Clinton: 'Follow Blix lead' on Iraq
CNN ^ | February 14, 2003 3:00 AM EST (0800 GMT)

Posted on 02/14/2003 12:25:58 AM PST by estjohn

Former President Bill Clinton on Thursday said the Bush administration should not take action against Iraq without guidance from chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix and the support of Europe.

"We should let Blix lead us to come together," Clinton said, addressing members of a synagogue. "Everyone knows [Iraqi President] Saddam [Hussein] needs to disarm or get out of town ... [but] he won't do it unless the world is united."

Calling Blix a "tough, honest guy who is trying to find the truth," Clinton said the Bush administration should support the head weapons inspector.

Blix will give a progress report to the U.N. Security Council on Friday.

Clinton said any "pre-emptive strike" against Iraq by the United States should come only with the support of Europe, including NATO members France, Belgium and Germany.

Calling Blix a "tough, honest guy who is trying to find the truth,"

Oh, pu-lease!

How many all-over-the-freakin'-map, less-decisive-even-than-albore, pronouncements-from-on-low re iraq does this make for the rapist? Bush is wrong, Bush is right, listen to blix, don't listen to blix, we need the un, we don't need the un. The fact that this P.O.S. led the free world for eight years is positively surreal.

This guy not only provided the means for N. Korea to make nukes, but then blocked any U.S. missile defense against those same nukes.

The only word coming out of those herpes-infected lips should be "sorry". The only writing from those woman-punching hands should be a suicide note.

As far as I am concerned, X42 has no right to offer any advice. He made a mess of things while he played at being president. He can keep his thoughts to himself. He is a has been.

I have absolutely no doubt that the position of France and Germany is being helped along, if not orchestrated, by this walking waste of skin.

I also think that if we have intercepts of Iraqi phone calls, we probably have interceptions of French and German calls as well. Just a hint, Clinton, that you aren't as clever as you think.

It's called "comic relief".

Enjoy it.

Correction:Unlike other Conservative ex-presidents.......

Let's not forget how Jimmy Carter spouts his mouth off from time to time.

Bill Clinton -- the only president to destroy the digity of the office and the mantle of being a former president.

Somebody tell this Son-of-a-bitch that ex-president's are supposed to have the decency and honor to keep their mouths shut. Oops! I forgot. This is Clinton and Liberals aren't expected to have any respectable traits.

The Man never stops campaigning

And now he is campaigning on the world stage. No wonder he wants the US to follow the UN. He wants to set the precedent (of the US lead by the UN) so that when he gets to the top, he will once again have leadership over the US (in a weakened state) and the world.

The Clinton 'mouth' as always full of his self-serving arrogance.

CNN . . .Larry King et al, continue to invite this man's spit on America/George Bush analysis which is passed off as astute political analysis.

No words disgusting enough to describe this ex President and his modus operandi.

Uh, excuse me, but this foolish idiot is not the POTUS. He had his chance to take care of matters but his legacy is his giving away missile technology and arming many powers in the "Axis of Evil" and soiling a young girls dress after having sex with her. And we're supposed to respect him and listen to him?

Clinton's has been on ALOT of programs this past week. Someone asked why he chose this week to emerge. I'm betting its because of the showdown with the UN. If the UN makes itself irrelevant, his aspirations to be chairman or leader of the UN will go down the tubes.

Clinton's trying to establish credibility for his inaction. History will not be kind to him.
