ROTTERDAM, The Netherlands -- Former U.S. President Bill Clinton says he had plans in the early 1990s to attack and destroy North Korea's nuclear facilities after the secretive communist state was found to be producing weapons-grade plutonium.

At the time, he said, North Korea had plans to produce between six and eight nuclear weapons per year.

Oh Gawd, another "I had a plan." Has he spewed his "we worked harder on this then anything" crap yet?

What is it about Democraps that they "had a plan" or "have a plan" about everything -- think Carter, Clinton, and Kerry -- but never actually do anything? Oh, that's right, they're just lying out their assess...

"I despise Clinton, but stateside politics cannot trump actual history. Clinton and Perry had the plan. Okinawa and US bases on the mainland of Japan, were getting into position."

What part of "plans without even an attempt at actual execution are worthless" do you not understand?

Pretty certain the US armed forces and CIA are capable of doing both. Aren't you?

I've had plans to become a millionaire. I just haven't done it yet.

... and I've got plans to win the Nobel Prize and marry Queen Elizabeth, I just haven't done it yet.

The only trigger Clinton ever pulled was his own. Usually aimed at the sink in the Oval office.

He is without doubt the most lying sack of crap to ever hold public office.

JIMMY CARTER: Judy, I'm convinced. But I said this when I got back from North Korea, and people said that I was naive or gullible and so forth. I don't think I was. In my opinion, this was one of those perfect agreements (and it was, for the Norks --ed.) where both sides won and got what they wanted and there were no-nobody blinked, nobody had to yield.... I think the most important lesson is that we should not ever avoid direct talks, direct conversations, direct discussions and negotiations with the main person in a despised or misunderstood or condemned society who could actually resolve the issue. And we went through this for ten years when nobody in our government would meet or talk to Yasir Arafat. The Norwegians did, and they were the ones that brought the peace agreement last summer (which has held up so well --ed.) ....

Is Carter the reincarnation of "Peace in Our Time" Chamberlain, or an actual Manchurian candidate? It has to be one or the other. Nobody can really be this damn stupid, can they?

And this, boys and girls, is why we absolutely cannot let the Democraps win in November...

I am certain that both could have been completed and verified. Before lunch.

There once was a Prez'dent who had plans,
To rid the world of various bums,
Instead, he brought some dames,
To play in his Hanes,
And plans soon turned into scams!

U.S. Aid Helps N. Korea Build Nukes, Congress Told (Flashback)

(snip)
But an aid policy initiated by the Clinton administration in the mid-1990s to finance two light water nuclear reactors in North Korea puts the isolated communist country on the fast track in the manufacture of nuclear weapons, William R. Graham and Victor Gilinsky told members of the House Policy Committee.

A war was expected at any time. It was expected to be nuclear and last about three weeks. Probably most people in the US say 'no way', but it was coming close. Clinton or no Clinton.

Was that before or after the 500-mile meteorite was supposed to hit earth?
Triggered by Elvis, of course.

Of course he did.

He was also going to cure cancer, increase the economy to insane levels, give away free cars and wipe out world wide poverty. If it wasn't for those evil republican congressmen, his wife would have done it all! (He was busy tutoring a young intern)

The only thing that surpasses Clinton's media whore desires is his buck fever.

A big part of the Toon's legacy is at least one press release per day.

Now I know where Kerry got his expression for his "plans" to

Kerry's plans are in his web site, where he also tells us that he served in Vietnam...
