The Felon had a 100% chance of getting Osama from the Sudanese, but turned them down twice. The idiot must be reminded of this horrendous failure every Sept. 11th.

So the only place bin Laden ever went that we knew was occasionally he went to Khandahar, where he always spent the night in a compound that had 200 women and children."

"So I could have, on any given night, ordered an attack that I knew would kill 200 women and children that had less than a 50 percent chance of getting him."

Even today this military loather can only think of one way to accomplish a military objective: bombing.

Our military has shown time and time again, (when led by Republicans) that it has the capability to take out a target like that with a minimum of civilian casualties, even in a semi-hostage situation as this one was.

I guess the twin debacles represented by Mogadishu and the Carter-Iranian helicopter disaster have eliminated the risking of even one soldier's life, for any military action, from the menu of options that a Democratic President might choose from.

The knee-jerk reliance on bombing has cost us at least 3000 American civilians.

Somehow, that didn't seem to bother him so much in Waco.

I guess David Koresh's scalp was just more important to Clinton than Bin Laden's.

I wish someone, anyone in the mainstream press had the courage to ask:

But Mr. President, that didn't seem to bother you when you were going after David Koresh down in Waco. Was that mission more important than getting bin Laden?

Absolutely. Great question.

I wonder if this was one of the nights Bubba was spirited out of the White House on the back floor of his limo so he could meet a bimbo at a hotel? 17 posted on 05/09/2003 7:29 AM PDT by Gritty [

Could be, could also be the time he spirited himself out of the White House to walk to the nearest McDonalds for a meal!

'...3000 American civilians..."

Keep in mind that there were representatives of many other countries. That Americans made up the majority of the needless deaths on 9-11, the total international toll was 3,000. Thank you clinochio for ALL you did for us that led to this tragedy. Not to mention the Kobar towers, USS Cole, etc.. Every time, you shook that infamous finger in our faces,like you did in the Monica affair, and said you'd hunt them down and bring the perps to justice. You NEVER DID that, you criminal. You left that to President Bush(man I love saying that).
