From the man who informed us that "it all depends on what the meaning of is, is" or who gave us the unique perspective that "oral sex isn't really sex," well, we should all know better than to accept anything he says at face value. So, let's dig a litle further, shall we?

Perhaps, Bill, you were referring to the Jordan River in Salt Lake County, Utah. It drains into a large salt-water marsh. Yep, there's an excellent chance that the Iranians need another salt marsh, like they don't have enough of the stuff already. ( Hint: see Basra, Bill)

Or perhaps, Bill, you meant the glorious country of northern Michigan, up near Lake Charlevoix. It's truly beautiful country. And there's the off chance that the Iraqis might sneak across the Canadian border, swim across the Great Lakes, and try and work their way down to Detroit. You can rent a canoe on the Jordan river there for $10/day, Bill, though I would strongly advise against paddling and firing your weapon at the same time. And, there are some lovely inns nearby, while you're enjoying R&R away from the rigors and stresses of a combat deployment.

Or, Bill, you could comb through any world atlas, and find several more Jordan rivers..( or maybe your meant Joan Rivers?)..but as any person with an ounce of faith could tell you, we tend to refer to it as the River Jordan.....

BTW, Bill...only the Iraqis or the Iranians? Kind of limits your targets of oportunity, eh? I assume therefore, that if the Egyptians, or the Syrians, or the Jordanians..heck, even if the Palestinians started to paddle across the "Jordan river" in inner tubes, you wouldn't feel the need to bear arms. What about the Libyans, or the Yemenis, or the Saudis? They don't make the cut either, eh? Why not? You've got something against whacking Saudis, Bill?

And maybe it's time for a refresher course in geography, Bill. Let's assume for the moment that the dastardly Iraqis and Iranians do decide to attack Israel. One small problem. Heading across the "Jordan river" isn't the most likely path of attack. It's a tad out of the way. It's like, well, in the wrong direction. OK, I'll admit they've got plenty of petrol laying around for their tanks..but still, you really don't want to string out your armies an extra thousand miles. But if the Iraqis invade through Lebanon, or even if the Iranians take a few charter flights into Ben Gurion airport, well, Bill, that gets you off the ol' hook, right, cause technically they didn't come across the "Jordan river."

I could go on, and on, Bill, like Lanny davis did, but maybe by now you get my drift. And, oh year one last suggestion, Bill, when you "grab a rifle" don't forget to grab the ammo. See, Bill, a rifle without ammo, well...it's just liek what you said about oral sex..it ain't the real deal...as anyone whp's got an ounce of brains can tell you, a soldier can't get off shooting blanks.

I rather suspect the answer lies in the line "I would personally grab a rifle, get in a ditch..."

Clearly a metaphor for the sort of thing he did in the Oral Office instead of fighting Al Queda.

Clinton maintains the river is called the "Jordan River" in honor of Michael Jordan.

Maybe the Iraqis are the only foreign bunch who haven't given Slick illegal campaign contributions. That would be his real beef with them.

Please correct me if I am wrong about this but, back when Hillary was on the Today Show, talking with Mutt Lauer, she made the statement that Bubba was accused of having an affair with Monica Lewinsky, but that will not be PROVEN true. She didn't say that it wasn't true, only that it wouldn't be proved to be true. I don't think I ever heard Rush or anyone point that out. But, I could be wrong, and would welcome the correction.

...his infamous statement that he "loathed" the military.

He actually said that?

Dunno, ken5050, I thought clinton was referring to the tv show 'Crossing Jordan.' That he would like to date her, that he would be there for her... as O'Reilly opines, 'Am I wrong???' :)

Not even when the killer rabbits attack?

Come on, Ken, let him shoot at the killer rabbits. Carter tried to get 'em with a paddle, and he almost perished.

LOL ... Somehow, I don't think the Great Stainmaker would know which end of a rifle to use. But if you gave him a cigar ....
