Looks like an article written by the Carville/Begalla spinners.

Just shows they were not ready to get off the boat.

WE can be nice to them and they will go away.

Democrats leaking classified material and jeopardizing sources to try to ward off the gathering storm of public revulsion over their years of neglect of and indifference to a growing terrorist threat. Just as during the Cold War the public came to feel you could not trust a democrat with the White House, it is now dawning on them that the public may come to the conclusion that the democrats' approach to terrorism (take a poll, make a blustery speech, get back to domestic corruption) makes it unsafe to have one in the White House.

No doubt this was written as a direct result of the Clinton Team Harlem meeting yesterday. He's so desperate to create a legacy, still...

Buy a clue, Bill...you have a 2-pronged legacy--Monica and Impeachment.

"...Looks like an article written by the Carville/Begalla spinners..."

And, like all leftist propaganda efforts, it's unreadable, verbose, sophmoric BS.

When clinton wasn't getting sh!tfaced, he was getting a hoover or whacking his doodle.

That little Greek dweeb that looks like a towel-boy in a Turkish Bath was, for all practical purposes, the POTUS.

"Quiet War" on Terrorism- as if that egomaniac ever did anything without 20 press conferences.

"But Clinton declined to authorize the large-scale operation that Shelton said would be required, and he chose not to order a less ambitious option to which the general would have objected.

Where's my throw-up pot? Gimme a break, hero!You were the so-called "Commander in Chief." What you say goes, you gutless wonder. If you had engendered any respect from the military, they would have tried to counsel you. You should have been laughed out of office and imprisoned, you pathetic charlatan. Get the hell out of our lives.

And our national media "the free and independent press" so critical of Bush, and so full of all things hateful for conservatives - just sucks up the Clinton's press release (again!) and prints the whole thing ......

He got in power by lies that were never refuted - rather repeated verbatim - and stayed in power by writing the "news" to compliant news media hacks and liars .... and Hillary knows it.

She's doing the same thing now.

Notice this was printed just a few days after Cliton's "legacy" reform board met in New York...... So this is what they are use next.

With all these opportunities for 'greatness'. he blew it?

Such incompetence.

What was that statement by Lincoln, "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time."

The Arkansas pork barrel will go only so far.

Don't you realize? EVERYONE reads the Arkansas papers to see what's really happening.

(For awhile many fools actually thought this was true - but x42 is like the lead character in Sunset Boulevard - old news, past his superficial prime, and too foolish to do the least destrucive thing: moving on to the next stage of life)

Democrats leaking classified material.

What else is new. Did they really expect that this Clancyesque rendition of "WAR ROOM" pursuit would impress us. All of this runs totally counter to the FACT that Woolsey could NEVER get a face to face meeting with the Coward in Chief.

Nice try Carville, just won't work though.

If this is the best they can construct, then the reality must have been truly contemptible beyond words. This article represents nothing but dithering indecision, incompetence at the top, and gross failure of leadership.

"Has that clinton "legacy" made you feel safer yet?"


Lest Americans ever forget why the clintons, and all their enablers need to be hectored, hounded, and harried into silence, until "clintonese is only spoken in Hell," look here:

The Holiday *Best* of Bill Clinton & his Friends!

-clintonism in one easy lesson--

-"until clintonese is spoken only in Hell!"--

This wasn't written by Barton Gellman(whoever he is), it was written by x42 and his little toadies.
Written and sent to an Arkansas paper which condoned everything the x42 did.
I expect to see this article re-published(worded differently) in other papers across the country in weeks to come.
They must have a lot to hide!

Wow! 5,123 words in this article... running it by the old Arkansas crowd probably getting ready for a return to Broadway (NY Times and Wash. Post). These Clintonista's really are pathetic and obvious.
