BUSH SR., CLINTON TO LEAD POST-WAR IRAQ TEAM
"We Will Rebuild Iraq," Former Presidents Promise
 Homeland HQ (formerly Washington, D.C.) - (GNS)
- Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton will lead the team that will rebuild Iraq, Secretary of State Colin Prowl announced today.
     "If you're going to create democracy, what better way than with a Republican and a Democract?" Prowl said.
     Bush said he was up to the task.
     "When my son calls, I hop to. He's the president now, you know," Bush said.
     Clinton said he was grateful to be included.
     "I know many of the Republicans think of me as someone who spent my eight years getting blowjobs, but I dropped a fair share of bombs on Iraq, too. I've got the credentials," he said.
     Both presidents admitted building democracy in a war-torn state populated by devoutly religious people of fiercely different views would not be easy.
     "You've got your Shee-yites, Soonies, Kerds and I don't know what else," Bush said. "But I think if we can get them to think of themselves as Baptists and Presbyterians and Episcopalians, we can get them to live together in peace."
     Clinton said the key would first be to meet with as many Iraqis as possible and "feel their pain".
     Bush said his son Neil and others involved in the S&L scandals of the late 80s would accompany him as part of the team. Clinton said Dick Morris would accompany him.
     "These folks have to learn democracy includes the possibility of excess liberty, corporate theft, greed, and hypocrisy," Bush said. "It's not all a thousand points of light."
     Prowl said the two presidents and their team would be flown to Kuwait City, then into Baghdad.
     "It's a first," Prowl said, "and this time Bush will certainly be in the loop."
