"So where did that poise go as Mr. Wallace asked a thoroughly
mannerly question about the Clinton anti-terror record? The
answer is revealed in the first words out of his presidential
mouth. 'First I want to talk about the context in which this
arises. I'm being asked this on the Fox Network.' Huh? How in
the world does that matter? Is there something otherworldly
about fielding a question from someone who might not share your
politics? Ask Ronald Reagan or either President Bush about any
interview conducted over the years by CNN, ABC, CBS or NBC, to say
nothing of the agenda-setting major newspapers. Can you imagine
a Republican president angrily obsessing about the questioner
to the questioner's face before attempting an answer?"

THE BIG LIE
"At least I tried [to get Osama bin Laden]. That's the difference
in me and some, including all the right-wingers who are attacking
me now. They ridiculed me for trying. They had eight months to
try. They did not try. I tried. So I tried and failed."
---Bill Clinton, the Great Prevaricator, responding to Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday"
