It was also during the 8 years of Bush’s term that he refused to allow anyone to capture Osama Bin Laden.
That’s right - W had his share, and maybe more, of screw-ups. But 9-11 wasn’t one of them. That falls directly on Clinton’s eight solid years of mismanagement and weakness. Bush responded to 9-11 the way we would of expect our President and sent these very surprised jihadists and killers back hiding deep in their caves.
Unfortunately awhile later, W got his eye off the ball and Iraq happened.
