[history]
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton urged the Bush administration to use caution before any military action against Iraq.
Describing her visit to U.S. soldiers injured in Afghanistan and recovering at Washington's Walter Reed Medical Center, the Democratic New York senator asked President Bush to seek congressional approval before any attack on Iraq.

Hilliary recently claimed in a local paper that she's been sitting in on top-secret classified briefings that "don't support (military action) against Iraq at this time". What briefings would those be do you suppose? Where are she and Toon getting all this info? And what's she doing blabbing about it in public if it is true?

"There's no question people would be better off without him," Clinton said, but warned: "You don't do things just because you can." What an idiot and an ass.

The former president said the U.S. military could easily win an attack on Iraq and displace its leader, Saddam Hussein, but he questioned whether it should be done. "Everybody knows that he's been a thug, hasn't been good for his people, hasn't been good for the region. There's no question people would be better off without him," Clinton said, but warned: "You don't do things just because you can."
"Not if there's a cowardly way out."
Priceless.
President Bush's problem here is that Clinton didn't leave an aspirin factory standing.

Some of their payoff checks drawn on Baghdad banks haven't cleared yet.

Those poor soldiers at Walter Reed....talk about a captive audience....since when has Hitlery cared about our GI's?

"You don't do things just because you can." LOL! He definitely possesses unmitigated gall.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Clintoon is a COWARD. He refused to fight for his country and rushed off to Great Britain to avoid military service. Now he wants this entire country to rush off to the EU and the UN to find an excuse not to defend us against the terrorists.
And HOW does he have the chutzpah to say that you don't do something just because you can? He didn't have that as a guiding principle when he and Monica found they COULD do something.

Coming from the mouths of these two corruptions of the human race, who have constantly done things just because they could, makes me wonder why anyone would quote them and call it newsworthy.

Doesn't Jimmy Carter do the same kind of thing? - Like going to Cuba and making speeches, etc.?

Well, Dumb and Dumber have been heard from.
Gore and Lieberman?
Albright and Berger?
Christopher and Cohen?
Carville and Begala?
Daschle and Gephardt?
Sharpton and Jackson?
Monica and Bernard?
Any two random Kennedys?

To: trebb
Well, in light of how much these two know about our secrets maybe the FBI should add two more subpoenae to their list of folks they want records from concerning those leaks.

Coming from these two terrorism fightin' success stories?
Can u spell U-S-S-C-O-L-E???? This problems could have been nipped in the bud long ago, but for these two traitors.
They ignored the threat for almost a decade! Sen. Hillary: "Maybe, if we ignore it just a little more, just maybe, it will go away.
Now that I'm up to my ankles in sarcasm; </sarcasm>

Describing her visit to U.S. soldiers injured in Afghanistan and recovering at Washington's Walter Reed Medical Center... Geez..can't these soliders receive some kind of medal for bravery in the face of the enemy (not the Al-Queda) ?
