New York Sen. Hillary Clinton questioned Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Tuesday about claims that the Bush administration missed a chance to kill Osama bin Laden before the 9/11 attacks, asking him to explain the failure to 9/11 victim families.
Rumsfeld was testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee about revising the military force structure when committee-member Clinton switched gears, asking him about the 9/11 Commission report.
Citing a commission finding calling the Bush administration's failure to arm Predator drones a "missed opportunity" in the hunt for bin Laden, Clinton asked Rumsfeld to respond to questions from 9/11 victim families.
In testimony before the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee earlier in the day, 9/11 family spokeswoman Kristin Breitweiser complained about arguments between the Pentagon and the CIA over the use of Predator drones.
"As their heated debate continued over money and responsibilities, al Qaida was already here in the U.S., lying in wait, fully embedded and prepared to kill 3,000 innocent people," Breitweiser said, in quotes picked up by CNN.
"If that does not illustrate how off-the-mark our military and intelligence community was in the months leading up to 9/11, I don't know what does," she complained.
"The status quo has failed us," 9/11 relative Stephen Push testified. "The current allocation of intelligence budgets failed to prevent the murder of nearly 3,000 people in one day on American soil."
Rumsfeld had not responded to Sen. Clinton's request by the time the Armed Services Committee hearing ended.
Why is this whiny b%tc# testifying before a committee? Is this a courtesy hearing or does this malingerer have that much clout? I shudder to think that Ms. Not-so-bright-and-not-so-wiser is determining the security of this country!
From all I can see recently, she no longer care's what BJ does, as long as it doesn't harm her political goals.
That fits Hillary to a tee. What a shame for Hillary that we are the ones with the long memories.
NEVER FORGET.
Nothing new...it's always been about HER power.
Amen.
Last I checked it was during the Clinton administration that was arguing about putting weapons on the drones? Hillary only made herself look stupid because anyone with common sense knows all about Bill's failures.
"In testimony before the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee earlier in the day, 9/11 family spokeswoman Kristin Breitweiser complained about arguments between the Pentagon and the CIA over the use of Predator drones."
This b!tch is NOT the spokeswoman for 9/11 families. She is the spokeswoman for the LIBERAL 9/11 families that have disgustingly used their loved one's deaths to further their political agenda(s).
His answer should have been "That was in the last administration"
Before this witch asks any questions of those who are doing what she and her hubby failed to do, I would like to ask her three questions.
1) Do you believe that your husband really raped Juanita Broaderick?
and 2) Who hired Craig Livingstone?
and 3) Is it true that liberals have no heart, soul, and conscience?
...and PLEASE use it, to "moveon.home."
Kristen can't face the fact that her husband was almost out of Tower 2 BEFORE the plane hit it and turned around and went back upstairs.
sometimes I think we misplace our intestinal fortitude when dealing with these leftist f-ing...especially during an election year. she gets the upper hand with the press with the charge to our Dr. Defense. The media will spin this and the american people will lose sight of her daughter's father(marrige of convenience)who did nothing in his 8 years.
We better fire back and fire back hard (with facts) before we lose any more ground to these left losing f-ing...
What a soul-less work of art this woman is. And they dare to warn Republicans not to exploit the 9/11 attacks at their convention.
If I am not mistaken, Bush was still operating under Clinton's military appropriations budget. Perhaps she should pose the question to Billy Boy, if she can find him.
Ummm... No one had ever placed missles on the predator until this administration.
and it had never been thought of to try till after 911
Keep him lifted up in prayer.
great picture. she is sooooo hot. that is what happens when you are hit with an ugly stick.
