I have to agree with S2S on this one. Clinton defended himself quite easily, and I don't think he attacked Wallace at all. He just put him in his place, and what I saw was a set up by Fox. Of course the Repubs would have attacked Clinton for it. By the way they were talking, I thought that Clinton had pushed the man or something. Clinton was just very passionate and enthusiastic about the topic and wanted to put a lot of emphasis on it to prove his point.
All Clinton did was defend himself and state the FACTS. He admitted that he made mistakes in the interview. That is something that Bush to this day still won't do. The Repubs continue to insist that we are winning the wars. Uh, LIE, duh!
Clinton specifically asked Wallace some questions and Wallace never answered them. And Fox news doesn't ask the other side those kinds of questions! What Clinton said was true! What happened to Clinton happens on this board all of the time. There is a breaking point. After the same people question you and question you in a derogatory manner about something that they know nothing about or isn't true, you get fed up.
Clinton is very witty and very intelligent, and that interview did nothing but prove it. You have to remember that Clinton went to Oxford University in England. They debate and argue a little more agressively over there. I wish that they would debate like they do over there here in this country.
I wish that a Dem media channel would sit Bush down and ask Bush why he didn't do anything about Al Queda when they blew up the USS Cole in Yemen in 2000...
Bush would freak and fall apart.
Like it or not, the Bush administration is using fear as a campaign strategy. These kinds of strategies always turn ugly. We are moving into an authoritarian government, and it must be stopped. Whether you want to believe it or not is your decision. But, just because you don't believe it doesn't mean that it isn't happening. It is happening. It is a fact. These wars have done nothing but further anger the terrorists in the Middle Easts. Our terrorist threat is the worst that it has ever been right now because of these wars. Troops are dieing because of it. We aren't safe. We will never be safe. They're fooling us. They're playing with us. We must stop them by talking and by voting.
