The Culpability of William Jefferson Clinton

lest we forget

After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six and injured 1,000, President Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

Perhaps if Clinton had kept his promise, an estimated 7,000 people would be alive today.

In 1996 the government of Sudan had Osama bin Laden in their custody and offered to hand him over to the United States. Bill Clinton and his liberal cohorts elected not to take the Sudanese up on their offer. Why? Because they couldn't figure out a legal means of trying him! But Clinton sure knew how to argue the meaning of is!

I trust you to keep it "archived" for us! That last photo of purple-nose is quite telling. Bet he doesn't live too much longer.

Here are a few self-idolizing gems.

It is kind of hard for me to get used to a president younger than I am ...

Thank you Dean Gallucci for helping me to come here and for the great work you did in our administration when I was president.

people here who are my classmates, friends, who served as ambassadors and in other positions in my administration

(The Great Carnac at work here) All of them are sitting there thinking that ...

I was commander-in-chief of the people who show up and work everyday at the Pentagon.

Major gag alert here: The people who died represent, in my view, not only the best of America, but the best of the world that I worked hard for eight years to build.

Major whopper alert: I will just give you one example from my childhood. In the Civil War, General Sherman waged a brilliant military campaign to cut through the South and go to Atlanta. It was significant and very helpful in bringing the Civil War to a close in a way to, thank God, save the Union. On the way, General Sherman practiced a relatively mild form of terrorism-he did not kill civilians, but he burned all the farms and then he burned Atlanta, trying to break the spirit of the Confederates. It had nothing whatever to do with winning the Civil War, but it was a story that was told for a hundred years later, and prevented America from coming together as we might otherwise have done. -- Two for one here: he says he grew up during the Civil War and then goes a step beyond any border of logic and says that Sherman's March to the Sea, which was intended to break the spirit of the Confederates, had NOTHING to do with winning the war.

I love that photo of clinton in #11. He looks so completely irrelevant and useless. And he obviously hates every moment of feeling that way. Sorry, it's all I can do to stop myself from gloating.

Thank you for the summary. We should NEVER forget the culpability of WJC. And I STILL think he looked and sounded stoned during that speech. He is insufferable. My husband, who has some knowledge in the field, believes that Billy Jeff is likely a megalomaniac.

That's one creepy picture...
