Debbie sent this in from the History News Network:
Evidence that history is richly ironic: Last Spring CLS Publishing -- a famously anti-Clinton organ ("The Clinton Atrocities," "Davidian Massacre," etc. etc.) -- sent out a flier advertising its latest publications. Among CLS's pithy observations ...
"As of the date of this production (June 21, 2001), since Clinton left office, there have been no terrorist bombings of World Trade Centers, US Naval vessels, US embassies, or federal buildings; no major airplane crashes and no untimely deaths of government officials -- unlike ANY five month period during the entire 8 years that the Clintons were in power."The HNN site also relates the following excerpt from a Bush speech to the Japanese Diet on 2/18/02:
"My trip to Asia begins here in Japan for an important reason. It begins here because for a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times."There was that pesky little spat we had, but other than that, we've been great friends for the last 150 years.
