Daddy "no new taxes" Dubya "no nation building"

[spanone]

a lie is a lie is a lie is a lie is a lie. I distinctly remember bush giving Clinton shit over nation building during campaign. 911 opened the coffers of the U.S. Treasury to the bush cabal. Maybe the terrorists were even smarter than imagined.

1. You are right...here's the quote and a link....

"Let me tell you what else I'm worried about: I'm worried about an opponent who uses nation building and the military in the same sentence. See, our view of the military is for our military to be properly prepared to fight and win war and, therefore, prevent war from happening in the first place."

2. I like what Al Franken said:

"I didn't realize when he said he opposed nation building, he meant ours!"
