The Clintons and Gore always do this; they always try to revise the past (where they didn't look so good) with blatent lies that are meant to give the impression that they were wise, forward-looking, and great. Never mind anyone can easily look up what they actually did in the past, doesn't stop them from casually lying about it to make themselves seem smarter than they actually are.
This reminds me about how he complained that nothing big like 9/11 happened during his term as president

Clinton: I Would Have Attacked Bin LadenEx-president Bill Clinton now says he would have taken out Osama bin Laden before the 9/11 attacks – if only the FBI and CIA had been able to prove the al-Qaida mastermind was behind the attack on the U.S.S. Cole.
"I desperately wish that I had been president when the FBI and CIA finally confirmed, officially, that bin Laden was responsible for the attack on the U.S.S. Cole," Clinton tells New York magazine this week. "Then we could have launched an attack on Afghanistan early."
"I don’t know if it would have prevented 9/11," he added. "But it certainly would have complicated it.”
Despite his failure to launch such an attack, Clinton said he saw the danger posed by bin Laden much more clearly than did President Bush.
"I always thought that bin Laden was a bigger threat than the Bush administration did," he told New York magazine.
