I really don't understand all the hoopla over Clinton taking Fox News' Chris "I'm Not Smirking" Wallace to task the other night.
And I really don't understand Condi Rice coming out today claiming Bush did so much more than Clinton to find Bin Laden. The above graphic is from her testimony before the 9/11 Commission. As Hillary said today, "I'm certain that if my husband and his national security team had been shown a classified report entitled 'Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside the United States' he would have taken it more seriously than history suggests it was taken by our current president and his national security team."

Ahem!
A reasonable person would believe that al-Qaeda BOMBING the World Trade Center on February 26, 1993, the battle of Mogadishu fought on October 3 and 4, 1993, the BOMBINGS of the US base in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in November 1995, Khobar Towers in June 1996, the U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, in August 1998 and the USS Cole in October 2000 should have been far greater indicators than ANY document that al-Qaeda intended to attack the United States.
Why would ANY reasonable person believe that since Bill Clinton had 8 YEARS to prevent these attacks and did NOT that George Bush would be able to do it so 8 MONTHS? There is no doubt al-Qaeda is a difficult enemy to defeat.
The FIRST time al-Qaeda attacked the United States during the Bush Administration direct action was taken against al-Qaeda by George Bush. Credit MUST be given to George Bush for doing something other than sitting around with his thumb up his bum awaiting the next attack by al-Qaeda.
Nope, mzchief isn't Republican. Not a chance. HA!
Hillary Clinton's statement begs the question, WHY with ALL the events her husband witnessed did he NOT do more? Did Bill Clinton fail to take action because he did not receive a "classified report entitled 'Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside the United States'?"

I am NOT a Republican. I have a MUCH greater dislike for the swaggering, self-righteous cowboy and his posse of pompous pricks that currently inhabit the Whitehouse than I did for his smarmy predecessor. However, I am able to remain objective and review facts and draw a fair conclusion.
There is much about BOTH parties that disgusts me. The one that I find MOST disdainful is that the Democrats have become the party of ”NO” and offer FEW solutions and alternatives to the current method of conducting the nation’s business.
I'll try to be succinct. You have three different subjects, only marginally related.
1) Clinton's biggest boast was that he "tried." That was the best he could do. Eight years of "trying."
2) The August 6 PDB mentioned only old matters (going back to 1997, during the Clinton administration, in fact.) Nothing new, nothing urgent, nothing remotely resembling information regarding the September 11 attacks. The only thing sensational about the document is its title. And, by the way, this report was created in response to a request by President Bush for more information after he saw a similar report earlier in the year.
3) Hillary's husband did in fact have the information, along with the opportunity to grab bin Laden. What Bill Clinton or Hillary Clinton say about his presidency is unimportant. They are biased witnesses.
Ultimately, Bill Clinton's performance with Chris Wallace displayed his true character. He boasted about his non-results, lied about his political opponents and mischaracterized other people's work. He could have given a brief, political non-answer, but instead revealed an self-absorbed brat with a fragile ego.
In the words of the Kingston Trio song "The Merry Minuet", I'll just say, "and I don't like anybody very much", as to what I think of BOTH parties in Washington, D.C.!
I guess that song quote dates me!

There is plenty of blame to go around when it comes to the terrorist in America. There have been terrorist cells in our country for over 20 years. Hamas, Hezzbollah, AlQuaeda and AlFuqra. The FBI knows it, the DOJ knows it. Ahmad and Al Hussaini along with other Iraqi Republican guard members were brought to the US after the first Gulf war by Presidents HW Bush and William Clinton.
OTHER FACTS:
McVeigh and Nichols were seen and photographed in Las Vegas meeting with Iraqi recruiter, Khalil at the Horseshoe casino.
Mujahid Abdulqadir Menepta aka Melvin Lattimore, US citizen from St. Louis has long standing direct ties to Hamas, Alfuqra and AlQaeda terror organizationsin the US. After the OKC bombing it was revealed that his credit card was used to buy bomb-making materials for the 1993 WTC bombing.
Matermind of the 1993 WTC, 1995 OKC and 9/11 attacks, Khalid Sheik Mohammed sent 9/11 wannebe Zacharias Moussaoui to live with Lattimore in Norman, Ok while Moussaoui attended the Norman OK Airman flight school. 9/11 hijackers Atta, AlShehhi and AlHazmi were seen with Lattimore at his Norman apartment according to FBI documents. Later Lattimore drove to Minnesota and tried to bail Moussaoui out of jail. This information was never revealed in Moussaoui’s trial.google: Moussaoui trial transcript
Terrorist Anas, Asad Siddiqy, and Mohammed Chafti were seen with McVeigh in OKC moments before the bombing. The three men were arrested and traces of explosives were found by bomb-sniffing dogs. The FBI intervened and the men were released.
Ali Mohammed was convicted for his roles in the 1993 WTC, Tanzanian, and Kenyan embassy bombings attacks but was never convicted for his role in the OKC bombing. Ali is under Federal protective custody. These are only a few facts.
Now that your interest is peaked, google ‘McVeigh ties to terrorist’. It’s all there for your information. One has to wonder: Why are our men/women fighting a war against terror on foreign land, when we can’t win the war against terror in our own country?
All you have to do is look at the wall that Jamie Gorelick built so that the FBI and CIA could not share the information so that this could have been prevented. And who was it that appointed Gorelick? Your boy HillBilly Willy. And she was on the 9/11 Commission instead of being called to testify before it.
10:36AM, Bush let a few people perish by appointing an inept person to a government agency. But it doesn't matter, they were mostly black.
And again by blundering into invading Iraq, but again they don't matter. Not only are they not Judeo-Christian, but they're foreigners.
Bush did not appoint the Mayor of New Orleans. He was elected by the same black folk that he let die by not getting them out. Did you see the buses underwater? Your blog does not hold water. First response belongs to the local government, then the state government and then the federal government. Nice try at slamming Bush but that one has been tried and discounted.
2:02, Why are you changing the subject and not responding to the blogs? Could it be you don't have an answer? It's hard to dispute the truth, isn't it?
HEY ..... Hillary Clinton is the ANTI-CHRIST !!!! (Or at least one of them) Pull your heads out of your asses , it's not that hard to figure out !
