Hillary 'Outraged' at Bush Security Failure

2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Friday she was "outraged" that President Bush hasn't spent more money to beef up security on New York City's mass transit system in the wake of Thursday's train bombings in London.

"I'm absolutely outraged by the failure of the administration to release the [rail security] funding that Congress approved last year," the top Democrat complained.

"We are woefully behind where London and other subway systems are because London does have the video surveillance," she fumed. "I just don't understand what the holdup is."

Even before the smoke cleared in London, Clinton was on the attack, ripping Bush in a statement posted to her official Senate web site on Thursday:

"It is imperative that the millions of New Yorkers who travel on trains and buses know that our tunnels and facilities continue to operate with the highest security operations in place. The President’s budget calls for a $50 million cut in funding for rail and transit security this year, which is clearly a step in the wrong direction."

Mrs. Clinton vowed to continue to press the White House to get the job done, saying, "I will work to ensure that we provide the resources needed to meet our rail and transit security needs."

This is a GOLDEN opportunity. They need to immediately implement an exhaustive, intrusive, and totally overwhelming security protocal at the NY Transit system, and call it the HILLARY CLINTON SECURITY PROTOCOL in huge letters at every exit.

Hellary out to save the day! 

 

And the MSM will take the Hag's grandstanding comments as gospel to be blabbed on TV and printed in every news rag from coast to coast.

Even before the smoke cleared in London, Clinton was on the attack,

Positioning herself so that she can gleefully take advantage of any actual attack on our rail system.

This is sanctimonious prancing with the objective of winning the presidency.

[Mikey_1952]

Hey Hillary... How about raising NY taxes to pay for it.

Bake Sale? Garage Sale? cookie sale...

[umgud]

What did her do-nothing husband do in his do-nothing 8 years???

He rode the world's biggest tech bubble to a financial high (that he had no part in) that was to go bust just as he was leaving, allowing himself to brag about a good economy and blame Bush for the burst.

As to security and terrorism, he did nothing.

*yawn*

They're always outraged about *something*, aren't they.

Whatever.

"We are woefully behind where London and other subway systems are because London does have the video surveillance," she fumed...

Yes, we are woefully behind, in casualties... the surveillance sure prevented that attack quite nicely, didn't it?

[Fido969]

Ask Hildabast what her and BJ did to secure the country from terrorist's attacks during the 8 years they were in office.

[muawiyah]

If it's unsafe, the first action should be to stop the trains at the first station and let everyone out. Then roll them all to the marshaling yards for the duration.

New York's not so big people can't walk!

[Morgan in Denver]

Ahhhh...... The good old days Democrats long for.

"I'm absolutely outraged by the failure of the administration to release the [rail security] funding that Congress approved last year," the top Democrat complained.

Rush pointed out yesterday that Congress is considering taking money back from New York. Apparently they have some $250 million they haven't spent. And it's been four years.

That said, if it makes Hillary angry, hang onto the money. It's better for us when she's hysterical.

[Mister Baredog]

She's tied to the legacy that brought us 9/11.

But Sandy Burglar told us that terrorism was Clintoon's #1 priority, he just never mentioned it while in office. ROTFL.

This lame positioning by missus clinton is analogous to her risible rape-victim advocacy pose.

HILLARY IS NIXON-PLUS ^{part 2}
BEWARE THE SYNERGY
Nixonian paranoia and fascistic mindset combine with
clintonian megalomania, ineptitude and, most important, easy betrayal of America
to make hillary clinton deadly dangerous for us all.


also: HILLARY IS NIXON-PLUS ^{part 1}

[Mister Baredog]

So, why hasn't the city of New York paid for their security?

They have, I heard an interview with the head guy yesterday. He said they've spent almost $1 billion on transit security(including airports) AND tha $87 million of it was Federal Funds.

Hillary is a LIAR, what else is new?

PIAPS

Someone say dead?

Bill, Hillary, and Al Die

---

Bill, Hillary, and Al were in an airplane that crashed. They're up in heaven, and God's sitting on the great white throne. God addresses Al first.

"Al, what do you believe in?"

Al replies, "Well, I believe that the combustion engine is evil and that we need to save the world from CFCs and that if any more freon is used, the whole earth will become a greenhouse and we'll all die."

God thinks for a second and says "Okay, I can live with that. Come and sit at my left."

God then addresses Bill. "Bill, what do you believe in?"

Bill replies, "Well, I believe in power to the people. I think people should be able to make their own choices about things and that no one should ever be able to tell someone else what to do. I also believe in feeling people's pain."

God thinks for a second and says "Okay, that sounds good. Come and sit at my right."

God then address Hillary. "Hillary, what do you believe in?"

"I believe you're in my chair."

[Mister Baredog]

Any politician who publicly identifies specific US targets as being vulnerable to terrorist attack, should be arrested for aiding and abetting the enemy.

There may be space available at "Club Gitmo" LOL.

[mombonn]

I LOATHED her husband, I LOATHED algore and jf'n kerry; but there are no words to describe how I feel about that evil woman.

[True Republican Patriot]

Lets go back to TWA 800! Let us remember that Kerry,himself said on National TV on 9-11 that TWA 800 was an Act of Terror and later that week repeated his charge that it was an Act of Terror on Hardball with Chris Matthews. Richard Clarke in his book describes how he single handedly invented the ZOOM THEORY which any Aeronautical or Mechanical Engineer knows is completely impossible.
