Bill Clinton's outburst on Fox News was something of a public service, launching a debate about the antiterror policies of his administration. This is important because every George W. Bush policy that arouses the ire of Democrats--the Patriot Act, extraordinary rendition, detention without trial, pre-emptive war--is a departure from his predecessor. Where policies overlap--air attacks on infrastructure, secret presidential orders to kill terrorists, intelligence sharing with allies, freezing bank accounts, using police to arrest terror suspects--there is little friction. The question, then, is whether America should return to Mr. Clinton's policies or soldier on with Mr. Bush's.

Ann Coulter was on Hannity and She said that Clinton lied over 6 times in that Interview.
He is a shamless Scumbag.
He should be getting a nobel peace Prize any day now.
good post
LOL......sad but true.
In the Wall Street Journal...very interesting.
BTTT
He claimed he "authorized" Bin Laden's assassination, but Miniter informs us: "The first hurdle was cleared in the spring of 1998. In the middle of "Monica-gate," Clinton signed a secret memorandum of notification — informally called a "finding" — that explicitly allowed the CIA and other U.S. armed forces to take actions that might lead to bin Laden's death. Before the finding was signed, the military and the CIA were supposed to avoid any action that might, conceivably, result in the death of bin Laden or other targeted persons. Unfortunately, the finding was not a death warrant. Clinton's order did not overturn a long-standing ban on political assassinations. The legal distinction was Clintonesque: Bin Laden could be killed accidentally, but not on purpose. So, a covert team could accidentally shoot bin Laden in the crossfire, but not aim at him. At least inside America's increasingly rule-laden intelligence services, this was seen as a major bureaucratic step forward. Operatives no longer had to avoid actions that might set off a chain of events that might possibly result in bin Laden's death. If bin Laden was killed, the covert team would have little to fear from military or Justice Department lawyers. Ordinarily, if a covert operation turned lethal, a federal criminal investigation could be launched."
"Ann Coulter was on Hannity and She said that Clinton lied over 6 times in that Interview."
I believe she's very right. The problem with Billy Bob Clintoon is thathe doesn't live in the same world we do. So in his mind he's right, living in Never Never Land.
What Clinton was really focused on istead of al Qaeda & it wasn't just Monica:

I recommend that EVERYONE read Miniter's book "Losing Bin Laden", which is an excellent, excellent read on the subject. This man IS one of the experts on this topic. Thanks for posting this!

I had forgotten this. (BTW, I stink at linking, so you have to cut and paste, sorry!)
Thank you for the link/info. (I'd wondered if it was another case of a McCain grandstanding trick. Guess not.) ;)
Thanks for the ping, CCF!
Julia Gorin is always right on about this kind of thing. I am just surprised that Ann Coulter has never gone after Democrats about their failed Balkan policies -- or even more importantly, gone after why Clinton was fixated on Milosevic (who while not necessarily a good guy, was no threat to us) when he should have been focused on bin Laden & al Qaeda who were an obvious threat. It's not like Ann is shy!
