You don’t say
Clinton apparently has said he will not be doing a talk show. Really? You don’t say? He’s not going to open himself up to a forum in which people might ask him questions, such as:
What were you thinking when you pardoned Marc Rich?
Why did your wife’s law firm records disappear and show up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?
Why didn’t you enforce weapons inspections against Iraq?
Why did you order the military to bomb an aspirin factory?
Why did you lie to Jim Lehrer and the American people?
Why did you cheat on your wife (oh, never mind we’ve seen her)?
What was that Whitewater nonsense all about?
Why did you sign into law the highest tax increases in the US since WWII?
Ad infinitum.
Of course, Bush won’t do one either for the same sense of accountability he may be held to. I do have to give Jimmy Carter props for releasing his documents to the public early. Other presidents won’t do it. Carter, the greatest ex-president ever. Too bad he didn’t do that good a job in office.
