President Clinton''s stand against Iraq was of critical significance and established an important principle for the 21st Century He suggests that today''s generation is no more aware of the historical implication of Bill Clinton''s decision than his generation was of Harry Truman''s in 1950 The Clinton Doctrine essentially is a response to the threat of WMD and a statement of the willingness of the United States "to shoulder the principal responsibility for their containment" While the United States, ideally, would prefer to contain WMD with the aid of multinational organizations, "the United States will act alone if necessary" In closing, Trainor suggests that the President''s legacy "will not be *** and scandal, rather it will be the Clinton Doctrine "

Oh, he''ll also be remembered for *** and scandal too.

Just taken on its own terms, this paragraph is both internally inconsistent and ambiguously worded. First, it cannot be true both that the Sudanese arranged contacts between Iraq and bin Laden and that no "ties existed between al Qaeda and Iraq." If the first proposition is so, then the "[t]wo senior Bin Laden associates" who are the sources of the second are either lying or misinformed.

SO DANCE LIB, ILL DANCE TOO!

And the CIA and the 911 commission admited there was Alqueda in IRAQ before 911. OR does your lib sources say there all lies! NOW DANCE FOR ME LIB!!

That is an outright lie.

The 16 agencies that made up the NIE - one of which is the CIA - said that al Qaeda HAD NO AFFILIATION with Iraq before the war.

And the 9/11 commission concluded that there WAS NO CONNECTION between the two:

You weaken your already weak argument, by trying to bolster it with easily disprovable lies.
You''re a proven liar, spewing lies to try and support your already weak position.

That has nothing to do with America - that is a matter between Iraq and Israel. If someone needed to intervene, then it should have been the UN. America should never have invaded Iraq - especially considering that Bush KNEW that Iraq didn''''t have WMD''''s.

100% correct. Saddam Hussein hated Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda and the feeling was mutual. The very idea that they would have collaborated on anything is laughable and shows the lack of intelligence of anyone who thinks they would.

You are indeed a clown. Ever read the Clinton Doctrine? Every one of the Dimnowits approved of it.

So what country did Clinton invade without a legitimate reason?

I wonder too, if Bush was the president in 1941, if he would have attacked Iraq in retaliation for Pearl Harbor the way he attacked Iraq in retaliation for 9/11?

Posted by hungry1968 at 11:13 AM : Mar 28, 2008

Naw, he would have invaded China because he''d figure all Asians are exactly alike just like he didn''t know there were different kinds of Muslims.

More stupidity. The axis were Italy, Germany, and Japan.

Once we were attacked on December 7, 1941, we were involved. Do you have ANY CLUE as to what you''re talking about?

Good night lady. You need to put yourself in a clinic and recoup what''''s left of your brain matter. Sadaam was highly supportive of terrorism. How about those $10,000 contributions to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. It was only a matter of time where he''''d upgrade. But you continue to live in your little Dinnowit world where BUSH DERANGEMENT SYNDROME looms. Good grief, what a lackey.

Posted by mudrose at 11:00 AM : Mar 28, 2008





That was $25,000 per suicide bomber, for the families of the suicide bombers that blew themselves up in ISRAEL.

That has nothing to do with America - that is a matter between Iraq and Israel. If someone needed to intervene, then it should have been the UN. America should never have invaded Iraq - especially considering that Bush KNEW that Iraq didn''t have WMD''s.

The fictional "al Qaeda in Iraq" won''t fly planes into buildings, because they didn''t exist until we invaded Iraq.

They were created to fight the occupation of American forces in Iraq - they have nothing to do with global terrorism.

Man-o-live are you people stupid!!

n an interview on CNN''''s American Morning on March 5, 2008, Clinton said, "I helped to bring peace to Northern Ireland. I negotiated open borders to let fleeing refugees into safety from Kosovo. I''''ve been standing up against ... the Chinese government over women''''s rights and standing up for human rights." http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/
statements/392/

Yep. I was in Ireland myself in 1994 and again in 1999, besides visiting a lot of sites and strolling through some parks, I can''''t claim much else...say--wait a minute!! I bought lots of souvineers while I was there. I think I will claim that I helped to make Ireland economically solvent and helped to end their recession. Yep. LMAO

That''''s why Osama keeps trying to recruit his disposable army into Iraq because they are all in Afghanistan. How about thinking for yourself for a change instead of Dimnowit talking points. Ugh!

Posted by mudrose at 10:41 AM : Mar 28, 2008





Bin Laden has nothing to do with Iraq. He never has, and to this day he still doesn''t.

The fictional "al Qaeda in Iraq" is nothing but a group of insurgents that said they believe in bin Laden''s philosophy of "destroy the American and Israeli infidels". There is NO connection between al Qaeda and al Qaeda in Iraq.

Look it up - it''s a proven fact. How about actually LEARNING about the issues, instead of quoting Bush?

How did you become smarter than the commanders fighting the war? Did your Media tell you that? THINK LIB. Now dance for me lib!

Posted by Hillarygrl34 at 10:38 AM : Mar 28, 2008




Which commanders are those? The ones that were fired for not supporting the Bush administration''s position? Exactly how many "commanders on the ground" does that make now that were fired for not toting the party line - 10? 12?

Unfortunately, the terrorists that attacked us AREN''''T IN IRAQ!!

They''''re still in Afghanistan, re-arming, re-building, and re-planning their next attack on America. And our military can''''t do anything about it, because they''''re mired down in Iraq, chasing folly.
