Chris Wallace: Clinton Chewed Out His Staff After Interview While Still at Fox-TV Studio

Fox TV Morning Show (25 September) ^ | 25 September 2006 | AmericanInTokyo

Chris Wallace (FOX TV) just stated on the Monday morning news segment of Fox TV (aired in the 7:00 a.m. EST hour) that, not only did Bill Clinton retain his anger at Wallace after the interview was over and the cameras were off (despite Wallace trying to part on friendly terms), Clinton absolutely fumed at his own personal staff, right then and there while still on the Fox TV premises, for getting him into the interview with Wallace where he had earlier lost his head.

Wallace said Clinton's blow up at his staff for this mistake was very visible and very audible and very emotional.

I would not doubt that there was violence later that day, at least a coffee mug or two thrown at staff.

What a hateful, abusing, violent man. He certainly is capable of rapes, domestic abuse, and even putting out hits on people if you ask me.

This was a Mel Gibson quality meltdown...and Bill was stone cold sober!

[Grendel9]

You can't really blame the Clintons
for always laying the blame at some
one else's door....they got away with
it for so long, it became an instinctive
response.

[don-o]

Cris shoulda bitch slapped that crazy man.

He does seem to lose it at times....

Back in '92, he was running against Tom Harkin for the Dem nomination. Jesse Jackson basically told him to fork over more goodies, or he'd support Harkin.

Clintard went ballistic then and called Jesse several things that I feel describe the Reverand accurately, but are not the basic staples of polite conversation.

Sorry,

was he wagging a finger or a cigar at his staff?

Can't help myself.

"Well I see a fox...and another fox ...and I see a mean looking conservative ,and they are trying to get me ...and and...."

[tiredoflaundry]

It get keeps getting better! hehehehehe.

Bill has officially crossed into "geezerland." (I'm the same age).

He probably throws a fit when the supermarket checkout clerk won't take his expired coupons.

Both Bubba & Shrillery are getting old. It appears that they are starting to lost their "edge" - not cool anymore. Their spin machine appears to be slowing down.

[sockmonkey]

What it does show is how ticked off Clinton was

When he started kinda slurring his words, I thought he was gonna stroke out. Watching his meltdown, I realized that the rows between him and Hilary must've been a sight to behold.

[Sacajaweau]

Anyone who saw the interview knows that Bubba took complete control of the interview...continuously cuttting Wallace off. Bubba ranted and raved and passed the buck to Clarke.

This is the same Bubba who considered his impeachment a badge of honor.

Where's Hillary??

[Kaslin]

I think they did, because Gretchen Wilson, who took over for E.D. Hills said something about it

[Just mythoughts]

I have little doubt bj came to Fox prepared to settle a score, what I think set him off was when Wallace described the numerous emails from people wanting Clinton to be asked 'WHY'?

Up to this point he was in his lip biting persona, going to do some good before he dies.

My ex was in TV network news a long time. When talking about meeting Algore or one of them he said they are all the same. They are big, tall men who arrive with guards. You just know that they would squash you, if you crossed them, he said. I met HHH once, but he was a shrimp and a zombie. LOL

[tomnbeverly]

Bill Clintons, Howard Dean Moment. Priceless. The rage of the American left.

[johnny7]

The DBM is totally ignoring Clinton's insane tirade... they're using “Angrily Defends” to describe his gonzo behavior... even using that in their headlines.

If it was Bush or anyone from his administration... they'd be screaming for them to be committed!!

[4yearlurker]

Clinton is a bully who expects to have his pale white a$$ kissed at every turn. Nothing this guy does is his fault. Was his staff part of the "right wing conspiracy" too?

[AmericanInTokyo]

Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees
And begged you not to leave
Because I'd go berserk?
Well. . .

You left me anyhow
And then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone
Completely out of my mind
And. . .

They're coming to take me away, HA HA
They're coming to take me away, HO HO HEE HEE HA HA
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see
Those nice, young men
In their clean, white coats
And they're coming to take me away, Ha-haaa!

You thought it was a joke
And so you laughed
You laughed when I had said
That losing you would make me flip my lid
Right. . .

You know you laughed, I heard you laugh
You laughed, you laughed and laughed
And then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad!
And. . .

They're coming to take me away, HA HA
They're coming to take me away, HO HO HEE HEE HA HA
To the happy home
With trees and flowers and chirping birds
And basket weavers who sit and smile
And twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to take me away, Ha-haaa!

He used to be good at controlling it in public. I guess he's losing it as he gets older.
