I don't think there's a person alive who watched TV or the past couple of days who hasn't seen the video.It has to be seen to be believed.
Clinton responded to a simple question with
anger, bitterness and demeaning conduct. He repeatedly interrupted Wallace, wagged his finger at him, invaded his personal space, and offered paranoid theories as to why Wallace was asking this perfectly reasonable question which, as noted, above, Wallace has asked Republicans too.
Wallace had him dead to rights. His administration did fail to deal with the terrorist threat in more than a desultory way.
In fairness, the same can be said of all pre-9/11 administrations going back to Jimmy Carter's, including George W. Bush's for the first 234 days.
But history is likely to accord Clinton much bulk of the blame for failing to pre-empt the 9/11 attacks. Clinton had approximately six years after the first WTC attack to deal with the problem; Bush had less than eight months.
To be honest, however, I can almost sympathize with Clinton. The man has to be so used to being handled with kid gloves by the liberal media that any sort of question that isn't a softball is probably an unpleasant surprise.
