Clinton was smart enough to recognize that.......he used the UN as the lead. He knew it was not a powerhouse but by standing behind the UN shield, he gained a certain world credibility with lesser nations plus he took the focus off the US. It was a very subtle difference and a very effective one.

The brilliant Clinton* (*impeached) did exactly as you say -- it is called selling out our sovereignty. Why would we ask permission from the UN or anyone else to take military action as we see fit? We have EARNED the right to be the most powerful nation in the world. We don't need any third-rate liberal leaders giving away that power (the way Clinton, Carter before him, and LBJ before him did).
