Why didn't Big Bill do something?

A better question is, why are Republicans so slow? Clinton did attack
Iraq. On 12/16/98, he launched 200 cruise missiles at Iraq. What was
the Republican response? Clinton's "Wagging the Dog" to avoid dealing
with the Lewinsky matter. Fast forward 5 years, and the Republicans are
all on board invading Iraq. Clearly there were no political motivations
as this was a matter of national security, so one just has to assume
Republicans are slow.
