From a reader:
Dear Jonah, Clinton claimed that some republicans were accusing him of being obssesed with OBL while he was in his office. I just simply dont recall anybody accuisng him of that, do you remember anyone?
Me: I have no memory of any such thing whatsoever. Anybody else? Update: A quick — and therefore imperfect — Nexis-Lexis search finds not a single story from 1998-2000 mentioning Bin Laden in which “Clinton” and “Obsessed” appear in the same sentence, except those mentioning “sex-obsessed” or obsession with his own legacy. None talk about obsession with Bin Laden, in other words.
