The attack of 9/11/2001 was Not His Fault, it was the fault of the Democrats who held the White House for 8 years before President Bush took power.

It seems you've forgotten the tenor of this site, it's a conservative forum, not a republican one. While there are no doubt many things to blame BJ Clinton and his cronies for, trying to tack on the actions of a group of suicidal thugs isn't one of them. 9/11 was caused by Al Qaeda, Bin Ladin, and the vicious ideology that leads them and their fellow Islamists to carry out terrorist attacks around the world on Christians, Jews, Secularists, and moderate Muslims alike.

You can choose to look at hings either as they are or through the tinted glasses of a partisan shill, you've chosen the later while I'll gladly choose the former. In many ways there was but little difference between the way Clinton governed and the way Bush has governed, and when it comes to the economy and foreign policy there indeed wasn't much difference - other than in their rhetoric. I could wish there was more of a distinction - at least on the economic front - but unfortunately there wasn't. Perhaps given the political realities of the day it's unrealistic to have expected anything better.

Yeah, right. So, his refusal to pursue Obama and his (and Gorelick's) wall of separation between the intelligence agencies don't make him culpable at all?

Extreme short sightedness isn't looking at things "as they are." Clinton's actions and rhetoric practically invited the Islamo-Nazis to attack us. And they repeatedly accepted the invitation during his term.
