Borzou - the pharmaceutical factory attack wasn't criminal - just stupid. Now, having said that, the fact that he kept his plan from most of the more qualified members of his staff also points up something that we should all be concerned about: Apparently, Mr. Clinton does not think everyone in his administration is worthy of his trust. Could it be that the administration is in meltdown over some of the member's lack of trust for our "liar in chief?"

Funny - lying may really count in the minds of some people.

Mr. K.

what they giveth they may taketh away...

Note from the grammar police: "giveth" is 3rd person singular; "givest" is 2nd person singular; in 1st person singular and plurals, it is "give." Thus:

What they give they may take away.

Shame on you, Borzou! Tsk, tsk!

Otherwise, on your substantive points, you are right, of course. :-)

In addition, I would question the right of the United States to take any unilateral act of this kind, even if it seems "justified." We have done so many times in the pre-Clinton past, of course. But what if some other country decided to follow our example?

Borzou,

I thought it was alright as long as it's purpose was to cover up a sexcapade between two consenting adults. ER
