WASHINGTON (CNN) -- For the second year in a row, the State Department warned that South Asia "remained a focal point for terrorism directed against the United States" and said trends in terrorism continue to shift from the Middle East to South Asia.

Interesting, this also mentions the White House policy fo going after the whole network, instaed of just OBL. This correlates nicely with what the administration has been saying about not wanting to "swat flies," and instaed to go after terrorism. This within THREE MONTHS of assuming office. This makes Clarke look like an even bigger bonehead.

Nice one!

Recall that GWB also had the Chinese downing a plane that he had to deal with for a period of time. During that 3 months

April 2000 was the Clinton administration. Not Bush.

Wow!!!

'State' is the U.S.A.'s first line of defense!

Uh,......what is the 'INS'......hello, 'State'...??

/sarcasm

This is a comparison of Clinton's 2000 report and Bush's 2001 report.

Excellent find, Homer.

FYI....ping!

[COEXERJ145]

But, but, that good, honest, honorable, man Clarke said that Clinton was the greatest terrorist fighter ever and only Republican Presidents were lax on terror. /sarcasm

[VadeRetro]

CNN might want to disappear that article. It's embarrassing to Clarke and to Clintonistas in general. I'm sure they haven't realized the implications.

[FlashBack]

Excellent Read There!!

You people are the best!!!!!!!

Good, we need more of this. Where in the Hell is the counter attack? We should attack Clarke's arguments, not how much money he's making. Clarke's arguments are utterly full of it. The Clintonistas were totally unserious about fighting terror and any honest person knows it.

Next Clarke wil start arguing that Bill Clinton had a "No 'is' with Interns" sign on the White House.

Good find

You need to email this to the media before CNN remembers it.

To be honest, I'd never heard of it until after 9/11. But I was in no position to be fighting the islamofascist evil doers.

[One Sided Media]

Not only the Chinese incident (holding our guys captive!), but he also had to handle the collision of the Japanese Fishing Boat (killing most or was it all on board) by one of our submarines at Pearl Harbor!

We also should not forget that it was a shortened Transition.

Yep. The Clinton GAO made sure of that.
