WHY DID BILL CLINTON IGNORE TERRORISM?

For Leftists in America, especially those still mired in the sixties, it must be like living in a part of town they're ashamed of, in a home they weren't allowed to decorate. Until this home is "right" for them, they will refuse to buy it, they will continue to rent.

Mammals never defend territory they don't consider to be their own.

As to the Clinton administration in particular, their hatred of the right trumped all other concerns, including security.

With the Patriot Act, even scarier. She should never see that day.

there are interesting psycho-dynamics at play with both Hillary and Bill....IMHO their domestic terrorism perceptions fit with their loathing of America and americans in general.

Correct. But then only Republicans need laws. With or without the Patriot Act, Hitlary would still do whatever she wanted, and the MSM would say nothing. Rules only apply to Republicans.... did I repeat myself??

I don't believe Clinton ignored it; more like he was afraid to deal with it.....you do know he did have a legacy of "peace and prosperity" to think about.....

Clinton figured that OBL and company would never consider undertaking a large scale attack on US soil; he thought wrong and 3000 people paid for it.....

That wasn't a flame, just some resptable arguments.

Although I need to call you on your claim that Hitlery could be discredited. She wasn't the President. Bill was. She didn't receive CIA briefings and I can honestly believe she likely focused most of her attention on turning America into a socialst paradise. Not on the security issues.

That line of argument doesn't fit.

Also, did you see the article that the Pentagon is denying that Able knew of Atta?

The whole story doesn't carry enough water to pass the vast-right-wing conspiracy threshold. In other words right or wrong it is a political blind alley.

So Mia is right. I am looking at this from a political point of view.

Well headlines are important. You want the reader to understand what you're writing about right at the start and then stick to your topic and make your case. What can I say...I'm a detail oriented guy. Quality is crucial in my business.

Hillary was over the DOJ. Reno and Gorelick were her girls.

I saw the Pentagon headline, but I haven't looked at it yet. I will say this- it's a distinct possibility that Berger got all the docs that he needed to get out of the archives. Why he wasn't arrested, I don't know. Maybe it was too politically insensitive. ;^)

BINGO!

I've ALWAYS felt that Bubba was just a dupe of Hitlery and that SHE IS THE EVIL ONE! I'm betting if you scratch the skin off of her skull, two horns will pop out. She is most definately the Anti-Christ.

I disagree. Bill Clinton's pathological self-interest trumped all other concerns. He didn't hate the right that much, but he hated anyone who stood in the way of Bill Clinton getting what he wants.

Because Clinton is a self absorbed ass, only worrying about keeping himself out of the fire. With him worrying about how to keep his pants around his ankles without getting caught, he didn't have time to worry about anything else...that and he's just an idiot.

Bent Willie ignored terrorism because there was no political upside to fighting terrorism. The guy was driven by polls and the petty lawyer/advisers that surrounded him.

A Clinton action may have been occasionally good for the country but first it had to be politically beneficial. Welfare reform, Monica missiles and every other policy I can think of fit the pattern.
