Mr. Clinton went on the offensive. "Our paradigm now seems to be: Something terrible happened to us on September 11,
###########################################################

How insightful of him. With all his BS, deals, and travel I am supprised he noticed. He certianly didn't notice when he was in office.

and that gives us the right to interpret all future events in a way that everyone else in the world must agree with us. And if they don't, they can go straight to hell,"
###########################################################

He might have figured out that there is a new NO NONSENSE SHERIFF in town. As GWB clearly stated either you are with us or with the Terrorists.

If you got an interdependent world, and you cannot kill, jail or occupy all your adversaries, sooner or later you have to make a deal."
############################################################

Want to bet? If you kill, jail, or occupy, sooner or later the Crazies will learn that they are PI$$ING on the wrong shoes. As goofy as they are if they understand our resolve is stronger than their twisted motives terrorism will abate.

He also criticized White House treatment of France and Germany after both opposed U.S. military action in Iraq.
############################################################

A good question to ask himself would be: If France and Germany are not our strong, reliable Allies, than what are they? How should we treat them?

Mr. Clinton suggested that President Bush and his administration will spend too heavily on defense to the detriment of domestic issues.
###########################################################

Which is exactly how he managed to spend his way into the hearts of the Dems., by spending the Defense savings with the fall of the Commies in Europe on Domestic feel good give away programs.

Mr. Clinton said. "If you fight terrorism, you can't make America a better place to be."
############################################################

If you reduce or eliminate Terrorism in this country then is not AMERICA A BETTER PLACE TO BE?


But just four nights ago, Mr. Clinton was toeing the line like an elder statesman. "Mr. Bush has done the right thing in removing Saddam Hussein from power. They now have a fresh chance to do the right thing and rebuild Iraq,"
And in an April 3 speech at the University of Florida, Mr. Clinton weighed in on Iraq with hawklike tones. "We've got the power, we've got the juice. We should do the job."
############################################################

Once again he shows his true colors by doing a flip flop unless you consider he is still defining the meaning of the word IS.

Now that the war is essentially over, Mr. Clinton seems to have started his own debate.
###########################################################

The problem is that he is on both sides of his own debate.

According to an April 11 Pew Research poll, 42 percent of Democrats believe that using military force to remove a dictator is "rarely or never" the right thing to do. The figure was 16 percent for Republicans.
############################################################

There in may lay the problem. Presidents need to listen to their advisers more and the polls less. Presidents should do the right thing not necessarly the popular course. That is why they are elected.

"Both Carter and Clinton have been particularly outspoken after they left the White House.
############################################################

They certianly didn't have too much to say while they were in power. Too bad Clinton didn't use some of that MORAL FIBER that Carter seemed to have a lot of. Had Clinton displayed as much backbone as he showed contempt for the Public things may have gone better and possibly 9/11 not happened.

"If you fight terrorism, you can't make America a better place to be."

So, let me see if I got this straight: America is NO BETTER WITHOUT TERROR on our soil than with terror.

The Clinton Scandals continue. It still isn't safe to vote Democratic, folks. Much to my chargain (I'd like to see a viable opposition to Bush), Bush will take 2004 in a walk.
