“I think Senator Hutchison, probably more than any other Senator, has been very diligent expressing concern and alerting the Senate and the Congress and the American people as to our commitments abroad, what is in our vital national security interests, and the problems we have talked about regarding an overcommitment. The Senator has come to me on repeated occasions when proposing amendments. Sometimes she has withdrawn them, and other times she has proceeded but always prompting a debate on the Senate floor where there literally has been none in regard to our military policy and when we commit the use of force. She has pointed out, I think in excellent fashion, the paradox of the enormous irony that we have in Bosnia where we are supporting a partitioned kind of society among three ethnic groups, or nationalities; whereas, just to the south, in Kosovo, our goal is to somehow promote a multiethnic society where the divisions are at least equal to that in Bosnia.”
