Changing the tone in Washington
Looking at the treatment Clarke has received, what tone do you think it has been changed to?
And they can't do it differently. If they try to address the substance of Clarke's statements they are doomed.
Judy Woodward just asked if the Lewinski scandal interfered with Clinton's ability to act more strongly against terrorism? Clarke said yes, it was a factor.
Frist is starting to look pretty bad too. he's claiming Clarke had no right to apologize for the nation…but Clarke apologized for himself.
And he just indicted the media for not covering the 40 (forty!) Clinton speeches mentioning terrorism or the five exclusively dedicated to terrorism! Proper!
