Just remember that no one looked more shaken than the Mad Bomber of Sudan when the trigger was pulled on Serbia a little advance of the "good bombing weather" in June (about which the Pentagon was crowing as if we hadn't already run out of targets, civilian or otherwise, much less the stocks those who threw the "New NATO's" birthday bash that year were only too happy to replenish).
He dropped the football ... do you remember that?
Of course Cohen's a lying sack of shit ... but they all are. And Clinton's well below Cohen, I suspect, in a foodchain where the GOP calls the shots as a rule. Please don't ever forget who it was preserved Clinton through the circus of impeachment so that he was able to play bagman for the Balkans.
No less than George H. Bush and Bob Dole stepped up out of nowhere to Send a Message that actual removal of Clinton would sully the decorum of his semen-stained office.
Did I link the Cohen speech? Bears reading. I've an old post on the Asia Society which also bears reading.
After all, nothing like the inscrutable East or the Bucks to be made off of "biologicals" which show best how one hand washes the other.
Fascinating stuff!
