LOLLOLOL HAHAHAHA Unbefreakinlievable! He refers to his 2 token RINOS in his bubble as "ALL THE REPUBLICANS" at the time who told him he was to obsessed with Bin Laden...ooops I mean...Saddam....Wow, these guys have to get together and get their stories straight and find out WHICH RINO told Bill he was too obsessed....AND Find out which Terrorist Bill was obsessed over...what a pickle of lies hes weaved.

In a dramatic moment on November 16, 1997, Cohen appeared on ABC News's This Week with a five-pound bag of sugar to illustrate the threat posed by Saddam Hussein's weapons. "This amount of anthrax could be spread over a city—let's say the size of Washington," Cohen said. "It would destroy at least half the population of that city."

On August 25, 2006, William Cohen appeared on Fox & Friends First primarily to promote his new novel, but towards the end of the broadcast declared the following while being interviewed by Brian Kilmeade: "I think there should be a commitment to universal service. I think that only a few people are really committed to this war against terrorism... We ought to have a real call to national service to commit ourselves to some form of public service ... to put us on a war footing mentality".

Clinton never went to war with Iraq?

I suppose that would be news to Bill Clinton who atuhorized Operation Desert Fox in 1998

let's take a closer look...

In December 1998, Bill Clinton authorized the SecDef to take the U.S. to war against Iraq. The formal language of the mission Clinton approved was:

To strike military and security targets in Iraq that contribute to Iraq's ability to produce, store, maintain and deliver weapons of mass destruction.

Now, that's odd right? Since "everyone knows" father Saddam never had any WMD Yet for some reason Oliver's hero signed off on a mission with the stated goal:

to degrade Saddam Hussein's ability to make and to use weapons of mass destruction. To diminish Saddam Hussein's ability to wage war against his neighbors. To demonstrate to Saddam Hussein the consequences of violating international obligations.

Well maybe Clinton was too busy fumbling with his belt buckle to have read the authorization for war he gave to SecDef. Bill Cohen. Maybe Cohen was confused. Let's go to the Pentagon on the night Operation Desert Fox began when Cohen said:

President Clinton's decision to strike Iraq has clear military goals. We want to degrade Saddam Hussein's ability to make and to use weapons of mass destruction. We want to diminish his ability to wage war against his neighbors. And we want to demonstrate the consequences of flouting international obligations.

Saddam Hussein has been an outlaw for some time. In the 1980s he used chemical weapons against Iran and against his own Kurdish minority. In 1990 he invaded Kuwait. In 1991 he fired SCUD missiles at his neighbors. At the end of the Gulf War the United Nations Security Council demanded that Iraq fully disclose and dismantle its program to build deadly biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. But Saddam has used a combination of denials, deceptions and delays to evade Security Council mandates.

At nearly every turn Iraq has chosen obstruction over openness, and confrontation over cooperation.

Text Of Clinton Statement On Iraq

Text of President Clinton's address to Joint Chiefs of Staff and Pentagon staff:

snip

If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program. We want to seriously reduce his capacity to threaten his neighbors.

I am quite confident, from the briefing I have just received from our military leaders, that we can achieve the objective and secure our vital strategic interests.

Let me be clear: A military operation cannot destroy all the weapons of mass destruction capacity. But it can and will leave him significantly worse off than he is now in terms of the ability to threaten the world with these weapons or to attack his neighbors.
