You know, it is easy to forget the 'promises' that Bill and Hillary made while in office. It strikes home when it is listed like this:

After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six and injured 1000; President Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

BUSH COVERED IT!

Wrong. The people responsible were hunted down and punished under Clinton's administration. Ramzi Yousef is sitting in a Supermax prison right now. Here is some more information.

After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

BUSH COVERED IT!

Did he? Where is the proof? Do you honestly believe that we are any safer from terrorism in the Middle East?

After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

BUSH COVERED IT!

once again, where is the proof? I want to know WHO was responsible, and how were they punished? Bin Laden has not been brought to justice, Al Qaida is still active.... please explain how 'Bush Covered it"

After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000; Clinton promised that those responsible! would be hunted down and punished.

BUSH COVERED IT!

After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

BUSH COVERED IT!

More of the same. Proof to back those statements up or are you just talking out your ass?

Maybe if Clinton had kept his promise, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington, D.C. that are now dead would be alive today.

BUSH TOLD THOSE FIREMAN -- THEY WOULD HEAR US TOO!

And, now that Bush is taking action to bring these people to justice, we have Democrats charging him with being a war monger...

Iraq had nothing to do with the WTC attacks. NOTHING. Men and Women from America are over there getting KILLED. FOR WHAT? Non-existant WMDs?

AN INTERESTING QUESTION: This question was raised on a Philly radio call-in show. Without casting stones, it is a legitimate question. there are two men, both extremely wealthy. One develops relatively cheap software and gives billions of dollars to charity. The other sponsors terrorism. That being the case, why was it that the Clinton administration spent more money chasing down Bill Gates over the past eight years than Osama bin Laden?

Proof that the Clinton administration spent more money on Microsoft than military operations to find Bin Laden? Just because they were not public doesn't mean they weren't happening... and look what the Bush Administration's strategy did, trying to attack Ants with a sledgehammer. Now Bin Laden is in hiding, Al Qaida is mad, and its only a matter of time before something happens again. Yeah, great job Bush!

THINK ABOUT IT!

It is a strange turn of events. Hillary gets $8 Million for her forthcoming memoir. Bill gets about $12 Million for his memoir yet to be written. This from two people who have spent the past 8 years being unable to recall anything about past events while under oath!

Sincerely, Cmdr Hamilton McWhorter USN(ret)

Just like Bush can't seem to recall where those darn WMD's went, huh?

Say what you want about Clinton, but their adminstration left Bush with all the info he needed on Bin Laden. Bush chose to ignore it, and look where we ended up.

1. Iraq *wasn't* a threat to the U.S.
2. Saddam was *NOT* likely to give WMD to terrorists
3. Iraq wasn't filled with terrorists.
You're just repeating the rhetoric. All three are on the contrary. It helps if you don't throw facts away to make points. Those actors you see on TV aren't the majority of intelligent people with a great deal of knowledge on the issue.

Bush has no problem sending 500 soldiers to die and then not attending a single one of their funerals.

what's more interesting than the comparison is that after 11,200+ posts, Brutuskend still can't post in the right forum.
