I agree with you on this. I also believe that the treaty is in the
long-term best interests of the country, which is why it received such
widespread bipartisan support. Clinton took a lot of heat from members
of his own party in order to do the statesmanlike thing instead of
taking the road of political expediency.
Of course this all occurred before the yapping republican dogs started
their witch hunt and crippled his presidency.

But the bottom line is that the republicans could not have passed it
if Clinton didn't push it. If Bush had been reelected, I doubt that
he could have gotten it passed through the democrat controlled
congress. Clinton made it his own, and got the democratic congress to
pass it.

Ignoring all the support from Republicans for the bill is dishonest.
