CIA Officials Reveal What Went Wrong – Clinton to Blame
Christopher Ruddy Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2001

The worst, single most tragic day in the history of America has just passed. Tuesday more Americans likely died than all the casualties of the Battle of Antietam on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 1862. Already the media spin on yesterday's events is relentless. The talking heads are pushing several themes, including: Now is not the time to point fingers at responsible parties in America, i.e., political figures like Clinton or our own security agencies. The events of Tuesday are the "worst-case scenario" – the worst is over. Osama bin Laden is the culprit.

On these points of spin, the first one is baloney. Of course we need to find why our security failed. This is basic. And unless the big media are consulting a psychic better than the one I use, no one knows what the future days, weeks and months may yield. This is not the worst-case scenario. A worst-case scenario is a 25-megaton nuclear bomb detonated in New York or a full-scale attack against the U.S.! These should not be ruled out.

These dangers can be avoided, we pray, but only if we stop listening to the media idiots that feed us a diet of blow-dried nonsense. Is Katie Couric going to say how bad she feels for the terrorists who were driven to these cowardly acts? It is the big media and the hack politicians that led us to this nightmarish day.

Ruddy should be tarred and feathered for this kind of hogwash.
Clinton is to blame for a lot of things, but not this.
I thought Ruddy was a patriot and an American, I guess I was wrong.

"I thought Ruddy was a patriot and an American, I guess I was wrong."

Welcome to FR, newbie.

Eating our own is a time-honored practice here. I suggest you watch a while before you start in on it. Best to leave it to the professionals.

Clinton set this up with his campaign for himself - a Nobel Peace Prize. That is what you get when you have trailer trash in the Presidency.

[LarryM]

What you say isn't true. Clinton made no serious effort to whack Bin-Laden, even after the two embassy bombings.

[peteram]

.....AND the first WTC bombing in 1993 - during HIS watch.

[peteram]

By cutting back the budget - Clinton (the draft dodger) decimated our military defense system and our intelligence systems as well. We MIGHT have ben able to see this coming. He left this country vulnerable.

I am formally fingering this poster as a DISRUPTOR.

First, he posts less than HALF the article by Ruddy (without telling us that this is not the complete article). Does HONESTY mean anything to this individual?

Second, he uses the post as an occasion to DEFEND the TRAITOR CLINTON.

Third, the part he conveniently fails to post contains the damning information about Clinton that led to the article's appearance in the first place. You can read the entire Ruddy piece here: http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/9/11/232727.shtml

Fourth, look at the guy's "nick." It is Bubba. This guy is a Clinton associate, in all likelihood. And, I repeat, a DISRUPTOR, using this nation's tragic loss of yesterday as an opportunity for spin control to help Clintigula.

Clinton weakened every aspect of our nation's security, he covered up Flt. 800, he is in bed with the terrorists.

Anybody got a photo of the Palestinians dancing in the streets? I want to put it with the photo of Hitlary kissing Suha. You know, connect the dots for my lib "friends."

[Irene Adler]

"Clinton is to blame for a lot of things, but not this."

The Clintons spent eight years dismantling security and intelligence operations and weakening the military in this country. They treated national security like a stale joke or something that just got in their way.

On a related note, FREEPERS, what influence do you think the events in NY and DC will have on efforts to move toward amnesty for illegal aliens in the U.S.? I would guess that topic will be shelved for the forseeable future.

[BubbaZanetti]

Thank you, ban me by all means.

Excellent observatons BenR2, I read, his comment the same way you did....I was like What? Eight years of coddling and doing nothing even after numerous terrorist attacks on our military, embassies, and the first WTC bombing.....Disappearing PCs, missing files, CIA breaches, breaches in the State Dept, we had no national security and no effort to find these terrorist animals...the only thing Clintooon did, was arrest a bunch of low level scapegoats and bring them here to NYC for trial, and put them in our jails, he sunk us big time! Thanks BenR2.

Haven't you heard, sir???? Clinton was busy doing work at his desk!!

[BubbaZanetti]

You should write detective novels.

More proof we need at least a month of silence from those who don't realize that this is a "Conservative News Forum". They obviously can't police themselves or post rationally.

[lavaroise]

money and bureaucrat making vs. weapon making, the weapons people will always win. Clinton was responsible for dowsizing the latter. Hence we lose. He definitely is responsible. Even our scientists and nuclear labs are depleted to levels where we would have a hard time being able to duplicate their abilities in weapon making and maintaining in the near future if nothing is done to undo CLinton's years.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Arafat was the most invited guest to the Whitehouse during Clinton years.

You may be and probably are a patriot. You are also an idiot!

I know Clinton is out of the country. But, out of curiosity, how close is the first set of offices he looked at in Manhattan to the WTC? Just asking.
