The United States made a "big mistake" when it invaded Iraq, former President Bill Clinton said Wednesday,
That's stupid...scottyz said:Maybe you guys should have him arrested for treason.
DeeJayH said:what the hell happened to previous presidents NOT attacking their successors
guess Clinton will do whatever he has to, to get another 8 years in the White House, although he will be the first First Husband

liberal1 said:I guess once your done being President, you forfeit your right to speak out about anything. Yeah that makes complete sense.
Don't worry about what they're saying...They have no clue about etiquette...DeeJayH said:it is customary for the former pres to STFU once out of office
Bush Sr didnt attack Clinton
Just Kosovo.Old and wise said:... but at least he didn't start any wars on 'faulty intelligence'.
Don't forget what happens when you half-heartedly support the military, then leave them left to hang...Diogenes said:Just Kosovo.
Good thing that HW Bush never attacked Clinton.....wait a second. He did attack Clinton once Clinton was in office.DeeJayH said:what the hell happened to previous presidents NOT attacking their successors

Follow the link for more of 'em too.-- In an appearance at a San Antonio grade school on Oct. 13, 1993, Bush expressed concern that the humanitarian mission to Somalia that he had launched nearly a year earlier was being "messed up" by the Clinton administration. "If you're going to put somebody else's son or daughter into harm's way, into battle, you've got to know the answer to three questions," Bush told the students. He said the president has to know what the mission is, "how they are going to do it," and "how they're going to get out of there." Several news reports noted that Bush's comments appeared to violate his earlier pledge not to publicly criticize Clinton during his first year in office. (The New York Times, 10/14/93; The Boston Globe, 10/23/93)
-- In an interview published in the February 1994 issue of Washingtonian magazine, Bush criticized the Clinton administration's purported lack of a "general strategy" in the foreign policy arena and the "start-and-stop" failures it had exhibited. Bush pointed to the Clinton administration's handling of the situation in Haiti as an example and also criticized Clinton for his policy toward Bosnia:
"The specific point of difference I'd make with the current administration, however, is that when you send a US ship loaded with military personnel to go ashore, you don't say, 'They're going ashore' unless you mean it. And you don't get turned back by a group of thugs standing on the dock.
"What that does -- starting and stopping -- is weaken the image of the United States as a strong, resolute leader. It was devastating, sent a horrible signal, when that troop ship was turned back -- a signal not just to Latin America, but to Europe and elsewhere. Where I find most fault in the Clinton foreign policy, the area where I find room for criticism, is this pattern of start-and-stop, start-and-stop.
alphieb said:Obviously, Clinton feels that way. Did you see him invading Iraq. Bush had that on his agenda prior to 9/11 as 9/11 has NOTHING to do with this invasion. We should be looking hot and heavy for the man responsible for 9/11 bin laden. But it appears that we are not. Instead we are wasting tons of lifes and Money in iraq.

DeeJayH said:misleading
the military, and therefor its commander-in-chief, have war plans on how to invade every country on the face of the earth
so to say it was on his agenda is bunk
danarhea said:When will we ever learn not to vote for shady politicians?
No, but since Bush has blamed Clinton for a lot of things (rightly or wrongly), after a while, it's hard to respect someone who would just take it.DeeJayH said:interesting
but does two wrongs make a right?

alphieb said:What is the commander-in-chief's plan on finding bin laden?
they get run out of politics by the shady ones very quickly, early on in their careerakyron said:Is there a non-shady species?
alphieb said:Yeah, Bush has been blaming all his faults on Clinton even though here it is 2005. Clinton has not been in office for over six years. "The economy is not Bush's fault, of course it is Clinton's"
Perhaps one day science will be able to create one.akyron said:Is there a non-shady species?
DeeJayH said:just because the US does not have 1,000,000 soldiers in the Pakistan/Afghanistan border region, does not mean we are not atively looking for him.
we are.
we just are not following the Soviets mistakes of applying too much man power in the region.
Bin Laden has been neutralized, and is on the run/hiding in a cave
put aside your need for instant gratification and you will see things are being done
has all been done flawlessly? NO, but what military campaign ever has
