A Repitition Of The Same Errors
Mark Eby — (archived)

Why would Clinton do any of what you suggested when his intent was to do nothing? You don't publicly state your case for a threat and then say I'm not really planning on doing anything about it. Clinton did take limited action based on believing the same things Bush did AS HE HAS PUBLICLY STATED, but didn't need to make a big public case for such limited and ineffective actions. Why do you insist on interpreting Clinton's actions rather than listening to his actual statements?

Powell presented what he thought was convincing evidence. Bush et al were wrong just as Clinton's administration was. Unlike Clinton they weren't willing to ignore such threats and I fully support that stance especially given the circumstances that taking out Saddam was justifiable even without WMD. A point which was made before the war despite Democratic lies to the contrary.

Regards,
Mark
