It was an angry -- at last -- yet calm and philosophical Bill Clinton
"I don't wake up in the morning hating Kenneth Starr. I wake up in the morning feeling sorry for people who believe they are in possession of the whole truth... And I think you should, too," President Bill Clinton told a large crowd tonight after the premiere of The Hunting of the President. "If you want to be forgiven, you have to extend forgiveness, even to people who aren't smart enough to ask for it."

...the "anti-government movement" and the religious right "thought they had found a permanent way of holding onto the White House by characterizing the Democrats as weak elitists... And we helped them, frankly. Our party made a lot of mistakes." He said the right considered Carter's victory in 1976 "an aberrational result of Watergate" and that the "anti-government-values crowd basically believes that the most important thing to do is to have the right people in power and concentrate power in their hands...."
