'The terrorists saw our response to the hostage crisis in Iran, the bombings in the Marine barracks in Lebanon, the first World Trade Center attack, the killing of American soldiers in Somalia, the destruction of two U.S. embassies in Africa and the attack on the USS Cole,' Bush said. 'The terrorists concluded that we lacked the courage and character to defend ourselves and so they attacked us.'

This encompasses Carter, Reagan and Clinton but if you look at it the majority were under Clinton. I'd say a dash of Truth from intended by him to be introduced to the fiction of media accounts, but clearly detailing the extent to which this happened under Clinton is a shot back.

I would have even gone back to our shameful pullout from Vietnam.

Didn't encompass Reagan, he got the hostages out and rebuilt the tattered military under Carter into a massive force the Soviets withered with fear from.

This also made me wonder about Able Danger. If there is anything negative about the Bush administration that could come out in hearings, I doubt it would be nearly as bad as the Clintonistas involvement. Of course, the Left can take nothing and spin it into something. The Bush administration's actual take-over was delayed until well into January, by all of the recount brou-ha-ha, and Clintonista shenanigans.

Clinton has proven that he plans to attack and make everyone but he and Hillary be the bad guys. So, we may be hearing even more truth and facts to counter the onslaught of lies and to minimize any negatives. One can only hope!

I know a lot of people say it is unrealistic to hope that the Able Danger investigation will amount to anything. It could if certain people want it to, and I guess time will tell.

The Clinton attacks and the president speaking out like this may have nothing at all to do with possible Able Danger revelations. Regardless,at least, we now are seeing some of the lies countered with truth. I want them to say it LOUD and say it LONG.
