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.

"Clinton: I Would Have Attacked Bin Laden"

But I was too busy sticking my cigar in my brand new Lewinsky humidor.

If only screwing interns didn't get in the way! SheeeesH!

[The Mayor]

coulda, woulda, shoulda.......

What a piece of work he is.

Arky trash: For the umpteenth time: STFU!!!!

[Parley Baer]

Sure Bill. Bwahahahahahaha. His war on terrorism was to tell the Bush admistration to keep and eye on bin Laden.

[RedStateRocker]

As was said about another president:
"He lies even when he doesn't have to, just to stay in practice".

[A CA Guy]

This seems a direct invitation to put the truth out there.

He wants to re-write his legacy, but there is so much to prove he was responsible for 9-11.

This man knows know shame, just lots of strange women's bodies.

[Stellar Dendrite]

Weldon's story must be bothering him....this is a "pre-emptive strike"

[Sometimes A River]

And, that still puts him at odds with the current head of the Dem Party, who was calling for a criminal trial for Osama.

He has got to be kidding me. This clown sat there and let the 1993 WTC attacks happen, he let numerous other embassy attacks happen, and he STILL sat there and did nothing. Why should we sit there and believe that he would have magically taken Osama out after the USS Cole?

Clinton is a clown, and this proves it. I actually had a tiny bit of respect left for the man, but now I just lost all of it. This guy is as disingenuous as it gets.

[Homer1]

First Weldon and now this. It's ON, baby. This is war.

[Bob]

In that case, bill, you'll have no problem at all with Reno and Gorelick testifying publicly under oath about your administration's involvement in building the "wall", will you?

[A CA Guy]

A direct attempt to help his wife's run when he was implicated as so much of the problem.

This will become very exposed as a lie IMO.

[50sDad]

Dear Lord, please allow me to live long enough that I can urniate on this man's grave. Amen.

He should be talking from a prison cell right now, but nobody had the balls to indict, try and convict him of rape, treason and God knows what else.

So why didn't he when given the oppertunity?
