"We were all laughing about it"

"We were all laughing about it," Clinton said about the investigation into Sandy Berger for taking classified terrorism documents from the National Archives back in July of 2004. "People who don't know him might find it hard to believe. But . . . all of us who've been in his office have always found him buried beneath papers."  What a lovable, bumbling guy, huh? Clinton aide Paul Begala's "Stroke of the pen. Law of the land. Kind of cool" comes to mind. These are not serious people, and they don't take us fellow Americans seriously. The rising tide of Islamist fascism swelled during their time at the helm, and now Bubba wants it to just all go away and let his "legacy" rise to the skies even as his successor gets mired in the post-9/11 quagmire that is his true legacy, but the blogosphere ain't gonna let it happen.

"If you ever put me in that position again, you're fired," said an apoplectic Bubba to his blindsided staff following a noxious "Fox News Sunday" interview with the faultlessly "fair and balanced" Chris Wallace Sunday that our fellow citizens of the left are now desperately attempting to spin in their fallen hero's favor. Like Chris, who was there, we aren't buyin':

Former President Clinton is a very big man. As he leaned forward -- wagging his finger in my face -- and then poking the notes I was holding -- I felt as if a mountain was coming down in front of me.

"I thought it was a fair, balanced and not especially inflammatory question," Wallace said yesterday in recounting his "Fox News Sunday" sit-down with Clinton. "I even said, 'I know hindsight is 20/20.' But he went off. And once he went off, there was no bringing him back. He wanted to talk about it in detail. He wanted to conjure up right-wingers and conservative hit jobs and a theory involving Rupert Murdoch that I still don't understand."

A mountain of something that comes steaming out of Cowes came to our own mind. The finger pointing echoed Slick Willy's "Bartlett's moment" back when he beseeched us unwashed to believe that he had never had sexual relations with that woman, Monica Lewinsky. Bill Clinton said post impeachment that his affair with Monica Lewinsky was "a terrible moral error" but that he regarded his battle against the impeachment that followed as "a badge of honor."

He loves, and she loves, and they love . . .?

That Hillary and the left would stand by their man speaks for itself. Who could blame Chelsea, the future first female president of these United States? Our toes have been in permanent curl position from the moment Bill and Hill told Dan -- or whoever it was that conducted that unspeakable "60 Minutes" interview -- they'd made marital mistakes and were sorry. When they got their young daughter -- the three of them lying back on a hammock -- to say she was "glad they're my parents," we knew it was child abuse and never looked back.

Clinton was a disaster for the world and the USA but who can blame Bill when liberals will support anything to obtain the power to tell the rest of how to live.

R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr. was right when he called the Clintons The Snopes.

well said Ms. Willis!

* outstanding.

i unfortunately watched Bill stump for Democrat Claire McCaskill on C-Span 2 in St. Louis. it was ugly...

i had visions of the Wellstone Memorial.

it was one of the most unethical performances i can remember. he seems to enjoy being dishonest...

to me, Bill's insecurity, makes him jealous of Men like GW Bush.

i do feel, having Americans reminded of the Clinton negligence, enabling threats with inept weakness, corruption, and appeasement, is a serious problem for Democrats with November looming.

it did take sincere attention away from the last pathetic NY Times leak...

He DID NOT have sex with Osama bin Laden!

Sorry I missed Fox News Sunday, I usually watch it. Chris is a very balanced kind of interviewer, unlike Russert, whose tricks are getting to be old hat.

William Jefferson Clinton is an amoral, dishonest, unethical self-loathing sociopath with few, if any, redeeming features. These words are definition of character, not defamation!

Since the meltdown was leaked ahead of time, I didn't feel the need to watch it. I heard part of it on Michael Graham's show yesterday when I was in the car. I couldn't figure out if it was all an act or if he is about to go off his rocker... and I find myself supremely uninterested in this man who was President. I can't work up any emotion at all except exasperation that he seems to love the camera and the attention so much.
