Clinton: I Would Have Attacked Bin Laden

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."

Snip

Hey, Mods! I'm having some trouble with the posting guidelines, here. Could I get a one-time exemption or something? A get-out-of-ZOT!-free card, maybe?

How about Somalia, Bubba? The first WTC attack? The attacks in Saudi? The embassy bombings? Who was responsible for those atrocities?

Anything with the word "Clinton" in it automatically implies a barf alert.

IMPOSSIBLE. Gorelick "wall" prevented Military/Civilian communication of intelligence.

Every time I think this man can't go any lower in his neurotic attention-seeking, he pulls this kind of crap.

They could have had a picture of UBL driving the damn boat and point "put the bomb right there, Mohammed" and STILL not considered it enough proof.

This man is so full of crap that his eyes are brown.

Hard to take anything clinton says serious. By the way: "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." !!!!!!!!! WHAT ? He was in denial there was any terrorists acts during his full reign & only a "police" matter.

I did a search, I had a feeling this would have been posted already. But for the early to bed folks, I thought it deserved another go.

I am sure he would have loved to have had a real reason to go to war to cover his indiscretions, but he had to settle with blowing up an aspirin factory with a couple of hundred million dollars worth of cruise missiles.

Would have been cheaper to just hang a padlock on his zipper.

This from the President who ordered we turn tail and run after 18 Army Rangers and Delta Force soldiers were dead and dozens wounded in Mogadishu. The message we sent radical muslims was loud and clear, America doesn't have the stomach for war anymore.
