I saw someone post this picture in r.s.s. Apparently, the guy was upset that he wasn't let in a pool in Czechoslovakia where he was visiting (he's from the U.S.) Have you seen these kind of signs elsewhere? Not that I'm against them, I'm perfectly fine wearing the "approved" attire.

My biggest (and really only) complaint about the Clinton presidency was his lack of involvement in Rwanda. I don't like the selective nature in which the US polices the rest of the world. If oil is involved you bet will be there, but when MILLIONS of people are being slaughtered in Africa do we go intervene? No we look the other way. That is my issue. If the US wants to be the world police they need to police the world not just select parts.
First, I find it surprising that his utter lack of a moral compass doesn't bother folks. He lied to the nation and his wife and his kid and cheated on his wife. Why does the left forget that there is no excuse for this? If you don't have a moral leader, you have an immoral nation. I'm embarrassed I voted for a man that showed such abyssmal judgement to those he loved the most. Rwanda his biggest failing, that's laughable, when he committed adultery left and right.
Second, if the world needs us to police them, they they should pay some of our taxes. We can't do everything for everyone with our resources. Give me a break! At some point, countries have to take responsibility for even part of their own actions. We will always select where we go and some will always complain. For every 1 place we commit hundreds of millions of dollars there's 100 other places that need us just as much. Every day isn't Christmas for the rest of the world and we're not Santa.
