e.t. you wish to reduce all issue to a binary good and bad based upon some e.t. value system. Well in the real world issues have many facets and the question is one of creating the best good possible. The first President Bush did what he promised to do and did not fail to finish off Saddam. A choice honor was made to follow what was agreed to.

When the Soviet Union had the power and expressed an ideology to destroy America the dealing with less then boy scouts was a political reality. A dying and wounded animal is the most dangerous and President Reagan was doing everything to kill it in as safe a way as possible. All can look back now and question this and that and was it necessary. All I know is that the Soviet Union is no more and that means millions may be alive today who would have been dead otherwise.

I support and don't attempt to second guess a good and honest man who did what he thought was the best solution to a one hundred sided problem.

I don't support a petty rapist who lied and made America eat his lie. Someone who lied to escape admitting he betrayed his wife and daughter and the American people.
