Somehow, the inclusion of "Clinton" and "truth" in the same sentence should be absolute proof that fiction will rule the day.

 

Did anyone see Keith Olbermann interviewing Clinton on MSNBC last night? I watched part of it but changed the channel before Keith actually kissed Clinton's posterior.

Saw that.....great interview.....two very intelligent men laying out the facts without all the right wing propaganda. Great to see someone not running for office interviewed for a change.

Funny how when you read this part of the interview that will appear tomorrow, then actually read the 9/11 Commission report, which by the way Bush and his people did not want, that it all is the same. Several, several other parts to this interview that are great, and how Clinton shows and proves what really happened. I have a friend who is very involved with the republican party who was just like the people Clinton was talking about in this part of the interview, first he said Clinton was too worried about Bin Laden, then when it's convenient he used the 9/11 events to say Clinton didn't do enough. But, after I invited him over to "discuss" the 9/11 Commission findings, he came to the conclusion Clinton was right. ;)

 

Why must the republicans add "garbage" to bills to try to show the other side is weak on security? To add stuff that 170,000 Americans would lose their jobs to if the bill passes just to try and point fingers that the other side is weak? I agree with Bill, Rove is smart, and he sees that the people believe him and his garbage that the democrats are weak on security, so ever election year Rove brings it back up, it will depend on if people still buy into this and if the republicans scare enough people as they have in the past.

 

 

 

"WALLACE: …but the question is why didn't you do more, connect the

dots and put them out of business?

 

CLINTON: OK, let's talk about it. I will answer all of those things

on the merits but I want to talk about the context in which this…

arises. I'm being asked this on the FOX network…ABC just had a right

wing conservative on the Path to 9/11 falsely claim that it was

based on the 9/11 commission report with three things asserted

against me that are directly contradicted by the 9/11 commission

report. I think it's very interesting that all the conservative

Republicans who now say that I didn't do enough, claimed that I was

obsessed with Bin Laden. All of President Bush's neocons claimed

that I was too obsessed with finding Bin Laden when they didn't have

a single meeting about Bin Laden for the nine months after I left

office. All the right wingers who now say that I didn't do enough

said that I did too much. Same people.

 

They were all trying to get me to withdraw from Somalia in 1993 the

next day after we were involved in Black Hawk down and I refused to

do it and stayed 6 months and had an orderly transfer to the UN.

 

Ok, now let's look at all the criticisms: Black Hawk down, Somalia.

There is not a living soul in the world who thought that Bin Laden

had anything to do with Black Hawk down or was paying any attention

to it or even knew al Qaeda was a growing concern in October of 1993.

 

WALLACE: …I understand…

 

CLINTON: No wait…no wait…Don't tell me. You asked me why I didn't do

more to Bin Laden. There was not a living soul…all the people who

criticized me wanted to leave the next day. You brought this up so

you get an answer.

 

WALLACE: I'm perfectly happy to. Bin Laden says…

 

CLINTON: And secondly…

 

WALLACE: Bin Laden says…

 

CLINTON: Bin laden may have said that…

 

WALLACE: Bin Laden says it showed the weakness of the US…

 

CLINTON: It would have shown the weakness if we left right away but

he wasn't involved in that. That's just a bunch of bull. That was

about Mohammed Adid, a Muslim war lord murdering..thousands of

Pakistani Muslim troops. We were all there on a humanitarian

mission. We had not one mission — none — to establish a certain kind

of Somali government or to keep anybody out. He was not a religious

fanatic."
