Mr. Meehan, can you tell me why your boy Klinton did not take out bin Laden in December when he had in the intell to do it?

Oh Yeah! I forgot, he was busy selling pardons and looting the White House!

Fox News Channel's Brian Kilmeade grilled him on whether he missed a chance to prevent the worst terrorist attack in world history during his own presidency.

KILMEADE: Mr. President, there's a report today that you had the best shot at (Osama bin Laden) in December, in the waning weeks of your presidency and at the last minute you said "No,too much of a risk." How true is that?

CLINTON: No, it's not true. The best shot we had at Osama bin Laden was when I bombed his training camp in 1998 and we missed him by just a matter of hours. Maybe even less than an hour.

KILMEADE: Do you feel somewhat responsible?

CLINTON: Well, let me say this. We tripled the intelligence budget for counterintelligence -- for counterterrorism. Because I believed, as I said, that these kind of threats would be the most likely ones.
