...But At Least Clinton Was Willing To Say It

Given the circumstances, no other three-word combination would have sufficed: “How Dare You?”
That was part of the response from former President Bill Clinton, when confronted by hecklers at a Hillary 2008 fund raising event in Minneapolis.
The story went like this: after making a late start with what turned out to be his approximately fifty-minute speech, Clinton was rudely interrupted by several hecklers in the audience who began shouting at him, and over him, and claiming that the terrorist attacks of 2001 were a “fraud.“
Even if you haven’t seen the video, it’s not difficult to imagine how this could have played-out. Our former President could have easily ignored the hecklers, or could have easily remained silent for a second or two, and allowed them to be cleared away by security officials - - and then could have continued right along with his remarks.
But instead, President Clinton chose to confront the hecklers head-on.
In the face of the “fraud” claim, Clinton confronted them directly. “A fraud?” No it wasn’t a fraud!” he shot back, as the crowd began to cheer him on. “I’ll be glad to talk to you” Clinton stated, trying to bring closure to the interruption, “if you shut up and let me talk.”
As he then attempted to continue with his address, another heckler shouted at President Clinton, claiming that the terrorist attacks had been an “inside job.”
“An inside job?” Clinton retorted, with indignation in his voice. “How dare you. How dare you! It was NOT an inside job!”

I guess the disgraced/disbarred ex-president realizes that the 9-11 Truthers are actually tossing accusations towards him. If their claims were to be taken seriously, the planning and mechanics of such an event would have to have been started under his reign. Their theories won't cast a very good light on his diminished tenure of chaos and debauchery...LOL
Naturally, there was multiple Free Republic threads on this (LOL).
Anyway, it was pointed out how the whole thing looked scripted by Clinton as a kind of “Sister Soulja” incident to make the Hildebeast look more moderate.
Worth considering, at least.
