Bill Clinton’s Walk Down Hubris Lane
September 26, 2006 at 8:50 am
Michael Scheuer, who in his book “Imperial Hubris” calls the Iraq invasion “an avaricious, premeditated, unprovoked war against a foe who posed no immediate threat,” has this to say about Bill Clinton after Clinton’s appearance on “Fox News Sunday” with Chris Wallace: “I thought Clinton was lying.”
Scheuer tells WTWP radio this morning that Biil Clinton had ten opportunities to kill Osama Bin Laden. President Bush had none.

“We should replay that interview as often as possible,” chortled Republican strategist Nelson Warfield on Tuesday.
“In this election there’s been a lot of worry among Republicans about whether our base is motivated and is going to turn out to vote,” Warfield said. “Nothing motivates the Republican base more than some puffy pontification from Bill Clinton. When he has a little fit on TV, it reminds us of the future that awaits if the Democrats should ever win another national election.”

Bull market
Washington blogger Howard Mortman’s (www.extrememortman.com) ears’ perked up when former President Bill Clinton told Fox News’ Chris Wallace on Sunday that what Osama bin Laden said about his administration was “a bunch of bull.”
Sounds familiar, said Mr. Mortman, who presents Mr. Clinton in his own words:
•”They knew for a long time there was nothing to Whitewater. They knew it was a bunch of bull.” (Jan. 26, 2000)
•”The American people know that all the old cliches — tax and spend, soft on crime, weak on welfare — that it’s all a bunch of bull.” (Feb. 17, 1996)
•”He has said publicly that Judge David Hale’s story is ‘a bunch of bull’ fabricated to help him engineer a plea bargain with Kenneth Starr.” (April 3, 1996)
•”They say, aw, it doesn’t matter who wins, all the politicians — you’ve heard all that stuff. I’m telling you it’s a bunch of bull.” (March 17, 1996)
•”Folks, it’s a bunch of bull.” (Oct. 4, 2000)
