Clinton can't handle pressure from the media. He is used to a fawning press like Larry King. Wallace didn't treat him disrepectful, he asked him a question. This is too much for King Clinton , so he blew a gasket. The nerve of the the press to treat him like they do any other politcal figure.

He had a chance to be the grand statesmen his followers claim he is.
Instead he had a meltdown over a question that is usually put as an accusation almost every day against Dubya. He blew it. There's a fact for you.

The interview was completely inapropriate, IMO. Journalism has lost all credibility. Kudos for Clinton for responding to that point.

If you think that was a description of any one news station, you are dillusional. They're all the same.

And LePaul, you need to stop listening to Rush. If Bill had used different wording, he would have provided quotes to establish exactly how Clinton was only doing it to deter from the scandal. Rush is part of the problem, not a voice to quote as fact.

I'll listen to whomever I please, thank you very much.

Rush just pointed out some facts that show some interesting empirical data. When Clinton lobbed those missiles out, there was unified praise for him attacking terrorists who had attacked our embassies. Clinton's notion that the right wingers were against him at every step simply doesnt hold water.

You can disagree with if Rush all you want. I don't always agree with him either. However he's given detailed info which you can check up on for yourself.

Actually, rush issued some quotes with no context. Stop confusing those with facts.

Congress was too busy with lewinskigate to really do much else of anything. "At least he did something" did not mean they didn't think he did it to defer attention and it does not mean that he did not try to do more to which congress was not receptive. The main sticking point was to free their attention from their current focus and shift it to something else. It did not work.

WTG!... a little late, but WTG!... now let's get back to this pressing lewinski thing is not full support from congress. No further action as congress made it very clear they were "on to him" is not even remotely refuted by a single rush limbaugh quote.

Limbaugh and Moore are two of the same animal. Different audiences, but the exact same mentality in both. Of course, neither will admit that there are actually loyalties that render skewed perspectives, but that's just the way hero worship goes.

Very well...another, non-Rush source saying much the same

Personally I don't think it's enough just to read the transcripts. As pointed out he wasn't a very dignified statesmen when asked questions that should be asked. If you watch the video he blew up. He "blew a gasket". It's not the same as "I can tell he's lying cause his lips where moving" it's as pointed out he took that same grin and stance when he blatently lied to the american people on national TV.

It's not what he lied about it's the fact that he did it in a stone cold mannor on national TV. Then you realize that's how the man communicates and you cannot trust a word he says.

Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter are two of the worst presidents the US has ever elected.

Did you read any of that? I couldn't get past "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."

Did that one make you chuckle? OH! IT'S SO TRUE!!!!

That's the best you can come with and it only supports my argument. That's pretty sad.

Clinton thinks he is too smart for everyone/everyone. That's why he agreed to the interview.

Look, a discussion with you is always an exercise in dealing with your trite insults. I'll pass.

I didn't see how MiniD insulted you.

MiniD does have a problem. He thinks he's smart because he "works with phd's"

That's sad, but I refuse to belittle him for that.

I don't work with "phd's" I work with people.

Actually, if you get down to the meat of the article, past the cheap shot funnies, he does make some valid points Clinton probably doesn't want to hear
