Bill Clinton Calls Iraq 'Big Mistake' Nov 16 2:23 PM US/Eastern

By LARA SUKHTIAN Associated Press Writer

Excerpt: DUBAI, United Arab Emirates Former President Clinton told Arab students Wednesday the United States made a "big mistake" when it invaded Iraq, stoking the partisan debate back home over the war.

Clinton cited the lack of planning for what would happen after Saddam Hussein was overthrown.

"Saddam is gone. It's a good thing, but I don't agree with what was done," Clinton told students at a forum at the American University of Dubai.

"It was a big mistake. The American government made several errors ... one of which is how easy it would be to get rid of Saddam and how hard it would be to unite the country."

The last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it.

Someone should give Hillary the combination to that vault. Half of our problem would be solved as she most likely will show it to Bill.

I agree! Clinton was also too busy selling China advanced technology which might be used against us one day.

"Clinton will say ANYTHING; he's bottom of the barrel scum."

You can scrub out scum with a little elbow grease. Clinton is more like an advanced case of the clap that doesn't respond to antibiotics. Or perhaps like a boomerang. You try to toss it away but it just comes back.

The things you listed are far more important than Monica. I completely agree with you. The MSM and the Demos want us to focus on Monica and forget about the real treason. Clinton wasn't just a pervert, he was a real danger to this country.

Perot started the Perot movement.
The people who followed him were not used as the pawns they were by Perot who had a personal problem of some kind against the Bush's.
Democrats benefited as they always do when anyone votes for a third party candidates in the actual elections. Or as I call it, the throw away vote!
It seems to always end up being passive enabling of the Democrat party in the very least.

Hopefully they learned their lesson, you try to make changes in the primary, then go Republican in the general election.

"And tommorrow is casual Burqua Fridays."

There is so much fertile ground for a caustic reponse here but I'm a little under the weather and not thinking as well as I should be. I hope someone will pick up on this and carry it further.

Yup...there's an old Bedouin saying...

"What happens in Dubai......stays in Dubai"

Bill caught that on the brochure on the way over : )

I'm hoping history will bring that more into focus and Monica will fade.

The thing that has always perplexed me is why the Clintons didn't raise their illicit cash from the drug cartels that Roger and Bill had varying degrees of affiliation with. Why raise it with Red Chinese? The Red Chinese wanted something that the Clintons also wanted them to have.

I was living in Singapore when the WTC was hit, and my very first thought was "one year too late."
