Who or what to believe?
First, sorry for my absence but I just haven't been in the blogging mood for a while. Leave it to something with the GOP and the hypocrisy of how they control government to bring me back.
Why can the GOP continue to lie with no repercussions? Clinton lied about a blow job and they were all over him like ants at a picnic. We are not talking sex acts here today. This is the death of our citizens with no remorse or explanations. I for one am sick of it. Americans HAVE to unite for change. These slimy, greedy fascist control freaks say one thing and do the other, they lie, cheat and steal from us and call themselves patriotic.
Back when Clinton decided to do something about Bosnia the Republicans were screaming about no war. Thanks for the info from the Daily Kos ( http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/8/17/144732/740 ) we can read how hypocritical they are:
Quotes from when Clinton committed troops to Bosnia:
"You can support the troops but not the president." --Rep Tom Delay (R-TX)
"Well, I just think it's a bad idea. What's going to happen is they're going to be over there for 10, 15, maybe 20 years." --Joe Scarborough (R-FL)
"Explain to the mothers and fathers of American servicemen that may come home in body bags why their son or daughter have to give up their life?" --Sean Hannity, Fox News, 4/6/99
"[The] President . . . is once again releasing American military might on a foreign country with an ill-defined objective and no exit strategy. He has yet to tell the Congress how much this operation will cost. And he has not informed our nation's armed forces about how long they will be away from home. These strikes do not make for a sound foreign policy." --Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA)
"American foreign policy is now one huge big mystery. Simply put, the administration is trying to lead the world with a feel-good foreign policy." --Rep Tom Delay (R-TX)
"If we are going to commit American troops, we must be certain they have a clear mission, an achievable goal and an exit strategy." --Karen Hughes, speaking on behalf of George W Bush
"I had doubts about the bombing campaign from the beginning . . I didn't think we had done enough in the diplomatic area." --Senator Trent Lott (R-MS)
"I cannot support a failed foreign policy. History teaches us that it is often easier to make war than peace. This administration is just learning that lesson right now. The President began this mission with very vague objectives and lots of unanswered questions. A month later, these questions are still unanswered. There are no clarified rules of engagement. There is no timetable. There is no legitimate definition of victory. There is no contingency plan for mission creep. There is no clear funding program. There is no agenda to bolster our over-extended military. There is no explanation defining what vital national interests are at stake. There was no strategic plan for war when the President started this thing, and there still is no plan today" --Rep Tom Delay (R-TX)
"Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the President to explain to us what the exit strategy is." --Governor George W. Bush (R-TX)
Go ahead and just say anything and as along as you are a Republican no one will hold you accountable for lying. I for one will NEVER trust these people.
Clinton tried to stop the terror from happening and the GOP stopped him by the most vicious personal attach ever seen. The GOP got it wrong and we paid the price.
I will say one thing for Clinton, he would have spoken with he fallen soldiers families with respect because he cares, he has a heart unlike the current administration. That is why he will always be loved no matter how hard the GOP tries to tarnish his reputation.
Bush, and the GOP have failed us and the worse part is they don't care.
