One day Clinton is going to give a speech at an Elementary School. He asks the teacher what the children are studying and she replies that they are learning about Greek Tragedies. So the President decides to talk about Tragedies.
He asks a student, "What would you consider to be a tragedy?"
The kid thinks for awhile and then says, " If a boy is running after a ball into a street and gets run over by a car and dies."
Clinton responds, "No, I don't think that's a tragedy... that's an
accident."
Then Clinton asks another kid to give an example of a tragedy.
The kid says, "If a bus full of kids drives over a cliff and they all
die."
This time Clinton says, "I don't think that's a tragedy... I think
that's a great loss."
So again Clinton asks another kid to give an example of a tragedy.
The kid responds, "If you, Hillary, and Al Gore are on Air Force One and it crashes."
"Right!" says Clinton to the kid. "That would be a tragedy... how did you ever know that?"
Quickly, the kid replies, " Because I know it's not an accident and I know it's not a great loss."

Somali casualty figures are unknown, but American estimates are that between 1,000 and 1,500 Somali militiamen and civilians lost their lives in the battle, with injuries to another 3,000-4,000. The book Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War estimates more than 700 Somali militiamen dead and more than 1,000 wounded. Eighteen American soldiers died and 73 were wounded (another American soldier, Delta team leader SFC Matt Rierson was killed in a mortar attack two days later). Among UN forces, 1 Malaysian soldier died and 7 were wounded, along with 2 Pakistanis.

Yes, Bush sent troops in 92 to Somalia. But it was during Bill Clinton that the events in Mogadishu happened. It was Bill Clinton who did nothing to retaliate. Armed Radicals killed our troops yet Slick Willie did nothing except, well, we all know what he prefered to do in the oval office with his interns.

No, dude. That happened in '93. It was Bill Clinton. In many ways it set the stage for his use of military power for the rest of his presidency.

Bush Sr sent our troops their to fight ALONGSIDE Muslim radicals.
You can't run from that fact.
Here's some truth for deluded Bush-supporters:
"Bush's last months in office were busy ones. In December 1992, he dispatched U.S. Marines to Somalia, to ensure that relief supplies reached its starving people, caught up in civil war. "
