Those agents could have gone to the door with no weapons and have gotten that child out of there. Do you really think that those folks would shoot Federal Agents?

Janet had a drama mentality. Waco, Ruby Ridge, Elian are all excellent examples of it.

I truly think it was much more serious than just dramatics. So much of the hostility we see today towards Christianity and conservatism is a direct result of the attitudes these people fostered in the 1990s.

Up until 1993, the attack on the WTC was one of the worst attacks on our soil. But instead of seeking out these terrorist murderers, it was only a few months later that Clinton's cops surrounded the compound at WACO. I don't remember the exact date, but it wasn't too long after this, that ClintonCo was going after the Freeman in Montana.

This was an administration that literally looked at Christian Fundys and seperatists as a greater danger than the Muslim Fundamentalist who were already attacking this country. This hatred was further fueled after the OKC bombing when Clinton specifically said that right-wing hate radio was responsible for the actions of people like McVeigh.

The irony is that it was Clinton and company's own hatred...and actions, at places like Ruby Ridge, Waco etc. that may have perpetuated the acts of some at OKC. Sadly, they continue to perpetuate this same hatred with their vitriolic rhetoric and condescending tone.

If there was ever an example needed to show the Left's disdain for those that think differently than them, the actions of the Clinton Administration proved that point...and more, as they had more disdain for the citizens of this country than they did for its enemies.

I tend to think it's because she was completely incompetent and over her head, like most of Bubba's Cabinet.

You're 100% right. It was a made for TV hit, and I have never understood why anyone, regardless of how they felt about the situation, could ever support that.

They claimed they would.
