Keith Olbermann Comments on Bill Clinton's Fox News interview |
Keith had some choice words to say after the Clinton interview on Fox. He earns an Algae Award specifically for pointing out the role the supposed "news agency" played in attempting to set him up and/or bait him. He said that Clinton spoke the truth, and, specifically pointed out that Clinton had rightfully called attention to the eight months of inaction by the Bush administration, for which the press had been giving a "free pass".

Excerpt: It is not essential that a past president, bullied and sandbagged by a monkey posing as a newscaster, finally lashed back. It is not important that the current President’s portable public chorus has described his predecessor’s tone as “crazed.” Our tone should be crazed. The nation’s freedoms are under assault by an administration whose policies can do us as much damage as al Qaida; the nation’s marketplace of ideas is being poisoned by a propaganda company so blatant that Tokyo Rose would’ve quit. Nonetheless. The headline is this: Bill Clinton did what almost none of us have done in five years. He has spoken the truth about 9/11, and the current presidential administration. "At least I tried," he said of his own efforts to capture or kill Osama bin Laden. "That’s the difference in me and some, including all of the right-wingers who are attacking me now. They had eight months to try; they did not try. I tried." |
