Clinton's fight had an added strain. White House officials acknowledged at the time he authorized the attack on Sudan and Afghanistan on the same August weekend in 1998 he confessed his affair with Lewinsky to his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton. He met with national security and military advisers to plan the attacks between sessions with lawyers to prepare for his grand jury testimony.

Don't let any media talking head try to tell us again that a person can do a good job if his personal life is a scandal. If I heard it once, I heard it a thousand times that you can still do your job while your personal life is personal. Grrrrrrrrrrrr!

And the Clinton legacy grows. (It's like a bad piece of meat...the more you chew it the bigger it gets.)

Some wonder whether he wasn't distracted by the legal and political quagmire of the Monica S. Lewinsky case.

H*ll, the only missiles Clinton ever sent against Bin Laden were the Monica Missiles!

Yet Clinton's terrorism policy was one of fits and starts, of good intentions that faded into inattention...

That quite clearly describes anything Clintoon has ever attempted to do. Lots of grandiose talk, get bored quickly, drop the project for the next high profile fad. Perhaps Clintoon has ADD.

Instead of resigning with some shred of dignity, Clinton wasted the nation's precious time. And last night, the worse Clinton was underjoyed at a magnificient speech by a real president.

Let us not forget that the Clinton/Gore team was largely responsible for the demise of Sky Marshalls riding random domestic flights. The funding was diverted for the $1M a piece bomb sniffing machines at our airports. I have yet to hear of any bombs every being caught by one of these machines.

His aides also say that the public and its Washington representatives failed to focus on terrorism because there was never a homeland attack to rally public opinion.

Jamie Gorelick (perfect name, that), said this. What country does he think the World Trade Center was in when it was bombed in 1993?

Does he think the USS Cole belongs to the Bolivian navy?

It was the Clinton administration and the Democrats in Congress who gutted our intelligence gathering capabilities. Increasing the budget but not allowing us to recuit the people who could give us useful information about our enemies is a typical liberal solution. "Let's throw money at the problem but not actually do anything that would inconvenience anyone."

''Clearly, not enough was done,'' said Jamie Gorelick, a former deputy attorney general in the Clinton administration.

Gorelick?...Gorelick?

How appropriate.

Some aides told of how Clinton would read spy novels and marvel over the possibilities of an America under seige.

Yeah, he probably would've loved that. Imagine the potential to set aside the Consitution and remain in office for life.

Democrats support terror. On a lower level than this of course but terror and crime are weapons they use to beat down the population. You can look it up.

Lets also not forget that Clinton gave a Presidential pardon to the FALN terrorists just to mine some votes for Hillary.

Clinton didn't have the moral credibility to lead this nation in that kind of war. His motivations would have been suspected at every turn by every nation. It would have been nearly impossible for him to lead. He weakened his authority and cut the legs out from under his talented potential for short-term gain (for a kind of existential fleeting buzz). Now I almost pity him.

The following non-PC remarks may offend some. Too bad - it is the truth.

Clinton was a weak woman and presided over a feminization of the US and its defence. To Islamic terrorists this type of behavior is an invitation to get beat up.

We must change our demeanor and stand up like men in the defense of our country. No excuses. No appologies. No sympathy to our enemies. No worring about the consequences, if we do the right thing. It seems this is happening. Keep it up.

Allies, critics say Clinton fell short....

Does Monica feel that Clinton fell short?

Clinton's fight had an added strain.

Is that strain or stain?

Clinton would have loved for an attack to have happened. He longed to be the big JFK type leader in time of crisis. And his lesbian wife sat and watched Bush be everything she wished her husband was. And she wished she could be. Even Howard Fineman said, "Clinton and his crowd are now irrelevant." FINALLY! Of course, in my mind, they've always been irrelevant.

I love this. Like it wasn't his own fault that he engaged in perjury, witness intimidation and subornation of perjury, to say nothing of his underlying risky sexual behaviors that exposed him to blackmail in the first place.

Frankly, I think after Bush's speech last night, a lot of people are having a hard time imagining how Clinton, Albright, Cohen and Gore could EVER have handled a WTC-type crisis effectively.

While I was listening to Bush last night, I had this image of the country seeing Clinton getting smaller, and smaller and smaller, like they were seeing him from the back of a moving train.
