This seems to be your fallacious tactic in every debate: Build a strawman.
Still waiting to hear your evidence that Al Gore is a terrorist.
Clinton is responsible for his personal indiscretions. It was no worse than McCain/Iseman.
You people are responsible for dragging them into the public for two years, two years where we should have been focusing on Al Qaeda.
And, who was Clinton going after with those bombs? Oh, right, nobody important, just Bin Laden.
he was "wagging the dog," remember?
But, that bombing was unacceptable to you people because it was much better, politically, to focus on clinton's schlong.
Why Bush didn't do anything, at all, to stop 9/11 is beyond speculation.
I believe we should focus on destroying terrorists, not spreading the ideology, as Bush has done in Iraq.

HOMELAND SECURITY
In September 1998, the Intelligence Community obtained information that Usama Bin Laden's next operation could involve flying an aircraft loaded with explosives into a U.S. airport and detonating it; this information was provided to senior U.S. Government officials in late 1998.
In the fall of 1998, the Intelligence Community received additional information concerning a Bin-Laden plot involving aircraft in the New York and Washington, DC, areas;
In November 1998, the Intelligence Community learned that a Bin Laden was attempting to recruit a group of five to seven young men from the United States to strike U.S. domestic targets.
In the spring of 1999, the Intelligence Community learned about a planned Bin Laden attack on a U.S. Government facility in Washington, DC.
Additionally, in 1999, the threat of an explosive-laden aircraft being used in a suicide attack against the Pentagon, CIA headquarters, or the White House, was noted in a Library of Congress report to the National Intelligence Council.
In late 1999, the Intelligence Community learned of Bin Laden's possible plans to attack targets in Washington, DC, and New York City during the New Year's Millennium celebrations.
On December 14, 1999, an individual named Ahmed Ressam was arrested as he attempted to enter the United States from Canada with detonator materials in his car. Ressam's intended target was Los Angeles International Airport. Ressam, who has links to Usama Bin Laden's terrorist network, has not been formally sentenced yet.
In March 2000, the Intelligence Community obtained information regarding the types of targets that operatives in Bin Laden's network might strike. The Statue of Liberty was specifically mentioned, as were skyscrapers, ports, and airports, and nuclear power plants;}

4 actual attacks on Americans overseas, 8 credible threats to attack U.S. soil even specifying airliners and the eventual targets, how much more did the Clinton administration need to pull their heads out of their collective behinds? This went on over the course of both of his terms, 1993 - 2001. Then after 9/11 they all jump around saying they didn't do it, they did everything they could (Name one). Able Danger even knew who three of the 9/11 hijackers were in spring of 2000. Funny how they knew the name of Mohammed Atta two days after 9/11. Clinton walked away as 3000 people died because of his abject dereliction of duty to do ANYTHING but pleasure himself with interns, now THAT is disgraceful!

Feds think they've identified some hijackers
September 13, 2001 Posted: 11:53 PM EDT (0353 GMT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Federal investigators believe they know the names of the some of those involved in commandeering two airliners out of Boston Tuesday and steered them into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York, sources told CNN Wednesday.
Information found in another rental car left in Boston's Logan Airport -- where two of the hijacked flights originated -- led investigators to two more men who were pilots: Mohammed Atta and Marwan Yousef Alshehhii.
Police issued a lookout alert for two cars -- a 1989 two-door red Pontiac with the license plate D79-DDV or DVD and a four-door Oldsmobile with the license plate VEP-54N. A vehicle registration record obtained by CNN showed the Pontiac was registered to Atta.

Let me get this straight, Atta rents a car instead of driving one of his own two cream puff cars. He would only do that in attempt to hide his identity, then he leaves incriminating papers in the car????? Is anyone else buying that?
