of Clinton or criticism of Bush, but in all fairness, what did Bush do regarding Bin Laden in his first 8 months. Granted a new administration needs time to get set up and it would be unrealistic to see them make major moves in the terrorist issue that was somewhat below the surface at the time. However, if we find what Clinton did inadequate can we defend what Bush did not do?
