Update: You really ought to go watch this clip. Clinton is simply the most gifted politician of our times. I have my issues with Clinton, but I sometimes forget not just what a tremendously effective communicator he is but how much he just plain gets it. He understands politics at a level no one else does. He intuitively knows the subtext to questions and so not only answers the expressed question but in a very analytical way picks apart the subtext and answers the implied question, too. If you're a little younger and missed most of the Clinton years, it's something to watch.I was thinking the same thing when I watched Clinton today, although I thought more how Clinton makes Bush look like such a dumb shit. (not that that is difficult) Someone really needs to make a video clip going back and forth between Bush and Clinton. Once again: how the hell could this guy get reelected?
You can watch the clip of Clinton on Crooks and Liars here.
UPDATE: I couldn't get the WMP version to work, but I could watch it with Quicktime- Crooks and Liars has a link to either version.
