"Who to believe? The man disbarred from the practice of law because of perjury, or Condi Rice?" You mean Condi "Mushroom Clouds" Rice? That paragon of credibility?

"What we did in the eight months was at least as aggressive as what the Clinton administration did in the preceding years." Umm, right. Which is why, when handed a PDB about bin Laden wanting to strike deeply into the US they did... nothing. What a whirlwind of activity!

re: "What we did in the eight months was at least as aggressive as what the Clinton administration did in the preceding years." What did you expect them to say "we thought terrorism wasn't a big deal " <the truth>? Note she didn't give specifics... Clinton did.

In response to Clinton's claim that the Bush Administration did nothing to try and get Bin Laden, Rice shot back: "The notion somehow for eight months the Bush administration sat there and didn't do that is just flatly false and I think the 9/11 commission understood that. What we did in the eight months was at least as aggressive as what the Clinton administration did in the preceding years." OK .. so now we have two sides to THAT story. Who to believe? The man disbarred from the practice of law because of perjury, or Condi Rice? LOL. Yeah, we believe Condi Rice because she's a disinterested third party. Nice try, though.
