You are correct. That's another thing I can add to the list of great
Obama accomplishments.

Of course non of that matters now that Clinton isn't in office, correct

You're missing the point! When Bush was president, you and other
righties made frequent comments about how safe he was keeping us because
we hadn't had an attack since 9/11. So it stands that Obama is doing a
great job at it too. I made several comments about how lame that
reasoning was.
Oh my goodness. You may be right again, although I can't remember
*ever* uttering a comment about how safe Bush was keeping us. Perhaps
you could find even *one* example of such?

And, I've done nothing *but* agree that 'Bama is doing a super job at
keeping us safe from man made disasters.

What the hell more do you want?

Yeah, me either but don't let that stop anybody from stereotyping us,
especially a representative of "the tolerant party"...;)


I can't figure Loogy out. Hell, I praise the hell out of 'Bama, but
it's never good enough.

Just today, 'Bama saved over 240,000 jobs. The guy is probably the
best leader since Moses.

Yeah, like starting a war to inflame the Islamic world. A war of
choice, a war where 1000s of our men and women died for no reason.

Your doctor didn't keep you safe. It was institutions such as the
CDC.. gov't run agencies.
The CDC is an information clearing house and policy producing
organization. The CDC is not on the leading edge of research.

In that case, don't follow their recommendations. Duhh...

Wasn't the CDC involved in the plastic wrap and duct tape
reccomendation?



Nope... that was DHS.


Are you sure? I didn't think the DHS had been created or congealed at that
time.



I was referring to this incident... were you thinking of something else?

Allowed bin Laden to walk? How's that? He tried to get him several times.


not only that, but every time clinton did something, the GOP
complained it was 'political'. if he'd killed bin laden the GOP
would have impeached him



They found something else.... lol

Yet we are still losing Americans every day looking for him in
Afghanistan ... amazing.
There does seem to be a double standard on the left. If this was GWB
doing this, it would be the only thing the talking heads on TV were
talking about.



Not to my knowledge we are.... we're supposedly trying to protect the Afg.
people and ensuring a stable gov't there. I haven't heard anything about
hunting for bin laden in Afg. since he left Tora Bora.

Not sure what you mean by the double standard comment. The Afg. war was
supported by the world community, by both right and left in this country,
and now is being criticized by many on the left as a waste of effort.

I don't have a good feeling about increasing troop strength at this
point.
As Obama said (paraphrasing), the generals are thinking about the war,
the
president needs to think about the world.

night from Afghanistan. It turns out we don't even think Bin Laden is

today that's true. wasn't true on 9/11.


If you believe that you are saying GWB was right and BHO is wrong. Are
you sure you don't want to reconsider?
Personally I don't believe the Taliban has ever had any grudge with
the US beyond our invading their country and if we leave they won't
care about us at all. They tolerated al queda but, I doubt they had
anything to do with 9-11



?? The Taliban were clearly supporting bin laden, although not many years
prior to 9/11, certainly leading up to it. They did more than tolerate them.
They actively supported them in the timeframe I notes.
