One of the centerpieces of President Bush's counter-offensive against his Iraq war critics will be a Republican National Committee commercial focusing on a speech given by former President Bill Clinton.
U.S. News & World Report says the RNC ad will spotlight Clinton's Feb. 17, 1998 speech on Iraq, where the former prez "guaranteed" that Saddam Hussein would use his weapons of mass destruction.
"Let's imagine the future," Clinton said seven years ago. "What if [Saddam] fails to comply [with U.N. sanctions], and we fail to act, or we take some ambiguous third route which gives him yet more opportunities to develop this program of weapons of mass destruction and continue to press for the release of the sanctions and continue to ignore the solemn commitments that he made?"
Clinton warned: "He will conclude that the international community has lost its will. He will then conclude that he can go right on and do more to rebuild an arsenal of devastating destruction.
"And some day, some way, I guarantee you, he'll use the arsenal."
Other soundbytes from Democratic flip-floppers will feature WMD warnings from Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
Sweet!
wooohoo! finally.
Karl Rove is back!!!
bttt
Those will be very effective ads.
I'm so glad!
A Revelation would be produced if he followed up.
Will it matter??
The dems will just go straight to their," ..history started TODAY! not yesterday..and WE will tell you al what is IT!...and it is up to YOU to have to DISPROVE IT if you have the nerve to tell us Elitists and Moderate media and press that our facts are wrong..."
Then Sorros will throw a few million to Moving On--they'll get the 17 year olds and Hippies out out of retirement to March--
Then McCain will pass ANOTHER " Anti-Free-Speech" bill and No-One on the Internet will be allowed to talk about ANYTHING Poltical 361 days before and election.

"It's about damn time Bush started fighting back!"
And if he needs help. COME HERE MR PRESIDENT!
We have been making these kinds of arguments for a long time now. I have been slamming liberals with these kinds of arguments since day one. YOU CAN TOO!
I can do it in my sleep now.
YEAH!!!! Finally! I only wish they had done this about 2 months ago! Better now than never!
I agree, but if Bush was a real fighter he would of done this a long time ago. It would of been apart of who he is. Now, its like, ok I better do something because of my poll numbers are dropping.
He was talking about Ted Kennedy, however as usual this statement of his has been vague.
I'm glad to see GWB fighting back,but don't forget the libs will spin this so much that it won't mean a thing to them. Dummies believe other dummies.
MORE....MORE...EVERYDAY BUSH NEEDS TO SAT THESE THINGS!!
Are you saying that Bush can't do this? Sort of lends credence to those that say Bush is a puppet of others.
I am once again encouraged to start supporting the Republican party, finally starting to show a backbone, let's start slapping the Democrats like they justly deserve, followed by the spineless RINOs we are burdened with.
