1. Here ya go.....
http://www.proudlib.squarespace.com/republican-quotes-on-clinton-


1. "You can support the troops but not the president."
-Rep Tom Delay (R-TX)

2. "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)

3. "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

4. 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)

5. "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)

6. "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

7. "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)

8. "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)

3. And if you're lucky enuf to catch General Clark do one of his chats...
Boy, you'd really be in luck!

Maybe someone can share his site just so you know when his next community chat is.

It's like SecuringAmerica or something like that - - not sure though.

He'd be great to chat with on this topic!!!!!

6. What's even worse (for the GOP naysayers)
is that the Bosnia mission was accomplished with minimal U.S. casualties. The anti-Clinton Repugs were rabidly opposed to this military action. They did NOT distribute made-in-China "Support the Troops" stickers by the millions. They were loathe to contemplate that Clinton (and the U.S.) might look good in the eyes of the world by helping to stabilize the Balkans and in the process curtail genocidal actions. It's ironic that these right wing talking points could be legitimately applied to the current Iraq policies.
