Bill Clinton just totally kicked Peter Jennings ass!

[gauguin57]

Jennings was going on about how much Clinton cares about his legacy --Clinton was talking about how his personal mistake caused a bunch of innocent people to be brought down because they wouldn't lie to Ken Starr...

Jennings was being prickly ... and Clinton said, "You don't want to go there, Peter. YOU DON'T WANT TO GO THERE! After what you people did to me ... after your network and others repeated every sleazy little detail that Ken Starr put out there...."

I LOVED IT! KICK ASS BIG DOG!

Someone needs to put them in their place.

[gauguin57]

13. Clinton's not gonna let Jennings keep firing Repug talking points about

the impeachment or Osama or ANYTHING without barking right back. He's narrowing those eyes and going for the jugular. WOOT WOOT!

[KoKo]

14. Good for Him! Thanks for the report for those of us who are TV FREE!

Kick him good, Bill...Some of us remember...

[PlanetBev]

15. Was this on the ABC news, or was this a special?

I'm just not up to watching the news these days.

[Miami Liberal]

it was on ABC's Primetime show

[otohara]

20. Special

Hasn't aired in my red state yet -

[Nicole]

16. It was wonderful!

I loved it.

[unfrigginreal]

17. He gave it to Jennings with both barrels

"When the World was giving me a standing ovation at the UN, unprecedented for a US President, *you* and *your network* were showing my grand jury testimony. *You* made those decisions to keep the American public from seeing how the World felt about what was happening in America"

As best I can remember

[gauguin57]

18. Clinton told Jennings the historians are wrong to give him 41st

place under "moral authority," because he was dealing with Bosnia and Haiti and all kinds of stuff while Ken Starr was spending huge amounts of OUR money to inflate a personal mistake into this massive investigation they found NOTHING on.

He said he had the support of world leaders (as we all know... most world leaders aren't going to give a rat's ass about someone's sexual peccadillos).

Love you, Big Dog.

[Blue_Roses]

19. I LOVED IT!

I WAS PARALYZED WATCHING CLINTON! :wow: HE TOTALLY SMACKED PETER JENNINGS DOWN GO BIG DOG! :kick:

FINALLY CLINTON HAS HIS SAY ON HOW THOSE SCUMB BAGS TREATED HIM WITH THEIR WITCH HUNT!


:toast: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[chookie]

21. Fuck Peter Jennings

I used to like him.

Oh -- so he's going to be a tough guy and bring up something "touchy" with Bill Clinton eh? Ooooooo, Peter, you're sooooo tough!

But when he interviewed Karl Rove during the RNC, Peter just sat there and smiled and nodded at whatever Karl said, which was, at least, controversial at best, or what more direct people would call lies.

He's too afraid to ask Mr Rove anything, but he thinks he man enough to go after Bill with something as inappropriate as this?

That was the last straw, Peter. Maybe we should have an ABC Special on *your* former alcohol and womanizing problems and see how well you stand up under scrutiny....

No credibility any more. You had it. You sold it.

[Algorem]

22. Peter Jerkings had no comeback. Nothing.No shame evident either.

Wierd how young Clinton looked when he was saying that.

[AmerDem]

23. missed it...get the clip

anyone have the clip online?

[gauguin57]

24. Every last one of these network/cable f*ckers has drunk the damned

Repuglican Kool-Aid on orders of their mega-corporate bosses.

They lie, lie, lie, leave out pertinent facts, and then lie some more.

It's about time Big Dog set the record straight.

[davidwparker]

29. And, that includes C-SPAN's Washington Journal, too.

http://tvnewslies.org/html/c-span_deception.html

I was just reading this and was looking for how to create a new thread. This thread seemed apropos. Brian Lamb's Washington Journal is guilty of it too. They skew the conversation 50-50 predictably, rather than allowing Republicans to call in a criticize Bush.

What's interesting, is the end of the post saying how there is a manipulation by those who are really in control. After all the manipulation of the polling machines and disenfranchisement, that, if he were interested in pursuing the truth, would still win.

This is my only explanation. It's odd that someone walked away in the midst of shouts of fraud.

[wndycty]

25. Can a brother get a link?

To some streaming video?

[n2mark]

26. Hopefully

the rest of the Democratic Party follows suit. Fire back dems.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

27. WOW! Gawd I miss that man...

He always did have a way of saying the right thing at the right time. That should teach Jennings a thing or two about letting sleeping Dawg's lie.

[Catherine Vincent]

28. That's my dog!

He was great wasn't he? I love that man!

[powergirl]

30. BIG DAWG BITCH SLAPPED JENNINGS!

Clinton was great. He said all that needed to be said in 3 sentences. The "liberal media" treated Clinton like garbage during the impeachment. I can't believe Peter just sat there with is stupid man tan make up on.

[bac511]

32. HE ROCKED ASS!!!!!!!!!!!

God, that man is a fuckin ROCK STAR!!! And I got my pic taken with him when visiting the White House... I swear I am sleeping with that picture frame tonight...!!!

[lynintenn]

43. I sent an email to Primetime

telling them that Bill Clinton told the truth when he said the media didn't do their jobs.

[wicket]

33. My President is Bill Clinton!!!!

We love you Bubba!!!! :grouphug:

[TryingToWarnYou]

35. What Clinton said:

No other president ever had to endure someone like Ken Starr inviting innocent people, because they wouldn't lie, in a systematic way, and having respectable news outlets treat them like they were serious, and parroting everything they leaked. No one ever had to try to save people from ethnic cleansing in the Balkans, and people in Haiti from a military dictator that was murdering them, and all the other problems I dealt with, while every day, an entire apparatus was devoted to destroying him. And still, not any example of where I ever disgraced this country publicly. I made a terrible public-personal mistake, but I paid for it, many times over. And in spite of it all, you don't have any example where I ever lied to the American people about my job, where I ever let the American people down, and I had more support from the world, and world leaders, and people around the world, when I quit than when I started.

And that my friends is how you tell a smarmy, Bush ass kissing sycophant where the fuck to get off.

[JPace]

36. The simple truth...all facts and said with grace.

Clinton was a real President of the people. The repugs tried
to destroy him but he rises above all of them, whole, dignified
and most of all adored by us all.

[mcscajun]

37. Thanks for posting the detailed quote. :)

I never, ever, ever(!) watch anything on the Disney Channel...oh, I'm sorry...ABC. Yeah...like there's a difference.

Glad to see Clinton bitch-slapped that toad Jennings, too.

[donheld]

38. Long live Bill Clinton

:yourock:

[Cadence]

39. That was great!

I love Bill Clinton. When I see him speak like he did tonight, he reminds me how he never stops thinking of ways to help people. In his heart and soul that is what he is about. You can see it and hear it in everything he says. I absolutely HATE how these republican mind fucks and their ridiculous agenda spent all of their energy during his last term thinking of nothing other than smearing him. I hold the media accountable for, just like he said, repeating every little smear they could throw like it was part of their religion. So here is this legacy of his which I think is remarkable especially considering how hard they fought him at every turn, but here it is so wrapped in scandal that it's hard to have an intelligent conversation with some people about it like every good thing he did is so wrapped in shame we can't even talk about it. In the meantime these hypocrites who say they are religious who their divisive agenda's of hate and destruction act sanctimonious and above reproach. It's mind boggling. Sometimes it makes me feel so hopeless... like the good people of the world that really want to make a change can't win.
:cry:

[grasswire]

44. they hate him because....

...he is the embodiment of the American dream. A poor boy, from the most humble and broken home, became the leader (the TRUE leader) of the world through his own work to improve himself. He didn't inherit the position. He earned it, from the bottom to the top.

Billions of people the world over love him. He's the very image of Christ in his peacemaking and respect for all humanity.

That's why they hate him. He's genuine, and he survived.

[clydefrand]

40. I love it, too! Go BIG DOG, GO!

Wish I had a tape of that show.

[Gyre]

41. Oooh! I'm getting moist.

Love that male aggression!

42. He left Jennings speechless...I actually had chills, I was so proud. n/t
