Keith goes after Fox and the Repugs for the shite surrounding Mr. Bill's interview
(At that link, you can either read the transcript or watch the clip.)
God, I love listening to this guy. Not only is he saying everything I wish I could say, he's doing it on national television. Hell, he calls Bush a coward point-blank. Plain-speaking and relentless.
And am I loving Bill Clinton just now? You bet your ass I am. I've always liked him, he was a wonderful president, and the shit that's been said about him by these asswipe troglodytes has always pissed me off. So to hear him finally say all the things he must have been thinking for nearly ten years now is unbelievably cathartic. (Just imagine how it must feel for him!)
And he was so eloquent and precise even in that moment of anger. It was embarrassing, frankly, to listen to this man and compare him with the friggin' baboon that's in the White House now, who can barely hold a sentence together and actually believes he's god-chosen. The same thing happened when I watched Spain's President Aznar on a Spanish talk show a couple of years ago - I wanted to melt into a little puddle of shame at how intelligent, knowledgable and erudite that man was, and at the realization of how our country must look to the world, with such a deluded moron at our head. It's...just too painful.
So don't believe fuck-all about the whole "Clinton explodes!" bullshit. He was focused, intense and given a chance to call those Fox assholes on their bullshit, he took it with both hands and was spectacular. I hope you can watch that clip, because the transcript, as good as it is, just doesn't get across the experience of watching him go off on his detractors.
I do so miss that man.
