Sorry, Carol. I mean Clinton lied, but he repeated it enough that people believed him anyway.

I agree with this.

Clinton perjured himself when he was a defendant in sexual harrassment suit, one of several sexual harrassment charges he's faced. Still you think he was impeached for having consentual sex, not for felony perjury, don't you?

No. That's not what I think.

That's the lie

That's hardly the only one.

Carol, read my post three posts up. Politics be damned. This isn't going to happen because we simply can't do it. We don't have the military power. That's my considered opinion and unless you can show me where we have the capability to do what you think these people are up to, it will remain my considered opinion.

It doestn't really matter what our capabilities are right now. They can and will change. Count on it.

What you say reminds me of a child who thinks her parents were cruel for not giving her a unicorn for Christmas. Nothing will change the child's mind about their cruelty and the fact that the unicorn doesn't exist doesn't enter into consideration for her. Here, the unicorn is the US's capability to do the things we would have to do to usher in the New American Century. That that military capability doesn't exist doesn't enter into your thoughts on the matter, does it?

Now Strick. There's no need to be like that. You remind me of that child also, only with you, it's your belief that the US government is as benign as you think it is that is the unicorn.
