More on Clinton's YEARGH! moment
Chris Wallace is commenting on Fox News that Clinton remained angry throughout the interview and threatened to fire anyone who ever put him in that kind of position again. Wallace said that Clinton's handler was poking the producer in the arm throughout the exchange saying "end this interview now

sure, it wasn't exactly a soft-ball. it was more of a medium-ball.
but, it gave him an opportunity to explain his version, and back up his stories, to a "hostile audience" without interruption.
it looked to me like wallace really expected a 2-3 minute conversation about the major points, let clinton have his say, and move into the meat of the conversation - the conservation stuff.
clinton blew it by taking ALL of his time fighting with someone who was trying to give him his say.

However, his making a military decision based on whether or not the GOP was haranguing him is an excuse, and excuses are not acceptable for a leader of the free world. Regardless of whether what he did worked or not, as the president of the United States he was responsible for everything that happened on his watch. Not everything was within his control, and hindsight is 20/20, but whining and finger pointing should be beneath a former US president.

really, that's pretty sad.
it give more fuel to the fire that i truly believe liberalism is a degenerative mental disorder.
it's hard to see clinton losing it, even for me - who had little respect for him to begin with.

LMAO! So true. I had no respect for the skunk to begin with, and didn't think it was possible for him to sink any lower than he already had. Wow.

Couldn't agree with you more. That's why we have to also hold Bush accountable for the Iraq WMD fiasco, as well as those in congress (Dems and Reps) who went along with it.
If a CEO made a disasterous decision that screwed his company, and he explained it to the board of directors and shareholders as "bad data", he'd be out on his ass.
Lets hear it for some accountablility!

Clinton's had five years to perfect his message about what he did while in office. I find it revealing that he still doesn't have his story down.
Things like Sandy Berger's theft and destruction of key documents relating to 9-11 lead me to believe that there is more to this story and Cliton's greatest fear is that those details will be revealed.

you'll notice he shifted a little uncomfortably, but never flinched. and he smiled, and kept pressing clinton back towards the question, but never looked angry or riled.
wallace remained cool, in effect he kept his head when all others around him were losing theirs.
in my book, that means he "won" ... but he didn't intend to. he just wanted a conversation on a burning topic.

It is sad that he would be serving multiple jail sentences if he were a Republican. Democrats always get a pass on that.
Like the 400 FBI files that went "missing" during the Clinton administration.
Hmmm...what was that about a "police state" administration?
