Explain the difference between clinton-gore here or abroad. Blackmail? They can keep the two of them. At this point, who cares?

Your point is well taken and I share your disgust. However, there are certain protocols and conventions that need to be adhered to. The "Perp" and "Vice-Perp" would be excellent targets for those who wish the U.S. ill. And can you imagine the fawning lib press wails if GWB initiated "hot missions" while these high profile two were "out of border"?

c'mon. you are talking about an ex president/vice-president. if something would have happened to x42 on monday i believe president bush, no matter his personal thoughts of the man himself, would have treated it as an act of war. and it would've been.

at this juncture, we are on war footing and the u.s. simply can't allow high profile targets running around the world with minimal security.

He is still a former President. As unseemly that man is he is due some protection. Can you imagine what would happen if he were to be killed outside the country. Sometimes you need to leave your disgust of him at the door.
