Clinton: I Would Have Attacked Bin Laden
NewsMax ^ | 8/15/05 | NewsMax

Posted on 08/15/2005 8:08:34 PM PDT by wagglebee

Ex-president Bill Clinton now says he would have taken out Osama bin Laden before the 9/11 attacks – if only the FBI and CIA had been able to prove the al-Qaida mastermind was behind the attack on the U.S.S. Cole.

"I desperately wish that I had been president when the FBI and CIA finally confirmed, officially, that bin Laden was responsible for the attack on the U.S.S. Cole," Clinton tells New York magazine this week. "Then we could have launched an attack on Afghanistan early."

"I don’t know if it would have prevented 9/11," he added. "But it certainly would have complicated it.”

Despite his failure to launch such an attack, Clinton said he saw the danger posed by bin Laden much more clearly than did President Bush.

"I always thought that bin Laden was a bigger threat than the Bush administration did," he told New York magazine.

Thanks for the ping.

There really are no words to describe the disgust I feel reading this pathetic screed.

We were told from the beginning from old bj himself that we were getting two for the price of one.

Hillry probably knew more about what was going on than old bj did and yet she will never be held accountable. She is a vengeful itch and it would not surprise me one bit that she was the wall and the architect of the wall building that was established during Clintonism.

"He lies even when he doesn't have to, just to stay in practice".

Actually I think there is a reason he is doing this. I think the shoe is going to drop on the Sandy Berger case and I think Clinton will be seen as ignoring terrorism. Everytime Clinton had something come out on him, he would turn the story around to make it look like it was not him.

I have also been curious about Hillry's selection of committees to serve on when she landed her senate job.

Might well be main reason why Hillry got herself upon that Armed Forces Committee, easy access to "intel" that she knew would not be floating to other channels.

He says whatever is expedient to the moment. Liars and cheats always do that. His fatkid-son-of-a-mystery personality was ingrained long ago and he just can't stop his lyin' mouth. Remember this comment from 3 years ago?
Bill Clinton says he would 'fight and die' for Israel

By The Associated Press

Former President Bill Clinton told Jewish supporters in Toronto this week that he would fight and die to protect Israel if Iraq or Iran ever invaded.

"The Israelis know that if the Iraqi or the Iranian army came across the Jordan River, I would personally grab a rifle, get in a ditch, and fight and die," Clinton, who avoided the Vietnam War, said to cheers at a Hadassah children's charity fund-raising dinner Monday.

Jim Kennedy, a spokesman for Clinton, provided the transcript of his comments. Clinton's remarks were first reported in the Toronto Star.

I'm sure Bill Buckner would have fielded that grounder on one knee as well.

They are identified as sociopaths.

You're so much nicer than I. I call him the fat, vicious bastard from the wrong side of the tracks. "Son-of-a-mystery-doner" is so much more poetic! I wish I'd thought of that!

Clinton: I Would Have Attacked Bin Laden
.................

Clinton makes a wonderful study in pathological lieing. He's done it for so long even he doesn't realize when he's doing it or is able to seperate reality from nonreality. If he makes it to seventy years of age expect to see him wandering around town in nothing but a ratty bath robe and wearing only one slipper.

I have a feeling that in a few decades after the entire world has finally acknowledged what Klintoon really was, he will be studied by psychology students around the world. He brings sociopathological behavior to an entire new level.
