"Mr. Bin Laden used to live in Sudan. He was expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1991, then he went to Sudan. And we'd been hearing that the Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them again. They released him. At the time, 1996, he had committed no crime against America, so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America."
Dems still insist that Clinton did not refuse to take bin Laden when offered.
Ben Veniste IS the epitome of oozing evil!!
I'm glad others see things as I do - you get the feeling that there would be some strange smell in the air when he is in the room - like the Sasquatch people report - something sort of like wet fur combined with something burning - hard to explain but makes the hair on the back of your neck stand on end. Ewwwwww.
When I see his face I have an overwhelming desire to punch it. Not many of these lying creeps produce that desire.
Clinton ran that right wing boogyman menace issue to a successful re-election.
At its worst, he had the FBI wasting resources going after non-existent right wingers who were supposedly setting fire to minority churches. And that is in the later half of the 1990s when the terrorism is ramping up.
"Take him" means two things. There was no will to "take him out" with a military or CIA strike. And no will to prosecute him as a criminal.
James Bond is a wuss. I want to see the left boycott such films in the future because they clearly don't believe that anyone should have a license to kill.
Here ya go!
Thanks I REALLY needed THAT.
That picture makes me want to calmly remove his glasses, place them on the floor and stomp them into bits, and THEN punch him, multiple times.
In the dictionary his picture should be next to the definition of "smug".
Wow! Quite the pack of nitwits there! Sometimes its hard to believe we survived eight years with people like this running the show.
I agree with you; however, who's doing the preemptive howling? Republicans? Or Democrats?
I think you'll find that by and large Republicans want to solve the terrorism problem. Democrats want to take power in Washington...at any cost.
>>And early reviews among veterans of the Clinton White House are decidedly negative: They argue that the show downplays the Bush White Houses culpability<<
That's right. Bill Clinton did absolutely nothing in his 8 years in office, but since George Bush didn't do enough in his 8 months in office, its Bush's fault.
Anyone that doesn't get the logic of that needs to be flogged, shot and forced to watch Rahm Emmanuel on the floor of the House for 6 hours straight.
I remember that Clinton's admin did everything they could to make Bush 43's transition difficult. They even refused to give him the keys!
I seriously doubt anyone in that administration did anything whatsoever to warn, inform, or otherwise help the transition from Clinton to W.
