He destroyed the military both equipment wise and moral wise.  He violated human rights by taking election money from china and in turn giving them nuke tech.  He sponsored a non UN sanctioned no fly zone over country and routinely attacked them and dropped bombs.  He sent cruise missiles all over creation trying to make it look like he was doing something.  His personal matters gave bin laden the go ahead to move into the final stages of his attack plans because bubba did not want to be accused of "wag the dog."  So, you guys trivialize his "blowjob" and make jokes, but that probably single handed gave the green light to bin laden for 9/11.

Funny how the celebs who are protesting the olympics in China were the same ones who support clinton.

"Berger ambled down the stairwell and entered the Sit Room. He picked up the phone at one of the busy controller consoles and called the president. Amazingly, President Clinton was not available. Berger tried again and again. Bin Laden was within striking distance. The window of opportunity was closing fast. The plan of attack was set and the Tomahawk crews were ready. For about an hour Berger couldn’t get the commander in chief on the line. Though the president was always accompanied by military aides and the Secret Service, he was somehow unavailable. Berger stalked the Sit Room, anxious and impatient."
Wow.  Unavailable for a whole hour.  I bet that's never happened to any other president.

"This lost bin Laden hit typified the Clinton administration’s ambivalent, indecisive way of dealing with terrorism. Ideologically, the Clinton administration was committed to the idea that most terrorists were misunderstood, had legitimate grievances, and could be appeased, which is why such military action as the administration authorized was so halfhearted, and ineffective, and designed more for “show” than for honestly eliminating a threat."
Whereas Bush's military force approach has worked so well.

You'll note that Saddam got rid of his weapons long before he was invaded.  That is: assuming Clinton was right about the weapons existing, non-military options worked (or, perhaps more accurately, those that didn't use direct miltary force).

Sources?  You need sources to tell you he launched cruise missiles?  Did your memory escape you or did you just get a TV?

Alright, I did some research of my own on this.  Robert Buzz Patterson is a member of Move America Forward - a prowar lobby group.  I can't say I trust much coming from a guy with that agenda.

At the same time though, I'm not saying I'm a big fan of Clinton either, I just choose not to side with hawks like yourself.

He left office long before 2003, genius.

And as I said, he could have been wrong.

Edit:  I assume the karma was you?

If so, it only proves that he was delusional, not that the invasion was justified.

Except that all those involved in inspections knew he didn't.  And others.


Seriously, though, what does it say about the US if their intelligence agencies are as gullible as Saddam Hussein?  Moreso, even, given that they aren't in an information vacuum being fed date solely by those who want to decieve.  At least, you'd hope that isn't the case.

The Republicans rightly called bullshit when Clinton lobbied for invading Iraq in the late 90s.  Some of the Democrats did the same in the lead up to the Iraq War when Bush was the warmonger.

Either way, the party that is in power always likes to flex its muscles, and that's probably one of the worst things about our government.  It's like what Elbridge Gerry once said about a large standing army...

"A standing army is like a tumescent penis--an excellent assurance of domestic tranquility, but a dangerous temptation to foreign adventure."

If anything, the invasion of Iraq and our aggressive foreign policy in general is a sure sign that the size of our military makes it psychologically easier for us to justify war.  We should know by now that this eagerness for war only hurts us in the long run.

they didnt know shit, bubs, they suspected he didnt.  but, when you have an administration that wants to goto war, you dont need the proof.  the iraqi government's actions in the lead up to the inspections were enough.

Well they seemed pretty certain, and they were right.  I suppose we could get into an argument on the definition of truth, but those just get annoying real quick.

As I see it, this discussion is about whether they made up the evidence.

Yes, how dare they not cave in to the demands of a bigger country.  That's almost as bad as not giving your money to someone bigger than you on the street.
