That's what BUSHCO always insisted.
Was it not Clinton that signed into law in 1998 the Iraqui Freedom Act, and planned on invading Iraq in 2000, and then changed his mind due to the election?
"The result was a strategy paper that he had presented to Berger and the other national security "principals" on Dec. 20. But Berger and the principals decided to shelve the plan and let the next Administration take it up. With less than a month left in office, they did not think it appropriate to launch a major initiative against Osama bin Laden. "We would be handing [the Bush Administration] a war when they took office on Jan. 20," says a former senior Clinton aide. "That wasn't going to happen." Now it was up to Rice's team to consider what Clarke had put together."
"Bush Senior went into Somalia with 20 thousand US troops in December, 1992 when he had been defeated in his re-election bid by Bill Clinton and was a lame-duck President. Why such a major overseas undertaking by an outgoing president was a question that perplexed many. He went in there to save the interest of US oil giants from his native Texas. After all, he had made his fortunes in the oil industry before making a mark in politics. The powerful and influence-peddling oil cartel had bankrolled him into politics, and he was anxious to pay back in kind. He might have lost his own bid for re-election but he had sons waiting in the wings to inherit his mantle. He had to lubricate their passage into high-stakes politics by obliging his powerful friends."
No. You're thinking of Richard Clarke.
They had no desire to do a "Daddy Bush".
Yes, the war on Iraq was planned a long time before the Government started lying about WMD and the need for regime change.
Point is, Clinton supported the invasion of Iraq. This was long before Bush 43 was elected.
