The best is the coughing attack that Mansbridge, (or someone in the room) had right at the end. It didn't even phase Clinton. Maybe it was a secret service dude choking on Tim Horton's?

It was a good interview though.

Its easy for Clinton to play Monday Morning Quarterback since he didn't have to deal with 9/11, and based on his tepid responses to Terrorism in the past I just don't think that his usual response of launching cruise missiles at random targets would have shown any kind of strength or resolve.

I have very little respect for Bill Clinton. I will give him credit, he makes a nice speech, but other than that I just get the sense that he's a useless persson when the crap hits the fan.

I lost a bit of respect for Bill watching that too... I think, like Captain said, its very easy to armchair general the situation. Bill would have very well done the same, or done nothing and been hammered that way, which is worse.

He should have said that being President is not easy and its easy to sit back and nitpick... he may as well have been wearing a Kerry hat, and it suited that clown Mansbridge just fine.

:P

That was great! It wasn't Peter though, because if you listen closely, you can hear the cougher leave the room (door closes behind him), but if you strain hard enough, you can still hear the coughing with the door closed.
