Clinton and Iraq

Most on the right are in a fit over President Clinton's comments yesterday (by the way, the right calls him Bill Clinton, they usually refuse to attach the President prefix). My feeling after reading the story was that Clinton's main beef is with the post occupation. You know, the total disregard to how we would secure the peace as an occupying force. As I have found out, regime change was on the table since 1999 so it cannot be said Clinton would not have eventually removed Hussein from power. He simply thinks we should have been better prepared. My God what blasphemy.

Americanlogic bullets-

-This week's word is "irresponsible," as in the Democrats are irresponsible for any discussion on Iraq, meaning resume your prewar position in the corner.

-You have to hand it to Cheney, he is unapologetic about his role in this government. He stands for secrecy and torture and is proud of it.

-The Woodward revelation only confirms one thing in my mind: he's in bed with this administration. He should not have waited this long to come forward. We are dealing with a national security issue not an office break in.

-Rep Murtha, a democratic hawk, just proposed immediate withdrawl from Iraq. Despite what the generals want, this might be happening real soon.
