In a post I made a day or two ago I featured a video of Bill Clinton vs Fox News, from Sunday’s Fox News airing. Well, without surprise at all, this entire thing has certainly snowballed quite a bit.
It started off with former President Bill Clinton calling out a Fox News reporter and essentially calling him a biased right-wing media whore, which I’d personally say is a fairly accurate description of generally anyone over at Fox News. Mr. Clinton’s comments were sharp and to the point, accusing Fox News of being one sided, not asking the same questions to both Democrats and Republicans and essentially calling BS on everything the Fox News reporter started off saying. Clinton also admitted to failing in finding Osama Bin Laden, but admitted the fact that at least they looked for him, which is more than can be said for President George W. Bush and his crew.
It was these comments inparticular that set off retaliatory jabs from Condoleezza Rice and George W. Bush. They both, of course, played the blame game and gave their usual reply of ‘nuh uh, nuh uh, nuh uh. We’re right and you’re not, so shut up poopy head,’ like any 4 year old in a sandbox would do. Both Rice and Bush said that they had done more to track down Osama Bin Laden than Clinton had done and that Billy Boy never took the threat of terrorist actions serious enough. Though, judging by the current state of affairs in the US and the general feeling of ‘Osama Who?’ running through the Republican government, I tend not to exactly agree with those points.
Now, since Georgie Boy and Condee got their shot to comment on the situation and accuse Clinton of doing a worse job than them, Senator Hillary Clinton has stepped up to defend her husband. How cool is that? For some reason this actually surprises me a little. Senator Clinton made some fairly pointed comments and did a great job defending her hubby. Good work guys! Maybe you should have teamed up a bit more when Billy was President if it works so well?
“I think my husband did a great job in demonstrating that Democrats are not going to take these attacks,” Mrs. Clinton said. “I’m certain that if my husband and his national security team had been shown a classified report entitled ‘Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside the United States’ he would have taken it more seriously than history suggests it was taken by our current president and his national security team.”
Zing! This comment was made in regards to a document that was apparently presented to the Bush administration before 9/11 ever occured, which they promptly swept under the rug.
All I have to say is cheers to Hillary Clinton for standing behind her husband and cheers to Billy boy for have the steely ones to stand up to the right-wing media and cut them off at the neck.
