Well, call it fair - republicans tried to claim Somalia was "Clinton's War".

US troops have arrived in Somalia in a bid to aid thousands of starving locals.
The American marines landed just before dawn.
Their mission is to spearhead the arrival of 35,000 troops from a dozen countries assembled as part of a US led multi-national operation to crack down on looting and extortion that has prevented food getting through.
