I think most everyone appreciates the dynamic personality of Bill Clinton. He was able to motivate people and even persuade politicians to support his efforts. Sure, he was responsible for some terrible legislation...NAFTA being just one of them. But he also had his eye on the ball, and he got things done. I think the thing I love the most about this President is that he didn't take shit from fox-propaganda network at all. He stopped this slimy little turd in his tracks when he started with his agenda in this interview.

Kudos to Bill. We have others who won't take their shit and distortion of reality, but they are damned few and far between; and none better than Bill.
