"Mr. Clinton wrote his book after the Sept. 11 attacks, and he devotes a good deal of space to his administration's efforts to deal with terrorism, and its growing concern about Osama bin Laden.

Well, as Gomer Pyle would say....."Surprise, surprise, surprise".

The book's length gives the former president plenty of room to settle scores and he does so with his customary élan. He takes the whip to Republicans in Congress;"

Can you tell it really gets under his skin, that because of his failed leadership, a lot of those Republicans got elected to congress in YEAR 2 of his presidency?

"He also notes that in 1996 he signed two directives on terrorism and appointed Richard A. Clarke to be the administration's terrorism coordinator."

Yes, Bill, there are many of us who have already taken note of your appointment of Dick Clarke!

"He explained the sudden appearance of Mrs. Clinton's legal billing records in the White House residence as the product merely of sloppy record-keeping in Arkansas.

But of course! That's how they ended up in the White House?!!

Thanks for highlighting this, I was going to remark on this amazing line of clintonian logic:

He explained the sudden appearance of Mrs. Clinton's legal billing records in the White House residence as the product merely of sloppy record-keeping in Arkansas.

And again, the New York Times doesn't blink an eye. Why that sloppy record-keeping transported those records by invisible transponder waves and they landed smack dab in the living quarters of the WH. I'm glad that's cleared up!
