Great post. I concur totally. You know, thru 8 years of Clinton, I never
felt like I might get blown up any second. Plus, Clinton helped convince
millions of young girls that fellatio wasn't really sex. And what's
wrong with that?!?!?

    ------------------------

And Clinton and previous Dems have such a great foriegn policy record to be
proud of...

http://www.salon.com/news/1998/03/20news.html

"The scale and swiftness of the killings were unheard of: In a country with
little more than 7 million people, more than 500,000 were slaughtered in 100
days, mostly minority Tutsis by the majority Hutus. Nearly 2 million others
fled in terror.

Clinton's Rwanda stop -- probably no more than a few hours at the airport --
might seem a paltry response. But in Washington, Africa watchers have
already taken it as his apology for failing to do a single thing to stop the
1994 genocide. But more than an apology is required if any justice is to be
rendered. "

It is my understanding that Clinton refused to recognize this as a
'genocide' so the UN would not be required to intervene. Im sure the
500,000 Tutsis are glad Clinton was in office. Oh wait, their dead.
