Big Dawg sticks it to FOX News

Glenn Greenwald has posted some good comments on Bill Clinton's face-off with Chris Wallace:

Who wanted to "cut and run" from Somalia? War Room blog Salon 09/25/06

Revisiting GOP attacks on President Clinton War Room blog Salon 09/25/06

Who wanted to "cut and run" from Somalia? Unclaimed Territory blog 09/25/06

Greenwald has some choice quotes from the good ole days, when the Republican Party line was that Clinton was reckless and foolish to be so aggressive in fighting terrorism. He concludes one of the above posts:

The claim that Clinton paid insufficient attention to terrorism was one that virtually no Republicans made during the Clinton presidency. To the contrary, terrorism and Islamic fundamentalism were barely on their radar screen, and when they were, it was most prominently to use those issues as a weapon to attack Clinton politically and to suggest that he was deploying the military not for any legitimate reason (such as the terrorist threat) but only to distract the country's attention from the far more pressing sex scandal engulfing our government.

FEATURED QUOTE

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."
