Words that come Back to Haunt you. George in 1999 |
|
I just went on to Political Wire and they had this on the front page. Quotes from George Bush in 1999 in regards to Clinton. My but, your words can come back to bite you in the butt:
"Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is."
-- George W. Bush, 4/9/99, criticizing President Clinton for not setting a timetable for exiting Kosovo.
"I think it's also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn."
-- George W. Bush, 6/5/99

5. Conveniently, EVERYONE has forgotten about it. |
|
Don't hear Sean, Rush et al giving much lip service to this. Not to mention ANY of the corporate media.

3. I remember him saying something during the 2000 debate about not getting involved in Nation Building |
|
Well, come to think of it, he isn't really doing that either, it's more like nation destroying

6. But, but, but ..... 9/11 changed everything! |
|
Most notably it changed the office of the (p)resident of the United States to the unitary executive (dictator) of the United States.
