Intereesting transcript, Don't you think?

From Meet the Depressed.....

Tom Brokaw, Ted Koppel: Clinton Would Have Gone Into Iraq, Too


Broadcast veterans Tom Brokaw and Ted Koppel agree that Bill Clinton would have gone into Iraq just like George Bush if he were still president in 2003.

Appearing on "Meet the Press” with Tim Russert, Brokaw and Koppel also agreed that the press shouldn't be judged too harshly for not pursuing questions about claims of Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq.

According to a transcript appearing in Editor & Publisher, Koppel defended the media’s treatment of the WMD claims:

KOPPEL: In large measure, when the president and his top people tell you, as they did, "Here's our perception of what exists. Here's our perception of the danger to the United States. Here's our perception of a relationship between this guy who has weapons of mass destruction and the group that just blew up the Pentagon and the World Trade Center," I don't know that reporters as a whole can sit there and say, "Oh, hokum. You know, it's just not true ... "


BROKAW: The French intelligence were sharing the same conclusions with the administration. I thought – I agree with you that I don't think that we pushed hard enough for vigorous debate. I think that on Capitol Hill that the debate was anemic, at best ...

RUSSERT: [Congress was] not questioning whether Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

BROKAW: No. No. No.

RUSSERT: That seemed to be a uniformly held belief.

BROKAW: Right. Yeah.


KOPPEL: Nor did the Clinton administration beforehand.

BROKAW: No.

KOPPEL: I mean, the only difference between the Clinton administration and the Bush administration was 9/11.

BROKAW: Right.

KOPPEL: If 9/11 had happened on Bill Clinton's watch, he would have gone into Iraq.

BROKAW: Yeah. Yeah.

Nobody is denying that WJC was a liar.

Women do not smell like tuna. If what you're sniffin' smells like tuna, you need to call the doctor, because something is very, very wrong.

It's not about lying, it is about being wrong, and not being able to show what was done with them.

However, I don't think Clinton or Gore would have liberated Iraq or Afghanistan. I think they would have shot a few cruise missles and declared that good enough.

SH was actively supporting terrorism.
