CLINTON QUOTES FOR THE MONTH
I can do any Goddamned thing I want. I'm President of the United States. I take care of my friends and I fuck with my enemies. That's the way it is. Anybody who doesn't like it can take a hike. - Bill Clinton [reportedly, at a meeting where Clinton told staff members he wanted everyone in Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's office audited by the IRS]
We're not inflicting pain on these fuckers [Somalian warlords].... When people kill us, they should be killed in greater numbers. I believe in killing people who try to hurt you. And I can't believe we're being pushed around by these two-bit pricks. - Bill Clinton [as recalled by George Stephanopoulos in his book All Too Human]
[Clinton] is in terrible trouble mentally and psychologically and is a completely hollow narcissist and egomaniac. And he thinks that the best therapy for it is being president. My view is that presidential therapy hasn't worked for him and shouldn't have been tried. But he certainly does need professional help. - Christopher Hitchens
Remember the Bosnia crisis a couple years ago? The big problem there was the Bosnian Serbs wanted independence. The U.S., NATO, and the U.N. said no, while supporting limited military actions to prevent the Serbs from advancing on their goals for autonomy. In Kosovo, ethnic Albanians want independence from the Serbs. We said yes -- and even went to war to support their bid for self-determination. Now what's the difference? Is it only Serb independence movements we oppose? Is it only radical Islamic independence movements we support? What's the principle for which we are fighting? -Joseph Farah
In the fog of war propaganda, let us remember the facts. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is in the wrong. NATO is in violation of the United Nations Charter, which forbids military aggression against a sovereign state at peace with its neighbors. Yugoslavia was at peace with its neighbors.... The United States, which has orchestrated this war against Yugoslavia, has no legitimate vital, strategic or even marginal interests in the Balkans.... Clinton has poisoned the future. People who said character doesn't matter were wrong. - Charley Reese
Listen, my fellow Americans, this criminal psychopath in the White House is well on the way to bringing this nation to our knees. He has stripped the military of half their most vital supplies, overcommitted them all over the globe, sold our best and most deadly technology to our sworn enemies, committed the nation to spending vast sums we can ill afford to finance his dangerous and ill-advised foreign adventures, and put us at risk in the face of the open hostility of such nuclear-armed foes as North Korea and China. This Kosovo business could well sound the death knell for America. It has got to stop. Now. Before it's too late. - Phil Brennan
Is anyone for this war besides Clinton, some of the Congress, and the media, especially the media? I don't understand why the media have endorsed this war so solidly! I have not talked to a single person that believes we should be there. Is it just me, or is it this way all over? - Wayne Mann
The Congress shall have Power.... To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years; To provide and maintain a Navy; To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces.... - U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8.
The war was started unilaterally by a discredited, impeached President, devoid of any moral authority.... a proven liar, held in contempt, who has bombed a sovereign nation which has never remotely threatened the United States or any of its allies or interests.... Mr. Clinton's aggression was not authorized or recommended by the Constitution, by the United Nations, by Congress or even by his own military advisers. He has tried to justify the wholesale slaughter of innocent people as a "moral imperative". What utter nonsense. Is he giving himself a pep talk? All he has done is united a divided Yugoslavia behind President Milosevic and ensured that US troops have to sort out the mess he has created.... As the rest of the world already knows, he is, of course, quite insane. - Steve Myers
The political and military asses currently leading NATO into its first defeat are displaying a degree of cowardice and incompetence unseen in Europe since the 1930s. Unable to win this war without committing ground troops - which should have been done six weeks ago - NATO keeps hoping its futile, 'lite' bombing will give it a bloodless victory. Meanwhile, the alliance is cracking apart as its weak sisters whine for peace at any price with the Balkan nazis who are burning people alive, running rape camps, and committing what the UN calls 'near genocide'. - Eric Margolis
We have started a war to protect a people, and we know that, far from being protected, the people are being slaughtered and driven destitute from their homes to starve in the hills. We know that there is no sign that Serb forces are being hurt enough to force their retreat. But we must stick to the plan. We must fly high in the air, even if this means that we cannot effectively kill Serb troops who are killing ethnic Albanians, and even if this means that we ourselves sometimes kill ethnic Albanians by mistake, as NATO has finally admitted. We must not send in soldiers. Because these things are dangerous. We could get hurt. - Michael Kelly
Clinton's war in Kosovo will cost at least $8 billion,wreaking havoc on the U.S. economy and sucking up the lives of a generation for yet another useless war abroad. If we had offered $800 million to Milosevic for all of Kosovo, the fat communist might have taken the money and called us "suckers". If we had spent $800 million arming the Maoist heroin smugglers that portray themselves as the Kosovar Liberation Army (KLA) then Milosevic would be fighting for his life in the streets of Belgrade. Clinton's "McWar" in Kosovo is in his classic Waco-kid style. Bomb Kosovo to save Kosovo. Burn the women and children alive to keep them from being abused by that mean old bad guy. Create the crisis and then rush in (with cameras rolling) to solve the crisis. - Charles R. Smith
Clinton has managed to single-handedly revive the Cold War. - Mikhail Gorbachev
[Clinton's] political motives are so blatant that they would be farcical if we weren't talking about the lives of American soldiers.... There wasn't that much respect for the man to begin with. What little there was is long gone now. - Arnold Crittendon [retired intelligence analyst]
I've been around the military for more than 30 years and I have never seen morale this low. Bill Clinton has destroyed the soul of our armed forces. - Al Simonson [former Navy captain]
Bill Clinton and his North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies are racists, I presume. Let's be logical. They justified NATO's unprecedented and illegal attack on a sovereign state on the basis that 2,000 dead in a civil war constituted a humanitarian crisis sufficient to justify going to war. Well, 700,000 Tutsis were slaughtered -- men, women, children and babies -- in Rwanda, and that only rated a bit of rhetoric from Clinton and his racist buddies. By my math, that means that, in their minds, one European life is more valuable than 350 black lives.... I point this out because it is always important to know when your government is lying. I don't know what the real reason for the attack on Yugoslavia is, but it darn sure isn't because of a humanitarian crisis. - Charley Reese
This week the TV has been filled with images from Denver, of kids who bombed their high school and slaughtered their classmates, followed immediately by images of blasted Belgrade and skyscrapers burning.... If I thought more highly of the president, I might rest a speck easier about it all and could hope that, holding the special position of responsibility that is his, and being a wise leader and great statesman, he would certainly be doing the right thing. But when he speaks, I hear only sanctimonious gibberish, and the feeling haunts me that he hasn't a clue, that no one is minding the store, and that things are getting "curiouser and curiouser" with every turn of the planet on its axis. - Barry Bercier
I here repeat my charge that the associates of Bill Clinton were actively, and with taxpayers' money, spreading false information against truthful female witnesses. They sought to destroy the characters of these women by off-the-record briefings, and by underhanded denunciations. - Christopher Hitchens << eom |
