#1 "And why is Bill supporting Bush on this?"

And maybe, just maybe, he is a patriot. Maybe, just maybe, he puts his concern for the people of Iraq, and all the people of the middle east, including Israel, above partisanship. I would note that since leaving office Bill has also been a truth teller about what happened at Taba, undercutting the Arafat apologists. Maybe, just maybe, this self-indulgent, undisciplined, squirelly man, has some real core beliefs about improving the world. Maybe when he said "Shalom, chaver" at Rabin's funeral, he really meant it.

#3 LH,

Can we send the 3rd ID in to investigate whether these allegations (that Bill Clinton is harbori...errr...holding these principles hostage)are true?

#5 Maybe Bill understands that the Dems can't win the next years' elections by calling a referendum on a successful war.Clinton is not doing this for Bush,he's just trying to stop the Democrats from heading off a cliff.

#8 There has been a pretty strong bipartisan tradition of ex-presidents NOT criticizing the current office-holder, regardless of party. It's rare enough that Carter's letter on Iraq was considered a breach of protocol. I would assume Bill is sticking with that tradition. Heck, it's entirely possible Dubya takes his calls and vice versa; Clinton used to get advice from *Nixon*, after all.
