I would like to clarify that, aside from the "Clinton Body Count," those are all very valid arguments. What I don't agree with is associating those with "When Clinton lied ..."

Waco was a screwup, the (possible) lies came after it, when government agents denied having accidentally set the fire with hot tear gas cans.

The Balkans, a campaign launched by NATO, not Clinton himself, which involved some clear accusations and evidence of genocide, not lies and crappy intelligence.

The bombing in Iraq was announced a month beforehand, and Clinton explicitly stated that it would occur if thhe inspectors were not allowed back in.

The asprin factory was a big fuck-up. Someone didn't double-check, and pesticide residue showed up as a VX gas precursor. This was an honest mistake, unlike, let's say, the yellowcake uranium scam, which was completely fabricated with no factual basis.
