and the only reason Clinton skipped the UN is because a resolution would have been vetoed by Russia, who considers itself the Serbs' blood brother No! Tell me it isn't so! Clinton "went it alone"? How can this be? The United States acted Unilaterally? Russia didn't agree with the way we run our wars? Liberals.

Al, what we've always suspected looks to be very true! LOL ted ___________________________________________________________ english.pravda.ru BUSH’S IQ INFERIOR TO AVERAGE MAN’S Among US presidents who have run the country over the last 50 years, George W. Bush appears to have the lowest Intelligence Quotient (IQ). His IQ has proved lower than that of the average American citizen. According to the British press, the finding has been obtained by researchers from the State of Pennsylvania. Mr. Bush’s IQ makes up as little as 91 points, which is exactly half of his immediate predecessor Bill Clinton’s IQ (182 points). By the way, Mr. Clinton takes 1st place in the US president list by this parameter. Interestingly, Democrats prevail on the list. In calculating the IQ, the scientists analyzed the following indices: academic performance in school and college, independently (without anybody’s assistance) prepared publications, speech lucidity, and psychological parameters. The mean IQ value of man varies within the range of 100 points. Apart from George W. Bush, this level has not been exceeded by only one ex-president, his father, Mr. Bush Sr. Below are IQs of 12 US presidents, starting from 1945. Bill Clinton – 182, Jimmy Carter- 175, John F. Kennedy – 174, Richard Nixon- 155, Franklin D. Roosevelt – 147, Harry S. Truman – 132, Lyndon B. Johnson- 126, Dwight D. Eisenhower – 122, Gerald Ford – 121, Ronald Reagan – 105, George Bush – 98.

Al, <Three years of concentration camps, sieges, civilian mass graves, ethnic cleansing, and all manner of other awful crimes.> And what makes these horrors so different than those that occurred on Iraqi soil? <Clinton would never allow dislike for America to reach the levels seen today under Bush.> Well of course not. Clinton's entire foreign policy was based on the notion that "Image is everything." Heck, even his cruise missile attack on Osama did nothing but convey the image that he was taking a tough stance against terrorism. And let's not forget how Clinton only fought back with words when Saddam first kicked out the inspectors back in 1998. As for Kosovo, Clinton played the moral hypocrisy of Europeans rather well. No surprise, given his own moral shortcomings and how the war was also meant to divert attention away from his own impeachment. Tenchusatsu
