The bit about the “international court on war criminals” and Kyoto was dishonest, given that his administration was not much more interested in American participation in either. Ditto the bit about the Bush administration’s “withholding promised funding” for education, which is a very common Democratic talking point with almost no basis in fact.

Does anyone know whether the drop in crime stopped after Clinton left office, as he implied, or whether gang violence is increasing, as he said?
