It's Official

Now we know what the world would be like if Clark were sitting in the Oval Office in 2001 because he would not have voted (and presumably as president, asked) for the congressional resolution authorizing the use of force in Iraq.

If so, the world would be a much different place if the Dems were in the White House: Osama would be mocking the impotence of the Americans from his cushy Kabul home, I'd cringe at the sound of every aircraft flying overhead, you'd wake up in the night wondering if that distant thunder was, instead, a power plant blowing up and our French allies would be saying "we told you so".

OK, so maybe there would be at least one similarity.

I have to believe that the recent campaigns in the war on terror have made our homeland less prone to attack. While the focus is on the soil of the enemy, America enjoys rest.

It's hard to believe that Clark would have preferred to leave Saddam in power, continuing to imprison children and allowing the Iraqi Olympic committee led by Uday to continue its bloody ways.
