Clinton on Fahrenheit 911
Edited on Tue Jul-20-04 11:47 AM by party_line
from the Rolling Stone interview:

Have you seen "Fahrenheit 9/11"?

I have.

What did you think?

I think every American ought to see it. As far as I know, there are no factual errors in it, but it may connect the dots a little too close -- about the Saudis and the Bushes, and the terror and all. I'd like to see it again before making a judgment about whether I think it's totally fair.

As somebody who's been in the business of making decisions, to me the most powerful question presented was whether it was appropriate to send the bin Ladens -- and the other Saudis -- without interrogating them first. There's no question that most of family deplores what he did. But, on the other hand, it's highly likely that somebody knew something that could be of value.

Do you think it moves the meter on the election?

Yeah, I think it has some effect on it. I think it just shows that we've got the intensity on our side this year.

1. It is so refreshing to hear Clinton speak, and so well on F/911.
I miss the correct use of the "Kings" english with actually thinking
showing in the content. He is like a drink of cool water on a hot day.

3. Thanks for posting this.

It's a good interview. I liked the part about Kerry being smart
by not saying something that gets him on the evening news
every night.
