The real story could go back to Bill Clinton who didn’t take him out when he had the chance.

Prior to 9-11 anyone, President included, that would have announced a threat from Bin Laden would have been met with Chicken Little criticism. Isn’t hindsight just a wonderful thing?

“The real story could go back to Bill Clinton who didn’t take him out when he had the chance.”

That plus other instances. Bush had been in office only seven complete months when 9/11 occurred, hardly a sufficient amount if time to put in place a hardened anti terrorist program. For blame, maybe should look further back, such as the eight years of the Clinton Presidency? Naw, can’t do that. Gotta be a Bush problem.....

How is this line of thought any different from Obama supporters blaming GWB for everything?

Even now, ask any liberal what threat Al Qaida or ISIS poses to the USA.

They will tell you, NONE!

They are too busy demanding tax audits of republicans to see the nuke getting put in place.

Worse Clinton stirred up the hornets nest without killing any of the hornets. 9/11 was a revenge attack for Clinton's hasty cruise missile attack on Bin Laden's training camp, which coincided with Monica Lewinsky's grand jury confession. It wasn't the flapping of a butterfly's wings that initiated the sequence, it was a chubby intern sucking off a scumbag politician.

In 1996 Bin Laden issued his first fatwa declaring war against the US. Al-Qaeda declared war on the United States and its allies two times before the attacks on September 11, 2001. Those two declarations came in the form of fatwas, a type of Islamic religious decree.

For those who have forgotten Mueller the director of the FBI was not ratified by Congress until Sept 4 2001 and the Clinton Administration did not permit Bush to top national security information until late Dec because of the Gore protest of the election.

WINNER!!! And don't forget that Hillary thought it was a big joke that Sandy Berger stole secret documents supporting that point of view.

So you agree that Bush did not keep us safe?
