The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other. The one that's out always looks the best.

[That's still true. Thanks for the insight Will.]

You saying that the Democrat Party(the one that is out - way out)is looking the BEST these days?   I guess you mean they look like pretty good lunatics....

Clinton did more than any other President to combat terrorism. Bush's "Operation Ignore the Problem" didn't work worth a darn.

I've gotta agree.  If I were a Democrat, the only vote I could cast with a clear conscience this primary would be for Lieberman.

why don't you try and list attacks on americans since bush has been in office. you are gonna need about 100 times as much space. since we declared war on a noun.


and i love how you guys cut and past other people stuff you have "been sitting on"


give a source or stfu. stop stealing peoples work, as you obviously didnt compose it. even if the source is easily discredited.

p.s. isreali citizens who carry u.s. citizenship arn't. as their first loyalty is to their country not mine. personal thing admittedly.

I'm glad you asked....

1993 - WTC #1 - Captured tried and convicted the perps.
(the same perps were planning to kill the Pope and to blow up 12 US airliners simultaneously. didn't happen.

Clinton tripled the counterterrorism budget for the FBI and doubled counterterrorism funding overall.

Both very successful crime bills included anti-terror provisions.

His was the 1st administration to coordinate Nationwide simulations to test preparedness of local response teams for terrorist attacks.

Created the 1st nationwide stockpile of vaccines including 40 million doses of smallpox vaccine.

When Clinton asked for even more funding in 1996 Orin Hatch (R) said " The administration would be wise to utilize the resources already provided before asking for more."

Clinton asked for increased wiretap authority after the Oklahoma City bombing... Gingrich helped shut it down. (Can you say "Patriot Act"?)

Immediately after the embassy bombings in Kenya Clinton issued a Presidential directive authorizing the assasination of OBL.

Clinton appointed Richard Clark as the 1st National Antiterrorism Coordinator.

Before Clinton left office he directed Clark to come up with a plan...That plan was presented to Condi and GWB and it included....
1. Attack and break up Al Quaida cells
2. Attack financial support freeze assets.
3. Assist other Govt's having Al Quaida trouble (Yemen, Phillipines and Uzbekistan)
4. Scale up covert action in Afghanistan to eliminate training camps and get to Bin Laden
5. Support the Northern Alliance and palce special forces on the ground in Afghanistan.

(exactly what Bush decided to do..... too late)

Bush executed the plan Clinton 'was sitting on.'

PS:  Ditto Martlet.  If I was to vote Democrat - JL would be the one I would support.  Seems to be the only level headed candidate of the bunch.

" such as warnings from FBI offices in Minnesota and Arizona about suspicious student pilots.
"
all else is the babbling of scared extremists.

Yeah I'm sure Condi was aware of every last document created by the FBI in the last 20 years.  Talk about spin Mrlars, sweat jeasious.

It probably was preventable. If only we'd recognized the threat  many years earlier and taken steps to infiltrate these terrorist organizations sooner. But hey, let's just blame Bush and stick our heads in the sand.

Geez Saurdaukar, didn't you see the setup?  I can understand if you did and wanted to see the arguement anyway.  But with a moniker like that I hope you saw it.
