    Tell that to the idiots that spent 8 years trying to railroad a president out of office and are now trying to blame 911 for.

    So you've posted in it twice. No doubt you are disgusted with yourself. Thank you for the insight, Fatty.

    Who said anything about his father's "impartiality?" Please point it out. I think his father would be disgusted with his son posing as a journalist on right-wing suckup Fox News. I'm a liberal Democrat. If I lived long enough to see my son do what Chris Wallace is doing on Fox News, it would absolutely make me disgusted with him. "Son," I would say, "the money simply isn't worth selling yourself out."

    Thanks for the link. Now, again, please tell me about the "underage actresses" you accused me of lusting after. By all accounts, Lohan is over 18.

    Btw, my wife has seen me look at Lohan and other young actresses in our Entertainment Weekly magazines that we receive. I think she's ok with it, but I'll check.

    Yes, believe it or not I enjoy admiring hot actresses and other fine looking women. But unlike Clinton I'm able to control my urges and keep it in my pants. (Trying to keep this thread on topic.)

    Also unlike Clinton, you have no chance with hot actresses or fine looking women.

    The thing is that Clinton showed the bias. He was right. There is nothing wrong with asking him about why he didn't do enough. But he correctly pointed out that nobody asks the Bush administration why they did nothing about it.

    It isn't that they ask Clinton, it is that they don't ask Bush. Wallace was shamed, and deservedly so.

    I think that term was first uttered in the 2003 SOTU, IIRC.

    Fixed.



    Unless you find Hillary Rhodham, Monica Lewinsky or Paula Jones to fit those descriptions.

    yawn...as i said elsewhere, i'm not interested in who did what pre 9/11, only in what you've done since. and the bush/clinton debate is only interesting to the extent clintonistas try to suggest 9/11 was bush's fault. it wasn't, nor was it clintons, it was osama's, and our collective lack of will and imagination. but, somewhere, in a secure location, Karl and Dick are smiling...

    Deck, I know you're old but isn't this a bit myopic? Can't you even allow for the possibility that no one is selling themselves out just because they work for Fox News.

    I like Clinton but 9/11 wasn't his fault. The funny things is, I wouldn't blame Bush for it either. It is no one person's fault and I agree with an earlier post all this finger pointing is stupid. Both sides (Democrats & Republicans) could've done more in the fight against terrorism and still can.

    You make an excellent point, and one I largely agree with, but Democrats are tired of being punching bags for Rove and the GOP. If they keep saying this crap, Democrats should give as good as they get. One of the things that has hurt them in the past has been letting the GOP get away with this stuff. No longer, in my opinion. I'm glad Clinton spoke up.

    The problem I see with this thread is that the interview hasn't been broadcast yet, and won't be until 6pm tomorrow. All I've seen are soundbites on Fox, which are predictably bookended with comments attempting to make Wallace look good, and Clinton look bad. This discussion is a tad premature.
