We Felt Safe When Clinton Was President! — Page 2

Once again, JoeP catters his facts to his advantage. He clearly says "Heres a list of Terrorist attacks on AMerican Targets Clinton did nothing about. ANOTHER LIE!!!!! You sir are a LIAR! A LIAR WHO NEEDS TO BE CALLED ON HIS VICIOUS LIES ON EVERY TURN!!!

Those responsible for the first WTC bombing (less than one month after Clinton took office mind you) were caught, & brought to justice.

Those responsible for the Oklahoma City Bombing were caught & brought to Justice (funny how those responsible for the Oklahoma city bombings were anti governemnt/anti-Clinton extreme right wingers)

How come those responsible for 911 have not been caught?

Clinton actually prevented the millinium attacks from happeneing so how again is this on your list of terrorsit attacks on Clinton's watch? Explain that one to me if you can.

Bush has made more people realize we had it good under Clinton. Comparing the two is a joke. 1/2 this country loves Bush & blindly follows him anywhere asking no questions trusting the man on blind faith alone. The entire world HATES Bush with a passion. Bush can't leave the country without having an extreme amount of security follow as protesters greet him at every stop.

Clinton on the other hand is atleast respected by ALOT of Americans. Clinton is a grand staesman. Everywhere he goes he is flocked with crowds just hoping to get a glimpse of him. When he travels to foreign countries he is treated like royalty. Like a rock star. So many adore the man. What a difference in two leaders. This will NEVER change. Bush's legacy will be a black eye on this country forever.He will be remembered as being one of the dumbest, most corrupt Presidents EVER. Clinton will not. Clinton has done more humanatarian work now than Bush will ever do. I can see Clinton being a future Noble Peace Prize winner. So, your attacks on Clinton will do no good. Most here see through your 'mis-information' & catered facts to know how it really is.

We were safe under Clinton's watch. Clinton was on the ball. He was smart & sharp & actually, according to Richard Clarke, obsessed with fighting terrorism. Be prepared to be called on anymore half truths or heresay. This Broadway poster will simply not tolerate it.

How come those responsible for 911 have not been caught?

Can I answer this question and use the logic you applied in the first bombing of the WTC? If yes, what was there to catch??? Their ashes? The people responsible ARE DEAD. Some of those that are part of the network that funded the 9/11 attack have been caught or killed. Clinton didn't go after Al Qaeda, which funded the 93 attack. He didn't go after those responsible for the khobar towers bombing or the Embassy bombings, now did he? That's fact!

The entire world HATES Bush with a passion

I don't care what the rest of the world thinks; if it wasn't for this country, the vast majority of the world would be speaking German. It seems to me when some country has a problem they cry on our shoulders, but ask for a hand and where did they go?

I am not a big fan of Bush...I think has some good points and some bad. Same for Clinton. But please stop with the "Bill Clinton is a Saint" speech. His domestic policy was very good, his foreign policy sucked. If dealt with the Terrorist issue like he did with balancing the budget, we would be so much better off right now and 9/11 might not have happened. That's not to say its all his fault. Its not, its our collective thought. America doesn't have the stomach to rid the world of terrorism. We have to be willing to fight them on their terms, and beyond with greater depraved indifference; its the only way we can win.

Back in 1972, when Lebenon was basically exploding, a terror cell captured a US diplomat (who was really a CIA), at the same time a Soviet diplomat (really KGB) was also captured. The US tried negotiating, diplomatic pressure...blah blah blah, in the end our guy was brutally tortured and then killed.

As for the Russian; they handled it differently. KGB went to work to find out who was responsible; once they established who, the Russians captured a family member of one of the terrorists. They cut off his finger, sent it back to the family and said you have 48 hours to release the Russian diplomat unharmed or else, your family member dies. Needless to say, the Russian was released unharmed, and done so with an apology.

They fought back with the same ferociousness as the terrorists and the won the day. We won't fight that way, and until we do, we will never win against the terrorists.

As for the smoking thing - look we outlawed drugs, because they are bad for us. Smoking is no different; it is harmful no matter how you slice it; we should have the courage to get rid of it as a society. Its law to protect; sometimes people aren't smart enough to protect themselves. That's what we are supposed to do, protect those that can't or don't know how.

The seniority system is fine, if you are waiting to check out with the groceries, or at fast food joint. But not in situations when it needs to be based upon talent or ability. I hate that when I hear "oh, they didn't pay their dues yet". Screw the dues...do you have the talent or the ability. My point about DC is they take that seniority think to a new level. But once someone is there, let their talent shine through.

Oh...but I am back again...grow up PalJoey.
