30. Exactly right. Think about it: How many times...
Edited on Sat Aug-23-03 11:26 AM by TrueBlueDem
...in history have lame duck presidents (during the time after losing re-election but before leaving office) committed troops to a brand-spanking new war?

None that I can think of, other than Poppy Bush.

Somalia was a hot-potato quagmire made to order to spite the Democrat who beat the old coot out of a second term.

`Just another example of the Bush Family squandering the lives of American troops for their own petty, personal reasons.

(edited for spelling.)
