Speaking of "blame it on Bill"............... Here is an excerpt from a book by Dick Morris (a former consultant to President Clinton). You can read the entire chapter at the link below........it is a very interesting read to say the least. vote.com How Clinton Left Ticking Terror Time Bombs For Bush To Discover by Dick Morris Iraq: Saddam Plays Clinton When George H. W. Bush handed the White House over to Bill Clinton, Saddam Hussein was as completely under wraps as it is possible for a foreign leader of a sovereign state to be. His nation was blocked from selling oil and swarming with U.N. inspectors. Without revenue or the privacy in which to rearm, Saddam and his shattered military posed little international threat. But when Clinton passed power to Bush's son eight years later, Iraq was frantically rearming, its coffers bulging with $40-$60 million income daily from the sale of 2 million barrels of oil. Arms inspectors were nowhere to be found, having been thrown out of the country by the Iraqi dictator. Saddam was building a war machine that would once again frighten the world with its potential for deadly weapons of mass destruction. How did Saddam get Clinton to let him off the mat? It was like taking candy from a baby. vote.com
