Telegraph UK: Clinton rages against Dimbleby in Panorama confrontation over Lewinsky

<snip>
The former American president, famed for his amiable disposition, becomes visibly angry and rattled, particularly when Dimbleby asks him whether his publicly declared contrition over the affair is genuine.

His outrage at the line of questioning during the 50-minute interview, to be broadcast on Panorama on Tuesday night, lasts several minutes. It is the first time that the former President has been seen to lose his temper publicly over the issue of his sexual liaisons with Ms Lewinsky.

The President initially responds to Dimbleby's questions by launching a general attack on media intrusion. When the broadcaster persists with the question of whether the politician was truly penitent, Clinton directs his anger towards Dimbleby.

I can't say I blame him a bit - what the f*ck gives Dimbleby the right to question whether President Clinton is sincere in his contrition?

3. He needs to "rage" @the RW here!

I think President Clinton is probably the greatest President that I will see in my life time and yet when I read stories on him having interveiw with Dan Rathers, and as Dan Rathers put it ,people will be surprised at how supportive of bush he is . It makes my blood boil, as smart as Clinton is does he not realize that bush is part of the same group that tried and tried for a decade and still going to ruin him in anyway they could .Its good to know who your real friends are ,any bush is not one of them !

[I thought so.]

5. Why?

He beat them. Sometime you should read about politics. Former Presidents never criticize their sucessers.

[I thought so.]

7. Clinton is so dumb,

that he can't understand that. He just never knew that his enemies were out to destroy him.

Please read his book before you say so.

Clinton can only applaud as Bush farts and stumbles falling to the floor.

He need not say so.

We are the audience. Bush? Who would applaud him?

4. I support Bill Clinton 100% on this one.

He's taken enough. We can't move on as a nation until the Right-wing stop flogging him. So much for Christian forgiveness.

[I thought so.]

6. Oh and the Telegraph,

shit paper. Find who owns it.
