Bill Clinton as NATO Chief?

"One of Norway’s most highly profiled and right-wing politicians, Carl I. Hagen, is urging the nomination of former U.S. President Bill Clinton as new NATO boss," reported Norway’s Aftenposten on June 17th. Hagen, head of Norway’s Progress Party, insists that "NATO’s new leader should have international authority," continued the report. "He thinks Clinton, therefore, is the perfect choice."

"There are plenty of people who can be leader of a secretariat in Brussels, but that’s not what NATO needs right now," Hagen told the newspaper. He maintains that Clinton is exactly the kind of "political heavyweight" who could succeed current NATO Secretary-General Lord Robertson (a former Marxist agitator from Scotland). Robertson leapt to prominence as British defense minister during NATO’s 1999 bombing of Yugoslavia. Clinton’s support for that campaign, which brought allies of Osama bin Laden to power in Kosovo, earned the gratitude of the Marxist figures currently occupying key posts in NATO countries, such as Robertson, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder.

"NATO is in a very difficult situation, with a deep conflict between the U.S. and the major EU countries Germany and France," elaborated Hagen. Clinton "has good and close contact with many of Europe’s leaders, and he enjoys considerable respect. He can be the bridge-builder the alliance needs." Additionally, Hagen believes it would be difficult for President Bush to oppose Clinton if his candidacy is supported by a majority of European governments.

Bill Clinton wouldn't even be qualified to be the hall monitor of the cellblock that he should be occupying...

[Mercat]

Never mind that he's scum, a former president should never take an official post which could put him at odds with a present or future president of the US.

Like Buba cares about that. The big dope has been doing everything possible to oppose George W. Bush except become a French citizen. At least not yet.

Buba=Bubba

(but Buba fits too)

Oh, is that so? America's answer: Are you feeling Lucky, Punk?! Make my day.

...a former president should never take an official post which could put him at odds with a present or future president of the US.

And that's exactly why Clinton might do this.

[ChadGore]

Bill Clinton isn't qualified to shine my shoes.

[fightinJAG]

If the EU wants to hear a roar out of the American people, let them nominate the Sinkmaster for NATO chief.

Look, the Hildebeast already went to France last week to peddle her book and line Old Crusty's pockets. She could care less that France is our mortal adversary.

Who will be the first in line to support the nomination of the Sinkmaster? Yep, Jack Chirac. HELLO.

'Nuf said.

[fightinJAG]

You got that right.

[Duramaximus]

The only thing Klintoon is qualified for is wearing an ornage jumpsuit, and breaking big rocks into smaller ones.

Bubba Klintoon can kiss my lily-white.... on second thought, I would rather he didn't.

[Servant of the Nine]

That will definitely be cause to withdraw from NATO

Forget precedent. Forget propriety. Forget decency.

This lying scumbag will do anything, anything at all to promote himself and his (ha! ha! )legacy.

[I got the rope]

I say let him go. As soon as he gets there he'll probably get hauled off to court for some War Crime. Let the Europeans get rid of him for us.

[SandRat]

The EU pantie waist crowd still has not got it. Bubba is not in the White House and neither is the Hilda Beast.

"Walker, TEXAS RANGER" is in there and he's not taking any lip off the EU street punks.

[mhking]

They deserve each other - and they can keep his sorry butt out of our hair...

[WVNan]

He's looking more and more like his number is 666.

[PokeyJoe]

He might qualify for a shower soap picker upper though.
