I'll bet you can't guess who said the following quotes

April 5th, 1999
"No goal, no objective, not until we have those things and a compelling case is made, then I say, back out of it, because innocent people are going to die for nothing. That's why I'm against it."

March 24th, 1999
"Congressman Moran, a couple of things that are in my mind. Number one is the president has really failed to lay out before the American people the reasons why we need to be involved militarily. That's number one.

And then we go back to Henry Kissinger's test, which is number one, is there a vital U.S. national interest? And do we have a plan to disengage? What's the exit strategy? I don't see that we've met that test either. And why does it have to happen this second, this hour? Why don't we have a national debate first?"

March 24, 1999

"But you know what? There's a lot of massacres going on in the world. As you know, 37,000 Kurds in Turkey, over a million people in Sudan. We have hundreds of thousands in Rwanda and Burundi. I mean, where do we stop?"

March 31, 1999

There's no exit strategy...

"But if you know - every mistake we've made up to this point, there's no stated goal. There's no definition of success. All these important things. There's no exit strategy. One mistake after another. Why would you go in deeper when we have not been successful up to this point? That seems to me to be folly."

April 1, 1999

We've hurt them...

"We've hurt the people we thought we were going to help."


April 1, 1999
"Joint chiefs doubted the strategy from the very beginning. And the outline, they didn't think the air campaign would work.

And they turned out to be right. They didn't prepare for the refugee problem. They didn't prepare that Milosevic would up the ante against the ethnic Albanians, none of this. There was no preparation at all here."

These are all Hannity quotes.

Ethnic cleansing is SOOOOO different than (alleged) political cleansing. God, some people just don't get it!!

I read an article recently on how the '88 bombings in Halabja (the one everyone cries foul over) were done using a type of chemical weapon that Iran, and not Iraq, was privvy to. Therefore bringing into intense scrutiny who was responsible. It was more of those damn liberal-conspiracy facts.

I think it's incredibly funny that we're giving the Shiites Iraq.
