...in history have lame duck presidents (during the time after losing re-election but before leaving office) committed troops to a brand-spanking new war?
None that I can think of, other than Poppy Bush.
Somalia was a hot-potato quagmire made to order to spite the Democrat who beat the old coot out of a second term.
`Just another example of the Bush Family squandering the lives of American troops for their own petty, personal reasons.
