Default OT-Not just about WMDs

Exactly, Slick Willie is the consummate politician. So, why are you using
him to defend Bush?


It *is* the biggest threat. But Clinton never believed that when he was
in office...despite the 1993 WTC attack, the Khobar tower bombings, the
USS Cole, the US Embassy bombings, etc. Clinton was too busy bombing
Serbs and Iraqi intelligence buildings. If he believed that bin Laden
was the biggest threat, he wouldn't have put the inept Justice dept. in
charge of ridding us of terrorism...and he wouldn't have been using our
military against the Serbs and Saddam...instead of against the Taliban
and bin Laden.


Clinton's perception of the threat grew during his term in office. To be
fair, evidence linking the 1993 WTC to Al Qaeda is sketchy, at best, and
only seen in hindsight. The Khobar Towers bombing it the act that put bin
Laden in our sights. After that, Clinton did fail to apprehend him, but
then GWB has been in office for 3 1/2 years and bin Laden is still bin
Missin'.


If Clinton took the Sudanese up on their offer to turn over bin Laden,
he wouldn't be bin Missin' either, right?


It's hard to wade through the BS to get to the facts on that offer, but if
it was a valid offer and Clinton had taken them up on it, much would have
changed. The probability is that 9/11 would never have happened, as is
the probability that Bush would not be in a close Presidential race.
Without his "War on Terrorism" propping him up, Bush's Presidency would be
in the dumpster.
