President Bush bombing Iraq

(1/2) > >>

Trauma-san:
Everybody is bitching about Bush doing this, but I've got a question, since it seems like only Democrats complaing about it.

If you'll remember, in 1998, Bill Clinton was in the middle of the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

Guess what? He flew planes to Iraq, and bombed them for 4 days straight, based on the SAME British intelligence Bush cited in his state of the union speech.  Yes, that's right.  Clinton bombed Iraq for the same exact intelligence that Bush quoted; and that wasn't even Bush's quoted reason for attacking Iraq!

I'll ALSO note, that Clinton didn't go to the U.N. and get permission; he didn't make a speech informing the American People what he was doing and why; he just did it, had Iraq bombed, and it just so happens it was right in the middle of the Monica scandal.  That's all I'm going to say about that one.  

You guys really need to get your facts straight.

Trauma admits Bush bombed Iraq based on intelligence that was five years old.

Trauma-san:
No, trauma doesn't, bitch.  


Pay attention, it gets scary.


The ONLY intelligence Clinton bombed Iraq on was this intelligence that everyone is CRITICISING Bush on.  LOL.


Bush gave several, several reasons for bombing iraq (remember, yall were criticising that he was giving too many reasons?), he mentioned this one in his state of the union speech, 1 time, along with the dozens of other things he mentioned during the lead up to the war.

So, why is it wrong for Bush to partially base his plans on this evidence, but it's 100% right for Clinton to base his actions solely on this evidence?

Any ideas? Or do you not have any answers?  

Jay ay Beee:
I just told you - Clinton's evidence was fresh at the time.

For Bush it was five years old.

Now what part of your head does that not compute through.

Javier:
The only goodthing that came from Clinton was how good the Economy was AND enviromental problems were being solved
