Dean Supported Unilateral Action in Bosnia

LDE seems to have seen some explanation from Dean, which I have not. So I suspect he can say that. I guess I tend to think the situations were different. Dean obviously is not a career diplomat, but he, like Bush, was a governor of a border state without any other apparent interest or background relating to foreign policy, and you guys seem to think Bush worked out all right. If you're really concerned about consistency, you could noodle about Bush's complaints about "nation building" during the presidential campaign -- at least Dean's comments go back several years.
