Bill Clinton was a fucking buffoon for appointing George Tenet
and as well as for appointing Woosley.

William Cohen was also a Republican hack who mercilessly bombed Iraq and Kosovo just for Murkans to feel good.

I feel sorry that Al Gore had to serve under a buffoon like Clinton. I could just imagine what those NSC meetings were like with Gore and Tenet. Gore must have been really tortured in that room with such war criminals.

1. Your right. George H.W. should have been president instead
and then Bob Dole should have succeeded him.

What crap.

10. No we need only
appeal to the American people, the working people, the real people with messages of peace and hope, something the corporate media and the multinationals they represent won't let John Kerry talk about.

37. Thanks for putting words in my mouth.
Clinton supported the War on Iraq in 2002. Do you honestly deny that?

About what it spells. We're not in trouble. I know I have not broken any rules. We were just playing a little game of Wheel of Fortune. I did not attack any one specific person on this site. And neither did you.

Hopefully somebody comes soon. That "logic is a bitch"

6. you sound like you don't like...
the militarization of our society. I've heard it put better, but as one who believes that we should not have a CIA, and that the FBI should be restricted to operate within the law, outlandish I know, what you're saying sounds a lot more like anger about the truth than BS like the Anybody But Bush mentality so prevalent "here". Good for you for speaking your mind.

Not going to argue to your specific point, but that crap you posted about Bill Clinton is just that--CRAP. Jeezus, I thought this was one of those "joke" threads until I came in here and saw the garbage. Bill Clinton a "war criminal"? You're deluded. Please tell me this is a joke.

How freaking hard is this to understand?
Tenet was a war criminal for his actions at CIA. And the person who appointed him lacks intelligence for having done so!

I must've missed that. BTW, Tenet might very well be the man to bring down Bush in Plamegate.

And not one, but several of his appointments in Defense and Intelligence were chickenhawks (including himself).

Is Clinton better than Bush? Definitely. Is my fucking cat better than Bush? Yes. Does that absolve Clinton? Absolutely not.

16. Sometimes posts are so outlandish they don't deserve a response
"BlackActivist" is either a troll trying to yank some chains or the offspring of wealthy parents who fancies himself some sort of revolutionary.

Pump your fist in the air a little more.
