Nostalgic for Bubba

I was interested in reading the Herald's front page story today, the graphic peering at me from newspaper boxes was so very appealing. I'm a little disappointed that the "news article" is barely a full page, see here. Here's one for the files: relying solely on AP reports for a front page story is to be called a "fargen". I'm not a regular front-half-of-the-Herald reader, so maybe that's par for the course. Then again, they didn't describe how Wallace had his hat handed to him.

Stunning work by Clinton. Hey, Wallace, if you don't want to hear the answer, don't ask the damn question! It was brutal to hear Wallace be like, "Can we talk about the Clinton Global Initiative", after Clinton thrashed FOX. Perfect. The only way it could have been better if Clinton had gotten Wallce and the Fox Network to _promise_ to ask GW Bush or Cheney why they "didn't connect the dots." Fox bias has almost no bounds. And yes, the Herald forgot to mention Wallace came off like an ass, and Clinton called him on it.

I can't bear to watch it. Underscores how much we've lost the past 6 years. Remember when we had a leader that was coherent, and could actually hold his half of a discussion? I disagree with Clinton on a couple issues (Trent Lott, for instance, applauded the use of cruise missiles in Sudan), but at least Clinton has a grasp of the issues... _and_ I could see myself having a beer with him. Even though I disagree with him, I know where he stands.

This is funny. The VRWC takes issue with Clinton, because his delivery is like Bush's!
