Former U.S. President Bill Clinton goes to pay tribute to late Vietnamese revolutionary leader Ho Chi Minh at his mausoleum in Hanoi, Vietnam, Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2006. Clinton came to Hanoi to sign an agreement with the Vietnamese government under which his Clinton Foundation will provide pediatric drugs to children living with HIV and AIDS.

Unfriggen-believable.

Families of dead US soldiers must be sickened by this too.

Clinton is showing his true colors. He admires those communists.

Once a traitor always a traitor!

Bill should stay over there - he can swing over to Bangkok and take up residence at the Nana Plaza.

He looks so solemn. What a sincere guy.

Actually, since Ho's a Commie hero, Xlinton probably is sincere in this case.

Clinton paying a tribute to Ho ChiMinh is entirely appropriate - for Clinton. The Dems have a lot to answer for.

Bill Clinton is not one to miss a funeral - at least one time the family even had to ask him not to come.

I feel sorry for any child with Aids. It's not their fault, and I don't contest anyone giving them medical assistance or care. But, my questions fall along these lines... This is now a socialist parardise with socialized medical care. There are no Christians, conservatives, neocons, or Republicans over there, as best I can determine. How then did they get Aids? Surely they are not sharing needles in a communist paradise. Where did the Aids come from. Now, before some one flames, try to see the irony in my comment, keeping in mind the usual reasons cited by leftists for the spread of Aids.

This guy is absolutely everywhere. He's having dinner with Chelsea, he's at a jazz club, he's in India, he's in Little Rock, he's at a Martin Luther King ceremony, he's in Nebraska at Girls Inc., he's in Mexico and that's all in the last couple of weeks. It is impossible to avoid Clinton because the media reports everything he does. They pick away at Bush and worship Clinton. He is walking around Vietnam like he is still President. Every picture of Bush is the goofiest one they can find. Every picture of
Clinton is the most dignified and animated.

He disgusts me.

Paying honours? To the man who destroyed a nation and killed american soldiers? Tortured them?

What's next, endorsing President Imamadjihadi in Iran?

You're right. I wonder why he hasn't put in an appearance in Castro's hospital room, for a photo shoot of him wishing the tyrant a speedy recovery!

December 12, 1969 (approximately): Clinton visits Norway where he meets with various "peace" organizations.

December 12 (approx.) - December 31, 1969: ??? Comment: After visiting Norway with Father McSorley, Clinton's movements and activities are unknown until he arrives in Moscow on December 31, 1969. There are a lot of questions as to who Clinton met and where he went during this time period.

December 31, 1969 - January 6, 1970: Clinton travels to Moscow. He later said "relations between our two countries were pretty good then." He then described his visit as "a very friendly time, a good atmosphere." Despite Clinton's claim that January 1970 was "a time of détente," relations between the United States and the Soviet Union were anything but warm. The Soviets were supplying the North Vietnamese with advisors and anti-aircraft weapons.

For a first class air ticket, free 5 star hotel and meals, big fat contract for his "foundation" and a photo op, he'd go pray at a shinto shrine for the WW2 Japanese soldiers and their emperor, too.

Bill probably did that during the Vietnam War, when the Soviets invited him to Moscow.

Maybe Clinton can visit Stalin's tomb. There must be a memorial for Hitler somewhere. There's lots of murdering, commie/socialist killers graves he can yet visit. Hey, Pol Pot's remains are just across the border in Cambodia. There must be a memorial for him in Cambodia somewhere. Slick Willie can lay flowers on his tomb too.

So the three-time draft dodger finally made it to Nam.
Why this POS was not arrested and imprisoned for dodging the draft is a mystery to me.
When a country elects a draft-dodger to be POTUS over a veteran,
you know the country has gone to hell.


Semper Fi,
Kelly
