At providing missle technology to communist China? At giving Hollywood the script for Black Hawk Down? At ignoring the opportunity to apprehend Osama Bin Laden? TWICE? At erecting the wall between intelligence agencies blamed for the inability to connect the pre-9-11 dots? It sounds like it's OK with you that Bush not only allowed WMDs to vanish, but actually set up the situation to ASSURE that they would. What does Bush have to do with Clinton's foreign policy failures? Changing the subject to evade questions isn't a particularly credible debate tactic. You're blaming Clinton for absurd things. I thought it was time to lend some balance to your comments. Clinton's foreign policy featured appeasement and using the military for humanitarian efforts inappropriate to their abilities. This led to the "we can get away with it" attitude partly responsible for the Cole and Mogadishu incidents. The missile-tech-to-China deal involved Loral Technologies, a company run by Clinton cronie Bernard Schwartz, the single most generous donor to the Democratic National Committee. Clinton AAG Jamie Gorelick was the architect of the intelligence wall. Clinton appointees also considered terrorist attacks as criminal acts rather than acts of war, and they didn't believe they could produce enough evidence to secure a criminal conviction of bin Laden. Clinton's fingerprints are on each of these incidents, which is why I mentioned them. I could provide a similar list of GWB foreign policy failures, should someone wish to argue that his policies "were successful". Wisely, nobody has made such an argument that I've seen. At least you're allowing for Bush's nonsense. You're excused from study hall. |
