Despite doing and extensive, exhaustive search for information regarding what was referred to as the Clinton Doctrine [sic]on the web, invisible web,databases, I have been unsuccessful in uncovering any information, reference, or inkling of a Clinton Doctrine as described by Rightwhale/Don Joe in our correspondence.

If you have anything that makes reference to a Clinton Doctrine as either of you have described I would be most grateful to have it forwarded to my inbox.

Thank you very much.

I don’t know what search might turn it up. There is plenty on related issues such as Star Wars and Russian or Chinese ICBMs, but Clinton Doctrine is an unknown.

Not sure what you were searching for, but I just entered ONE search query -- clinton "first strike" retaliate -- and found a bunch of hits; here's one which looks like it should answer your question:

Thanks to Bill Clinton our new policy is to absorb a nuclear first strike missile attack against the U.S before we retaliate.

Snip:

Welcome to Pearl Harbor! Laxity and lowering one's alert status always invites attack. Thanks to Bill Clinton our new policy is to absorb a nuclear first strike missile attack against the U.S before we retaliate. Before Clinton came into office the U.S. defense policy had always been to immediately launch a retaliatory missile strike in the event that U.S. surveillance satellites detected the infrared signature of a Russian or Chinese ICBM against the U.S. This new policy would almost guarantee that an enemy nuclear first strike would destroy our ability to retaliate against hardened enemy targets such as missile silos and command and control bunkers.

There's more to the article, but the above ought to convince you I didn't just make it up out of whole cloth.

I'm sure you could refine that query (first step would probably be to add the word "absorb" to it) to come up with a more focused list of matches, but in any case, there ya go!

PS:

I think the problem may be one of basic communication — you seem to have somehow come up with the term “the Clinton Doctrine”, and then used that as the basis for your searches.

The thing is, I never USED that term. I merely spoke of “Clinton’s doctrine” (i.e., a description, rather than a “title” so to speak). And, it was indeed “Clinton’s doctrine” — a fact that you can easily verify by searching using relevant search terms (of which “the Clinton Doctrine” is not included!)
