"Had Clinton scrambled 1,000 airplanes and called the nation's attention to the Africa embassy bombings, I don't think he would have had the support. What if he asked for $40 billion from Congress after the bombings? We couldn't even get enough money to protect the embassies," said Frank Wisner, a former CIA official, undersecretary of defense and ambassador to India during the Clinton administration.

Is he trying to tell us that "the greatest communicator ever" with Dick Morris at his beck and call and a bunch of pro-Clinton media outlets couldn't convince the American people that it was necessary. No instead we allowed everyone including Hollywood to stuff Clinton down our throats (ooops a Freudian slip). Wag the Dog was not only an insult to our political system and The Presidency but more importantly it was a joke on all us average Joes -- They knew their man and Hollywood laughed at us!

And an insult to the American people!! In my perfect world - an interviewer would never accept the phrase "The American people want or believe, or think" such and such. If the person being interviewed wants to say "I believe etc." fine but never again speak for ME!!!!
