E. J. Dionne Jr. - Why Bill Clinton Pushed Back - washingtonpost.com:

Bill Clinton's eruption on 'Fox News Sunday' last weekend over questions about his administration's handling of terrorism was a long time coming and has political implications that go beyond this fall's elections.

By choosing to intervene in the terror debate in a way that no one could miss, Clinton forced an argument about the past that had up to now been largely a one-sided propaganda war waged by the right. The conservative movement understands the political value of controlling the interpretation of history. Now its control is finally being contested.
