Why Clinton Blew His Top: FNC's Wallace Only Interviewer to Ask About Pre-9/11 Failures
NewsBusters ^ | September 24, 2006 | Rich Noyes

By now, nearly everybody who cares has probably seen former President Bill Clinton's -- let's say 'animated' -- response to 'Fox News Sunday' host Chris Wallace's questions about his administration's failed efforts to demolish al-Qaeda before the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

But Wallace himself hit on the key media bias question ...

Trying to explain Clinton's hot reaction, Wallace said he read the transcripts of the ex-President's other media appearances in the last few days -- on NBC's 'Meet the Press,' CNN's 'Larry King Live,' FNC's 'On the Record with Greta van Susteren,' among other programs.

Wallace said he was "astonished" that none of the others even bothered to raise the terrorism question with Clinton, particularly with his team's attacks on ABC's "Path to 9/11" docu-drama.

Clinton sounded like a left-wing press critics with his repeated jibes at Fox as a "conservative" or "right-wing" outfit.

But what, besides liberal bias, explains the other journalists' total lack of interest in even asking a single question about Clinton's inadequate terror response?

Bush could have put Sandy Burger in jail. He let him go. The inside the beltway protection from Vince Foster to 9/11 must stop. This will cause us to fall like the Roman Empire.

MEN? On the 9/11 Commission?

The Republicans appointed pussycats; the Democrats appointed bulldogs.

How dare Wallace ask Clinton a question that Clinton doesn't want to answer?

Reporters are only allowed to ask Clinton softball questions like the ones that Dan Ratherbiased used to ask.

You're not used to this type of scrutiny.

Mike was a terrible father.

Daddy never bothered much to see Chris as a child, as Mike had moved on ...

For all Clinton's failures - and they are Legion - the real failure lies with the first Bush administration.

Saddam didn't have any clue nor care that the smoke of the Kuwaiti oil fields he lit off might encircle the Earth for weeks or months, choking off farm crops and leading to global starvation on a massive scale.

That alone should have been reason to take him out. And he get's a second chance?!?!

Thank God for the American Hellfighters!

Gore's global warming indeed.

You are so right. Right after the 9/11 group finished that worthless John F. Lehman was on NPR talking about how we need a federal police force. This SOB is dangerous.

10 years and 10,000 dollars per count is the real punishment by law. Why was the law not used?

It had to momentarily floor Wallace that he would be called a right wing conservative. It would be like calling Bill O'Reilly a left wing psycho.
