Any answer to a question about the invasion of Iraq that begins with
Afghanistan is not reasonable. Thomas was trying to get him to
actually answer the question she asked.

Helen Thomas should simply ask her question and shut up. If she
doesn't like the answer she should wait to be called on again -- or
she should simply dispute his answer in print. She was unacceptably
rude, and is clearly no longer a journalist, but rather an ideologue
of the Left, and a spokesperson for the DNC. And, by the way, Bush
didn't start his answer with Afghanistan -- but if you didn't like his
answer, too bad. Unfortunately, Helen Thomas hardly let him get a word
in edgewise. If Clinton had been treated as rudely you would have been
furious, and I would have had to agree with you.



No way. Clinton answered the questions that were asked
(excluding Monica, which I'm sure some people still count on
despite what's happened in the current administration). If he
couldn't answer, he'd say why he couldn't. He wouldn't just
spin off into something unrelated to the question.
