Comments on: Clinton-Wallace: Round One Goes To ....

[texaswriter]

Thanks God Bill Clinton has finally started acting like the man we elected President. Shub can find his butt with both hands - especially when pressured in interviews. I was so proud of Clinton's articulate, intelligent, perfectly informed NO BS answer. Flipped out? No way. Just brave,outspoken, and finally saying what most of us would want to say if put in that position. He must know what the American people are craving; A President who stands up for what's important. I'm sick of being lied to by the current, court-appointed administration. Bill Clinton is the last President this country legally elected and I'm proud to call him Mr. President. It's times like these when real men will step up to the plate and stop behaving like puppets for FEAR of being called "unpatriotic" or worse by the lying court-appointed Shub Administration. I only wish he could be re-elected. How much longer are sheeple going to keep believing all the administration lies? I don't get it...

It seems the real Clinton has finally appeared. Anger was the one thing he hide well through out his conspiratorial Presidency. Step up friends and meet the real Bill. The smirk he noted on Wallace's face was really nothing more then a reflection of his own phony smile. I believe he finds it difficult to answer honest questions without injecting his convoluted belief of truth. Smoke and mirrors fits this bill well!(No pun intended}

Well, CBS will never be acused of "liberal bias" based on your pointedly unfinished headline. Ol' Bill won that one in a walk. I just hope some other Democrats take the hint and start doing the same thing.

You also don't have to worry about Katie getting cut off at the knees as long as she keeps pitching those soft ball questions she was throwing to Rice Sunday night. At least Chris had the guts to try.

"seeing the president sort of flip out this way..."

I'm sorry, were you watching the same thing I saw? Nobody flipped out. Because he didn't act half dead or lay down and let Chris Wallace beat on him he's suddenly a crazy man? That sounds like a Fox News talking point to me. Clinton was forceful and assertive and extremely on target. It's the right wing bullies who are flipping out; they're not just used to seeing Democrats who still have spines.

Clinton was dead on accurate. There is a disinformation campaign going on, a very deliberate one, about 9/11 and bin laden. Good for him for calling it out. Shame on the media for trying to turn this into a 'Clinton vs. Wallace' catfight. Let's listen to what the man said, eh?

And let's hope some of the Dems were taking notes. They need to show a lot more of this, or we're all headed for the toilet.

peace.

how about 'retiring' Gen. Shinseki? The man had studied insurgent warfare since his tenure in Vietnam, he understood what we would need to be successful in Iraq, yet he was ridiculed for suggesting that it would take several hundred thousand troops to hold the country after the invasion. Safer? the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, the middle class gets squeezed because 'he tried to kill my daddy'

I Think if all the right wingers were not interfering with him in the oval office with insignificant government business he would have more time to concentrate on foreign affairs. After all they wasted millions of tax payers dollars proving a point that the man lied about his own personal *** life instead of concentrating or worrying about protecting the country.

How many of those same men cheated on their wives and how many of them were more interested in their own political gains rather than the safely of this country.

President Clinton did what he had to do when he had to do it.

One more thing, whatever Clinton did or did not do to catch Bin Laden, it is NOTHING compared to the idea that Bush thew out a CIA operative from his office when warned Bin Laden was about to attack the US in August of 2001. Bush couldn't be bothered with Clinton's obsession with that man.

No wonder Clinton got red-faced, I'm read faced just writing about it!

Hooray for Bill Clinton, good lord we wouldn't be in this stew of a mess in the middle east if he was still president! I am totally fed up with the mass media trying to destroy this country by propping up a party that does all it can to throw money its way at the expense of the average citizen. Wanna know where your Medicare and Social Security money is going? To Exxon and Haliburton and all the companies that own the media. WAKE UP AMERICA!!

Since the hatchet job ABC did on 9/11 I no longer watch the network, visit the website, patronize its sponsors or otherwise have anything to do with Disney. We must take our country back in November or there won't be much left of a country for our children!

I totally agree with jed clampett. Mr. Clinton had every right to nail Chris Wallace and forcefully reply to the latest GOP "blame game".
I am so weary of lies, spins, half truths, biased "balanced news", and in general, the garbage that comes out of the administration and their conservative right wing in place of thoughtful, truthful, and responsible statements. It's time to get angry enough to respond to every stupid comment, challenge the lie, back the liar into a corner and make him stop it. We need leadership in this country not TV ratings!

round goes to Mr. Clinton.

He responded exactly how he should to someone itent on embarrasing him and spinning the interview to his designs. Not once did he stammer or invent words. Wonder how George would have fared if asked about all the kids coming back from Iraq with severe injuries, like missing limbs, holes in the head. Or if asked why they ignored Gen. Shinseky and any other advisor with experience and planning? What happend to we'll go in and take him out and get out? Why have the people of Texas been ignored after Rita? They sure dumped alot of money on the oil companies. I guess they really needed it more than the people. At least Clinton has the huevos to go in to enemy territory, Bush won't go where hardballs are thrown at him.

I still hope to see the entire interview, I try to go into fox news but I can't get the video to play with my security settings. :-)

unfortunately, everyone is focusing on his response rather than what he said, Mr. Clinton, more power to you and your initiatives. Wish you could run again, maybe the budget would get balanced, drug program would be amended, the people would have a voice instead of the fattest businesses.
