Bill Clinton, Bin Laden, and Hysterical Revisions

Last week, former president Bill Clinton took some time out of his busy dating schedule to have a not so friendly chat with Chris Wallace of Fox News Sunday. Given his rabidity, Mr. Clinton might consider taking a few miligrams of Valium the next time he allows himself to face “fair and balanced” questions, assuming once wasn’t enough that is.

This wasn’t Mr. Clinton’s finest hour. In fact, it could be by far the worst performance of his career, which is saying a lot given that his acting skills were typically much more apparent than his policy-making acumen when he was in office.

From the onset, Mr. Clinton seemed ill at ease. This is understandable, as he didn’t see the normally comforting initials of the “Clinton News Network” proudly displayed on the video cameras in front of him. But, this doesn’t absolve him of appearing before the American people as if he were Norman Bates just questioned about his mother.

A great article - setting the record straight for the lunatic left wing fringe.

This is great. The Donks are going to spend the next seven weeks circling the wagons in order to protect Bill Clinton's tarnished legacy, instead of concentrating on the mid-term elections.

The only people who give a damn about Bill Clinton are Clintonistas. The rest of us just wish he would go away.

I saw Billious Clinton on FNS. Not his finest hour in my opinion. He wagged the "Monica Lewinski finger" in Chris's face.

I assessed the character of Mr. Clinton when I first saw him. Don't want to pat myself on the back here, but it appears that my initial assessment was right on.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"Furthermore, twelve months later, even though he spoke for almost an hour and a half during his final State of the Union address on January 27, 2000, according to a Nexis-Lexis search, the name Osama bin Laden was never mentioned. This appears almost impossible to believe given revelations that very morning about a connection between the individual apprehended trying to cross the Canadian border with explosives in December and bin Laden"

This is a good one. Big bump

[NRA1995]

At the time, the former president was knee-deep in the Monica Lewinsky scandal

I think that would be Monica Lewinsky who was knee-deep in something.....

Rush is right once again, Losers & Failures get the greatest prestige among Liberals.

Have you seen the comments on youtube beneath the video clip?

Here is my favorite:

"F#@% FAUX NEWS... and most importantly, F@#% conseervatives... your way of life is dying.. we control the universities, the media, and the political climate... Soon, we will take it all. So head on back to dixie and die, pricks."

[Always Right]

I am still trying to figure out why Clinton thought it was a hostile question. If you want to see a load question, just watch the liberals ask Bush questions. Helen Thomas lectures Bush on how horrible his policies are before even hinting at a question. Chris Wallace asked a very straight forward question that Clinton could have easily answered and put a positive spin on it. Clinton obviously does not have the staff he once had to keep him in line.

I never had sex with Osama bin Laden, not once, never!

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Bill Clinton did everything possible to fight terrorism. But, he is a very modest man. In fact, he is so modest that after he left office, he commissioned one of his top deputies, a fellow named Sandy Burglar, to remove some Top Secret documents relating to Clinton's aggressive tactics versus bin Laden. To prevent anyone from boasting about (and thus embarrassing) the former Chief Executive, Burglar did his bidding and removed and destroyed all documents which validate the great Freedom Fighter's claims, and would have served to protect his Legacy, were he not so self-effacing.

Additionally, Burglar removed documents that indicate that he was not obsessed with sex (or, more precisely, oral gratification, since, technically, that is NOT sex.) These documents clearly enumerate that there were, in fact, women in the White House from whom he did not request fellatio. These women include, but are not limited to Madeline Albright, Janet Reno, and Hillary Clinton. Wait--let me rephrase that. These women were limited to Madeline Albright, Janet Reno, and Hillary Clinton.

You are right. Suddenly the mid-term elections mean NOTHING to clinton. The world stopped for him on the day Chris Wallace asked *the question*. And now nothing matters except that interview. The dems. might as well forget campaigning. Saving clinton's legacy has just become priority ONE. Whether they like it or not. lol

[roses of sharon]

Clinton was just trying to take the Dem's hero Hugo off the front page!

[Nathan Zachary]

What I found funny is when Clinton bugged his eyes out, pointed and jabbed his finger at wallace and called his a right wing conservative. wallace shrunk back with a look of shock on his face, as if he expected Clinton to hit him. It's too bad Wallace didn't have more guts and and throw some facts back into Clintons face, such as quotes from Yahia Hussien Ba-viker, Sudan's Mukhabarat deputy chief, and Mansoor Ijaz. That might have put Clinton over the edge.

My guess is that the path to 9/11 mini-series has taken it's toll on ol Bubba. Maybe more than we know. It's at least entirely possible that the film was "so real" for Bubba that he felt he needed to reinvent history one more time.

That being said never take your eye off the ball. And the ball right now is the 06 elections which bubba was careful not to bring up. Yet there is a lot a stake for the rats. So it now becomes our job to figure out how yesterdays BC/BS applies to the upcoming elections even if it's only theme and diversion, a basic clintonista tactic.

"1. Clinton tried to socialize health care;

2. Clinton presided over a phony Internet bubble;

3. (i),(a) Clinton spurned Sudan when it offered him Osama bin Laden on a silver platter, e.g. Jennifer Loven, "Clinton says answer to terrorism is support of Current Administration," (Bush) Associated Press, October 10, 2001.

(b) ("Clinton also confirmed a failed U.S. attempt in 1996 (Clinton's) to have Osama bin Laden arrested in Sudan and placed in Saudi Arabian custody and a CIA-sponsored plan to have Pakistani commandos hunt him down in 1999, abandoned after military coup there.

(c) Bin Laden is the prime suspect in last month's terrorist attack in New York and Washington" (9/11/2001))

(ii)Michael Ellison, "Attack on Afghaniston," The Guardian (London), October 11, 2001. ("Mr. Clinton confirmed in a speech to executives at the Kennedy Centre in Washington DC that the U.S. had failed in 1996 to have Bin Laden arrested in Sudan and that a CIA-sponsored initiative to have Pakistani commandos snare him three years later was abandoned because of a military coup in that country. (Pakistan) A U.S. cruise missile attack on Bin Laden training camps in Afghanistan in 1998 missed their main target.");

4. (Clinton) Sold a burial plot in Arlington cementary to a campaign contributor;

5. (Clinton)Engaged in sex romps in the Oval Office (Lied about relationship to THAT woman aka Monica Lewinsky);

6. (Clinton)Credibly accused of rape (Juanita Broaddrick);

7. (Clinton)obstructed justice;

8. (Clinton) had his law license suspended and got himself permanently disbarred from the U.S. Supreme Court;

9. (Clinton) pardoned a lot of sleazy crooks in return for political donations on his way out of office;

BUT we're told, he was terrific on crime!! ((i), took credit for Republican Rudy Giuliani's magnificent reduction in crime in NYC; (ii) and Clinton's Justice Department repeatedly investigated New York City police for alleged civil rights violations -- investigations that became suspiciously frequent about the time it appeared that Clinton's wife (Shrillary) would be running against Giuliani for Senate...(hmmmm))" Godless: The Church of Liberalism, Ann Coulter, Crown Forum (June 6, 2006), Chapter 2, pp 48, 49, Notes: 39: pp 287.

Chapter One will knock your socks off...deals with the way liberal education teaches sex education (fisting..oh my gosh) in public schools. "Chelmsford Massachusetts parents protested. They were basically told by the courts to "back off." They and their children have NO right to privacy when it comes to sex education in public school." (my interpretation)

Gotta love that Ann Coulter. She's a pistol when it comes to telling the truth. Her books are carefully researched. She cites everything. (real proof that the rabid elves (liberals, Democrats) are always up to no good)

Go here for shirt

I am in no way affiliated with the shirt sellers or manufacturers. Just think it's fitting...chuckle !!!

[sweet_diane]

I can't believe the Dems are applauding Clinton for "smacking down" Chris and Fox News.

[Former Dodger]

Thanks for posting this, Teddy...

I think this was the first FNS that I couldn't even get angry at Juan Williams...Clinton's meltdown was such a thing of beauty!

[teddyballgame]

Talk about hitting a nerve! As the saying goes..the truth hurts. You can spin all you want Bubba, history will not be kind.

[sweet_diane]

""F#@% FAUX NEWS... and most importantly, F@#% conseervatives... your way of life is dying.. we control the universities, the media, and the political climate... Soon, we will take it all. So head on back to dixie and die, pricks."

ahhhh...the genius of liberalism.

rofl...pitiful soul.

"...[Clinton] appearing before the American people as if he were Norman Bates just questioned about his mother. On the other hand, maybe asking the former president anything of consequence these days will elicit such volatility..."
