“…you’ve adopted values of the D-emocratic platform your party said were wrong.”

A Democratic platform but NOT the platform of the U.S. Democratic party.

“Imagine running a war with clear goals or a defined exit strategy – where have I heard that before?”

Vietnam…althought LBJ was running the war at the time and the objective tend to get lost as he personally chose targets to bomb.

“He says Clinton was doing this, but Rumsfeld and bush are truly the masters.”

I have talked to my friends and family in the military and that have always been clear about their mission. I love to hear the liberal BS about the mission is “unclear”. This type of rhetoric is EXACTLY why most soldiers are fed up with the libs trying to undermine their efforts. Pathetic.

BTW Clinton has never sent troops into any conflict with a clear objective, evidenced by the fact that U.S. troops are STILL in the former Yugoslavia, 10 years after it all began. Other than that it was all about bombing asprin factories in order to divert attention away from his personal problems. What did sending troops to Haiti accomplish other than returning to power a corrupt president that the people wanted out?

It wasn’t a military reason for Clinton.

There weren’t too many U.S. liberals chomping at the bit to “save” the Jews from Hitler so do even go there…

First, you would not have to leveled the entire city in order to provided close air support. However that helicopters couldn’t fly effective cover because their altitude subjected them to fire themselves. The AC-130s would have been able to provide ACCURATE fire in order to provide cover for the humvee convoys that were attempting to exit the city without being in range of AAA or small arms fire.

Second if you, Bill Clinton, are not willing to provide ALL the support for the troops you can you shouldn’t have sent them in the first place to get slaughtered. The fact that you DENIED the aircover to your own troops in order not to have civilian casualties be televised all over the world for POLITICALLY CORRECT reasons, not humanitarian as you suggest, makes the U.S. soldiers deaths in Somolia all in vain.

“Bush called off the original offensive and resumed it a week after the election, letting the situation seethe for months.”

Regardless of when the offensive took place wouldn’t have made a difference in the 2004 election…at all.

no wonder the US is the most hated country in the world, even god hates you lot. why dont you imigrate to Mars or someplace that other humans dont have the misfortunes of seeing you people.

“If there were such things as hormones, they would have mentioned them in the Bible” – I am paraphrasing, but that is so funny… I’ll bet there’s some poor shmo out there agreeing with him!

Humanitarian reasons: Not leveling an entire city with a massive gunship, and using close air support helicopters instead. The only reason for doing this is to spare innocent lives.

Political reasons: Not invading Fallujah until after the 2004 elections. Bush called off the original offensive and resumed it a week after the election, letting the situation seethe for months. The only reason to do this was to not have carnage on TV hurt his chances of reelection.

“That’s right, when 18 soldiers died for lack of armor, Clinton fired his secretary of defense and pulled out of what would have been an unwinnable war.”

Lack of armor and no close air support especially C-130 Spectre gunships that were not allowed to engage because of political reasons.

OK, internal disputes….Rwanda??? Darfur/Sudan?

“As recently as 1997, only one percent of unmarried persons had experienced a sexual encounter.

I derived this figure from an informal survey of my friends, family, and neighbors, and I consider them to be very representative of society on the whole.”

That’s right, when 18 soldiers died for lack of armor, Clinton fired his secretary of defense and pulled out of what would have been an unwinnable war. I guess the heartland doesn’t respect such weakness, they want a real man for president willing to stick it out even after 2,500 dead soldiers.

I thought 9/11 taught us a lesson about funding murderous SOBs to fight other murderous SOBs.

This administration is just the tip of the iceburg, and they know there’s nothing that can be done about it. “This is the end… beautiful friend”.
