LET THEM INVESTIGATE: The Republicans are dumb and paranoid to try and stop a full-fledged investigation into the intelligence findings that provided the basis for one of the main arguments for the war against Saddam. It’s important that any flaws in intelligence are fully explored; and any hype that might have been added to the data should be fully exposed and examined. If the administration has nothing to hide – and I doubt it has – let the light in. These Republicans are acting like, er, well, the Clintons.
HILLARY’S DIARY: Private Eye, the British satire magazine, has the scoop:
Bill Clinton and I started a conversation in the spring of 1971. It began when I said “Put it away!” and he replied, “Sorry, honey.” I just loved the way he looked so full of shame. More than 30 years later, we’re still having that same conversation.
Would we throw it all away? Bill still had that infectious optimism I had been so attracted by all those years ago. But if I gave it one hundred per cent, that was something I could knock on the head.
Bill had betrayed the trust in our marriage. As his wife, I wanted to wring Bill’s neck. But he was not only my husband, he was also my President. I would have to go deep inside myself and my faith to discover any remaining belief in our marriage, to find some path to understanding. After a long, hard search, we found that abiding agreement, and we felt able to sign it in the presence of our lawyers.
It gets better.
