<<The evidence turns out to be some what suspect>>I'm sure you know that depends on where you stand on the issue.[news papers take stands too you know ]I suspect some Republicans without saying so think we didn't do enough.From what Clinton said in his post bombing speech 100% of his advisors agreed to the attack .I suppose you may think that was a rubber stamp .But they had no Monica axe to grind .Waiting a week or so might have been ok but it seems that to wait to long after the attack on our embassies may have lessened the effect of a swift and strong response.Also keep in mind it was not our allies embassies that were bombed.I'm not sure their approval was required. Swift and inevitable retaliation becomes more of a threat than retaliation by committee.Having said all that, with the benefit of hind site the attack may have been better planned but this could be said about most things.Still this is a far cry from claiming that this was done over Monica.
