Clinton Makes a Fool of Himself Again

Clinton Makes a Fool of Himself Again
The most immature, selfish, and self-indulgent president in our history holds forth on his favorite topic, himself in Newsweek Magazine. The article and the accompanying interview remind us just how lucky we were that no real problems arose during his tenure. He belittles the war on terrorism as no big deal and that history will not record the attacks on the World Trade Center as a significant moment in history.
This is a bit ironic as, immediately after the war, he moaned at how unlucky he was that such an attack did not occur on his watch. It would have given him the opportunity to show just what a great president he really was. But, now that he's gotten used to the fact that it is actually somebody else's challenge, well, it's no big deal.
Even his regrets about the pardon of fugitive financier Marc Rich are framed, not in right or wrong (Clinton has no sense of right and wrong), but in political terms. He regrets the damage the pardon did to his reputation. The truth is that he pardons did not damage his reputation, only reinforced what we already knew about him.
