Bush kept us safe from terrorism.

lol!

more people hate us = safe?

How many attacks on US soil were there from 11 Sep 2001 to 20 Jan 2009?

How many attacks were there on US citizens from March 2003 until the present in Iraq from those deemed terrorists?

But he's still keeping us safe....unless you were in the military and thought that the president would only fight justified battles.

Edit: If you are going to try to take credit for domestic policy, then you had better own up to the foreign policies as well.

I guess you forget that

1. The Senate was controlled by Democrats during much of those 9 months.
2. Gore was trying to steal the election.

If reality is too rough, just make up something new!

I love seeing the people jump all over Carter while simultaneously defending Reagan. The fact that Carter could possibly be worse then a president who sold weapons to Iran to fund terrorism is hilarious.

Nothing made up at all. A guy who knows he won on November 4th obviously has more time to prepare than the guy who has to fend off a sore loser for a month and a half.

Oh, I guess you've forgotten Carter's stagflation.

9/11 would have happened regardless of who was the president at the time. The hatred had built up over a long period of time.

I don't think anyone can dispute that.

But I would like to think that 8-9 months of serious consideration from someone as powerful as the PoTUS could have affected the outcome of 9/11 in some beneficial way, compared to what actually occurred.

I think it's fair to wager that the second iteration of Iraq wouldn't have happened regardless of who was president at the time though. Presidents like that only come around so often, guys like Cheney have to act!

Cheney...and Joe Lieberman?
