When Dick Clarke testifies, Republicans should play Lisa Myers tape and have Monsor Ijaz testify

We know AL Queda was not high on Clinton's Priority list at the end of his administration. He was trying to shove through mideast piece deal, pardon his criminal donors, and Sadaam was number one on his list.

He gave several speeches on Sadaam, don't remember one he gave on Bin Laden

NEW YORK, Sept. 20 (UPI) -- Former President Bill Clinton defended his use
of Tomahawk missiles against Osama bin Laden in 1998 and called for
tolerance to uphold the United States as a nation of immigrants in a speech
Thursday in New York City.

"We did it because there was reliable information that Osama bin Laden and
his senior lieutenants would be there," Clinton said in a speech at the
Foreign Policy Association in Manhattan. "They were there, but left a few
hours before the missiles arrived -- it was an intelligence failure."
Clinton said the satellite-guided cruise missiles, surgically accurate and
capable of delivering a 1,000-pound payload onto a precise target a half
continent away, were programmed to strike at the heart of bin Laden's
operations.

After the missiles hit, the administration said the strikes had crippled
bin Laden's infrastructure. The United States fired more than 70 Tomahawk
cruise missiles into eastern Afghanistan, targeting training camps operated
by bin Laden. The attack killed about 20 people. "After that we trained
commandos and kept the missiles on ready, but the intelligence never
justified another reasonable opportunity," Clinton said Thursday. "Now the
stakes, the consciousness and the possibilities of American action have all
been increased and we must pursue them in all-deliberate speed."

Clinton approved the military strike in 1998 against bin Laden, after the
bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa were linked to bin Laden. The former
president was awarded a medal for supporting global trade and seeking to
expand Americans' knowledge of international affairs from the Foreign Policy
Association.

"We must remain united as we, in support of President Bush and his
national team, build a global coalition to root out terrorism, their top
aides, their money, and support from others, including governments," Clinton
said. "We must improve our defenses, including better security for planes,
pilots, airports and public transportation, as well as, better legislation
to deal with money laundering.

"We must continue to demonstrate to the world's poor and all the
developing nations that America is not their enemy and to do what we can to
involve all the people in the possibilities of the 21st century, both to
increase global growth and stability and to deprive terrorists of more
potential recruits." Clinton also warned that the terrorist attacks on the
World Trade Center and the Pentagon should not widen social divisions and
that "we should hold on to the diversity of our nation."

"One of the things the terrorists are hoping for is for discord to be sown
in the United States and I have been profoundly disturbed by reports of
attacks on Muslims in America, on mosques, on non-Muslim Arabs, on Sikhs,"
Clinton said. "This is being done by people right now who are scared, angry
and frankly ignorant of the real roots and belief systems of the people they
are attacking."

Clinton added that these are the most exciting times in human history
because of the breakthroughs in science and medicine. "We must remain
united. We must remain visionary," he said. "We have to show terrorists that
they cannot kill our spirit or way of life."

I just saw Dick Clark's 60 minutes interview. He said "They (terrorists) hate us because of what GW has done. Oh PLEEEEZZEEEE. You mean when they bombed the Kobar Towers and first attacked the trade center, and hit the USS cole, and hit our embassies, it was GW's fault???? This makes me sicker than sick. And Liberals are DROOLING!
I also noticed in the interview with Steven Hadley, he was voiced over alot. You saw his lips moving, but Leslie Stahl was speaking. Great job, Leslie! "You mean you don't think George Bush has done ANYthing right????" As if she was trying to stand up for GW.....how pathetic. I'm gonna go puke now.

...Ever since the WEEK THAT WAS the Attacks of September 11, 2001...

...I've been calling for an 911 Investigating Commission to take testimony from MONSOOR IJAZ.

...On September 12, 2001 MONSOOR IJAZ was on the full FoX News Channel telling the American People that the CLINTONS refused 3 No Strings Offers he brokered with the Sudan during the 1990's to hand over our No. 1 Terrorist Enemy OSAMA bin LADEN to us on a Silver Platter.

This guaranteed the Attacks of September 11, 2001 on American soil.

It's official the Liberal Media HATES!! our wonderful country. There is no question now. Verdict is out on O'Reilly, we will see Monday. What he thinks.

[TheEaglehasLanded]

a commercial worth millions that no demrat had to pay, GWB stabbed in the back with his own pen.

[whadizit]

Holy crapola!! What's with these former Bush folks turning on him? He is so loyal. I cannot fathom the turncoats.

[isom35]

how did the american bandstand guy get involved?

[F.J. Mitchell]

Just for the record: Did you carelessly forget the sarcasm tag for your rant or are you trying to insult our intellegince?

[PokeyJoe]

From what I understand, he's a former Clinton official that was held-over (ala Tennet at the CIA).

[singfreedom]

I think you'll find most of those who are doing the backstabbing are holdovers from the Clinton administration, which, if you consider the general moral tone of that administration, is no surprise at all! I mean, if you resort to vandalizing the White House, lying to a Grand Jury, and "doing it in the Oval Office", (all by a person who still doesn't know the meaning of "is") why wouldn't you do a little "backstabbing?

[whadizit]

Sarcasm? Wrong. W is loyal to a fault and does NOT deserve these backstabbers!!!!! He never, ever speaks ill!

[whadizit]

I just heard he had "served" for 30 yrs, which, of course, includes BC, Bush1, RR, etc.

Drudge reported that Clark has a friend working on Kerry campaign so I feel he is a Democrat in Democrat's clothing.

[TejasRose]

I just heard he had "served" for 30 yrs, which, of course, includes BC, Bush1, RR, etc.

And....also, if he had quit before he'd "served" 30 years, he probably would have not received his "full" government retirement benefit package, which is probably pretty sweet. And now....his book to help sweeten his retirement package. I saw this guy on 60 minutes tonight (just watched a short time), and I definitely think he's Kerry's boy.

[savedbygrace]

I hope the WH now sees that the "new tone in Washington" is a failed experiment.

[PokeyJoe]

I agree - he's given away so much in a true spirit of "statesman", and all he has are knives in his back.

It worked in Texas, because Texas at the state level are still Texas patriots. I have serious doubts, however, about people like Kerry - who wants the US to be subordinate to the UN.
