This really isn't a bad thing what he is saying...I know we don't like him as a messanger - but I agree entirely.

Clinton did NOTHING to go after Bin Laden. He was to busy spending resources going after "right wing extremists" and bombing Serb christians, which ironically, helped bin laden's friends out in the balkans.

He has no right whatsover to criticize the President over anything to do with the war on terror.

BTW...Who says we aren't concentrating on bin laden? Come back with me in October.

His statement isn't about himself (which is rare). He supported Bush in the Iraqi war in the beginning. He even gave decent reasons for why we should invade Iraq (that were echoed by Tony Blair frequently but less so by President Bush). Last I checked, Bill Clinton was an American - he can use any pulpit that will welcome him to criticize any action we wants (just as you and I can). Of course I'd like him to apologize for not devouting all our resources towards destroying al Quada while he was President - but I don't think I will ever get that.

And of course we are now focusing on bin Laden. However, it would be a lot easier if we didn't have this meddlesome Iraqi situation to deal with that is taking most of our military and economic resources.
