[quote="LionPride";p="98621"][quote="flybynight";p="98593"]havent you ever read blackhawk down ( the book, not the movie, the movie is flawed) clinton had no idea about somalia until after it all happened.

also remember reagen breaking up the union, with the amount of steel and mining in this area so many people in around here is in a workers union[/quote]

Yes, in fact I did. What do you mean he had no idea? He sent the soldiers over there. And as soon as the kitchen got hot politically, he pulled them out before the mission was completed. Now that place is a hotbed for terrorism because the job wasn't completed.

It's been a few years since I read the book, and I can't remember all the names, but at the end of the book they don't speak very highly of Mr. Clinton. Like they said in the book, if it was worth being there before 18 soldiers died, then it was worth it even more to finish that job after they died.

Dems don't see things that way.

Maybe you should re-read the book.[/quote]

Just to revive an older post and a statement I made about Somalia becomming a hotbed for terrorism because of Clinton's failure to finish the job there.

Here's an interesting read:

Wouldn't it be Bush's fault??? I really think we will pay the price for Clinton's actions in office for a long time to come. In my opinion I really don't think Clinton cares about the back lash he created in Rwanda or for anything else he did or didn't do.

The sad thing is that we will be paying double in 2008 in the Hitlary the anti-christ get elected. That will be the blackest day in American history!

Yep, it sounds like this is Clinton's fault. Looks like rain outside, must be Clinton's fault. My vehicle runs like crap, must be Clinton's fault. Had a flat tire bike riding last Thursday, darn that Bill Clinton.

MOGADISHU, Somalia -- In early March, nine of Mogadishu's most prominent leaders secretly flew to neighboring Djibouti and pleaded with U.S. military officials there to stop funding the warlords who were devastating the city. Backing the warlords, they said, would end up strengthening an Islamist militia with a shadowy radical wing.

The Americans ignored their warnings, three of the Somalis who attended the meeting said in separate interviews, and the leaders' fears came to life this month when the Islamic Courts Union militia defeated the warlords and took control of the Somali capital.

Now, the Bush administration's Somalia strategy is in tatters, and the Islamist militia is poised to extend its control to all of southern Somalia, where intelligence officials believe at least two senior Al Qaeda operatives are hiding.

Let me remind you it's the Republicans that run everything. I think it's pretty terrific of the Democrats to put down a plan because the Republicans don't seem to have one of any kind, except a permanent commitment to a failed strategy which we got into because we weren't told the truth. Our plan is this is a transition year, which Republicans have now adopted which I think is great, and there's going to be a redeployment of our troops, some to other countries. I think that's a good plan, I think it's a Democratic plan.

Howard Dean said this, what does it mean????? This guy is totally whacked
