The point with Clinton is that he can't get off the stage, and says idiotic things that nobody calls him on.

If the leftis going to skewer Bush on a charge of inventing claims of WMD, it seems logical to point out that the left's heroes (Clinton included) also believed there were WMDs in Iraq

It's not a matter of scoring points. It is a matter of establishing the ground rules for debate. If your opponents are going to disingenuously accuse you of lying, you need to point out that you're using the same assumptions that they used to come to the same conclusions

Clintonism thrives on the public inattention to detail

In that case, a plague on both your houses. Most Americans, and increasingly most conservativesk, are not interested in these petty partisan squabbles. They want answers, not gamesmanship.
