The power of being an ex-president

Damn. Clinton did a number on Chris Wallace. He knows this Repuglican BS is just a game to stay in power, and he pulls no punches about it, either.

Many people despise him because he lied about Monica Lewinsky. I think he may have made a serious error in judgment and should have simply come clean and dared anyone to come forward to challenge him on it. He wasn't the first president to fool around while in office. I doubt he'll be the last, either. But that aside, he understands the issues and isn't content to let others push him around.

He doesn't criticize the president, and he's wise not to, but after 6 years, is it really smart to blame him for the current situation? We all knew he tried to raise the Bin Laden issue to the new administration when he left office, and they had no interest. I remember that, at least. And all this is after Bush said that Bin Laden wasn't a priority. Methinks they might want to revisit that position.

I can't understand why we're wasting all this time and money in Iraq when the real problem is elsewhere. My opposition to the war in Iraq doesn't mean I'm soft on terrorism (as if any American could be). It means I think it was a big mistake, and was enjoined on false pretenses. What I want at this point is for those who misled us to be held accountable. Otherwise, we are stuck having to clean up the mess that we caused.
