Ex-president Bill Clinton now says he would have taken out Osama bin Laden before the 9/11 attacks if only the FBI and CIA had been able to prove the al-Qaida mastermind was behind the attack on the U.S.S. Cole.
"I desperately wish that I had been president when the FBI and CIA finally confirmed, officially, that bin Laden was responsible for the attack on the U.S.S. Cole," Clinton tells New York magazine this week. "Then we could have launched an attack on Afghanistan early."
"I dont know if it would have prevented 9/11," he added. "But it certainly would have complicated it.
Despite his failure to launch such an attack, Clinton said he saw the danger posed by bin Laden much more clearly than did President Bush.
"I always thought that bin Laden was a bigger threat than the Bush administration did," he told New York magazine.
I checked to make sure. Yep, that particular strike against the camel and tent in 1998, three days after committing perjury, was because of the embassy bombings.
My thoughts exactly.
I just wish we had somebody in the media that would dedicate a 2 hour show to uncover all of the hypocrisy by these dirt bags from the Klintojn Administration.
Can you imagine what George H. W. Bush's legacy would be right now if he and Barbara Bush were forced to return over $100,000.00 worth of gifts and furniture taken from the White House?
Or at least join Mr. Brando ASAP.
The only one Blozo is fooling is himself. The guy is a walking satire of himself.
Please note it was orginally posted in June 1999. I guess Clinton didn't get the memo.
He was offered bn Laden by Suadan. In one of the scenarios, we would immediately exradite him to Saudi Arabia.
(I got hit hit a wishful thinking stick this morning.)
The guy no doubt is a sociopath.
Yep. 1998. Banner year.
What a second. Bin Laudin was already connected with the African Embassy bombings and that is considered US soil. Why would it matter what happened to the USS Cole? As I remember he was offered Bin Laudin several times, but was more worried on what lawyers would think. I swear you could squeeze Clintons head and you would have enough manure gushing out from his ears to fertilize Kansas!
I think those launchings were for two reasons.
1) Diversion from Lewinsky's grand jury testimony and
2) Retaliation for the embassy bombings in Africa.
In that order.

NEVER FORGET
It takes one to know one, doesn't it BILL..?
The CLINTON-RODHAM Team was on our Terrorist Enemy HO CHI MINH's side and against US during the Vietnam War
The CLINTON-RODHAM Team refused 3 Free Offers from the Sudan during the 1990's to give them our Terrorist Enemy OSAMA bin LADEN on a Silver Platter before he could hit us real hard here at home after they had left the White House.
The Enemy is now Within...

Hey, Bill, call your therapist. The team needs to see you.
NO, we really mean it this time.
Clintons legacy rating:
Think Baghdad Bob, Neville Chamberlain, Lord Haw-Haw, and
Emperor Norton rolled into one.
and the media laps this up....really...guys....time to
throw away the MSM...really...consider everything they
say as false...if they can't see past these BIZARRE
vocalizations(bald faced lies)...they cannot be trusted
at all to even tell a straight story. Therefore, they are
useless, and must be discarded and no longer relied upon to
tell the whole truth of any matter.
I agree with the poster that said earlier in the thread that all Clinton wanted to do was leave a clean legacy...no fighting the Muslims (might get his hands dirty)...
So he swept all of the problems under the Oval Office rug, just waiting to seep out when Bush took office...just like the stock market was going down....but it only went WAY down under Bush and then 9/11...
so Bush gets blamed for the deficit...and the lack of military hardware and such...
and the crook admitted in that interview that he let all of us down...especially the families of 9/11.
"Weldon's story must be bothering him....this is a 'pre-emptive strike'".
I agree!
I HOPE RUSH PLAYS THE AUDIO OF THIS STATEMENT WITH A LAUGH TRACK!!!!
BILL CLINTON'S STATEMENTS NEED A LAUGH TRACK.
