Whatever are you talking about, chief? Be more specific and give me something I can respond to.

I'm also a veteran with 28 years service, going all the way back to the Cuba blockade. I'm not easily intimidated and I certainly don't WORRY about embarassing myself. After all, he who doesn't make a mistake probably doesn't take chances. And he who doesn't take chances has missed many opportunities to learn.

I honor your service, chief, and I'm very sorry for your disability. But don't assume that you know everything and I know nothing. You might embarass yourself.

You might check the terrorist timeline history. Ranzi Yousef and two of his co-conspirators were convicted by the CLINTON ADMINSTRATION for masterminding the 1993 WTC bombing. So he didn't sit idle and do nothing.

What was Yousef's motivation for the WTC bombing? His desire to stop the killing of Arabs by Israelis.


RandallDS, thanks for your support.

Since they cowered away from real fighting, I think bush and cheney have been watching to many RAMBO movies.

Thank you John Kerry for telling the world we are NOT united behind that monster, Bush.

Their sacrifices will be in vain, because nothing they have fought and died for will ever be reciprocated by this greedy administration. They are war profiteers and the only thing they care about is the bottom line. In the end they will not own Iraq so why care.

It is shameful to see the wool pulled over your eyes by the Fascists. Maybe you should honor the LIVING.

Oh yea John, At least George did not get "Swift Boated" by his own party!

Um, neither did Kerry, so what's your point? Besides republicans in the Senate are working themselves to take a giant dump on Bush right now. Only a very few drinkers of the koolaid (the Goering's and Goebbels of this regime) still support him.

However the Clinton Administration, the Justice Department and Reno dropped the ball absolutely because of "paralysis by analysis."

Wrong. Clinton went after bin Laden both in Afghanistan and the Sudan with cruise missile attacks, but republican leaders in the House and Senate at the time derided him and said he was attempting to start a non-existent war to draw attention away from the Lewinsky "scandal" (there's a joke of a "scandal" if ever there was one). Clinton tried to get al Qaeda, but Bush ignored them until they hit us.

There has been no president in American history, not one, that has dragged the good name and reputation of this country through the mud and filth like Bush has. Kerry is exactly right. Thanks to Bush the few nations that respected America now hate us. Let me correct that a bit though. They dont hate Americans, they hate the Napoleon want-to-be who has hijacked our country and turned into what it never war before, a country feared, not respected. For generations even nations that hated us respected us, but no longer. Bush reminds me of a street thug who says he shoots people to earn respect, when all he is getting is fear. There is a huge difference, but the as*shole in the Oval Office doesn't get it.

dirtydog55: Clinton did know Bin Laden was a bad guy because prior to the "asprin factory" incident, Bin Laden was on the most wanted list for the embassy bombings and the bombing of the USS Cole. Bin Laden actually was on the radar for about 3 years in the last 4 years of Clinton's presidency. However, the CIA and FBI did not share intelligence files hence why we have a Department of Homeland Security today, and under Janet Reno, Head of the Justice Department it was her call to extradite Bin Laden fom Sudan. Why she didn't do it is the million dollar question. Hind sight I guess is 20/20 or domestic politics may have had a play. Either way, president Bush was only in office for 8 months when 9/11 happened. Your right the buck stops with President Bush administration in regard to the box cutters on planes, but that lesson was learned in blood. However the Clinton Administration, the Justice Department and Reno dropped the ball absolutely because of "paralysis by analysis."
