When Can We Try Him For Treason?

Disgraced former President Bill Clinton, once again, had better steer clear of North Carolina, home of the United States Marines. According to this story, he received a standing ovation after telling a bunch of Arabs that going to Iraq was a "big mistake."

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Former President Clinton told Arab students Wednesday the United States made a "big mistake" when it invaded Iraq, stoking the partisan debate back home over the war.

Clinton cited the lack of planning for what would happen after Saddam Hussein was overthrown.

Former U.S. President Bill Clinton speaks during the memorial ceremony marking the tenth anniversary of the assassination of the late Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin at the Mount Hertzl military cemetery in Jerusalem Monday Nov. 14, 2005.

"Saddam is gone. It's a good thing, but I don't agree with what was done," Clinton told students at a forum at the American University of Dubai.

"It was a big mistake. The American government made several errors ... one of which is how easy it would be to get rid of Saddam and how hard it would be to unite the country."

Clinton's remarks came when he was taking questions about the U.S. invasion, which began in 2003. His response drew cheers and a standing ovation at the end of the hour-long session.

Why is Clinton going to the Middle East and telling ARABS this while we still have tens of thousands of soldiers on the ground in Iraq? This absolutely boggles my mind. This man was a disgrace as a president, and is now one as a former president.

If he wants to be friends with the Arabs at the expense of our own military men and women, why doesn't he just do like Michael Jackson and move to Bahrain. That seems to be the hip place for disgraced sexual predators these days. And good riddance it would be at that.
