Right-wing Edit of Clinton Interview
Politics and Society, Uzbekistan3 Comments
Here is what I have just found on the Youtube video database. A fragment of Clinton’s interview that was aired on September 24 on Fox News Sunday. The former President is defending himself from the right-wingers’ attacks on himself and talking about if he had done enough to trap Osama Bin Laden and get basing rights in Uzbekistan.
conservativesunite, a Youtube user who uploaded this video, has his own opinion on what Mr. Clinton should have done during his presidency:
He [Clinton] had the chance and he messed up. At that time we still had a golden opportunity because of course after 911 OBL planned a hideaway. With people like OBL you get a 1 shot and Clinton failed to deliver. Blaming the FBI/CIA is silly – Clinton could have told the heads of the two agencies – “certify or find a new job”. I mean Clinton is not an employee of the FBI or CIA! And Uzbekistan – Clinton should have bribed or forced them to give the basing rights. We’re the richest most powerful country in the world – we could have done it. I think Clinton’s excuses are silly, and his performance on Fox was embarrassing to watch – he lost it.
