Memo to Bill: Stay Away
New York Daily News - Opinion Page | November 17, 2001 | Lt. James McCaffrey, FDNY

Memo to Bill: Stay Away

Yonkers: As someone involved in and affected by the events of Sept. 11, I have a request for former President Bill Clinton: Please do not attend any event that involves the members of the New York City Fire Department. Do not attend any memorial service, concert or other gathering. And, most importantly, do not set foot on that hallowed site known as Ground Zero.

In my opinion (and it is one shared by most of my FDNY brethren), Mr. Clinton is the single individual in this country most responsible for the events of that infamous day. His emasculation of the military and our intelligence agencies contributed significantly to the evil perpetrated on so many innocent Americans.

Please also forward this request to his spouse and their treacherous coterie of blame-America-firsters, multiculturalists and anti-military elitists. Also, tell him that he has finally discovered his legacy: It sits as a smoldering ruin at Liberty and West Sts.

Lt. James McCaffrey, FDNY

morale has gone up tremendously and that he and his fellow airmen are PROUD to serve under President Bush.

As well it should. He has brought honor and dignity and respect back into the White House, speaks well of our troops, which he mentions every address, and isn't a lying, cheating, piece of #$%^.

He has told me that since Mr. Bush was elected that morale has gone up tremondously and that he and his fellow airmen are PROUD to serve under President Bush.

That is so great to read. We know it in our hearts because we see it on the faces of the troops in those moments when President Bush is around them, but it is great to hear it first hand. Really good stuff!

Perhaps you should do a search for a thread that was up yesterday about Rumsfeld and the military and DOD. You will find out many ways the Clinton adminstration emasulated the military, and that is why we are just now getting real results in our war. I don't recall the exact name, but it had something to do with Biblical Job, perhaps someone else could help us out?
Also reference the Sept. issue of Vanity Fair magazine and it's insightful article about Clinton's war with the military. Funny how all of these people are spilling their guts now.

BTW, I sent an email to New York Daily News, thanking them for printing Lt. McCaffrey's letter and told them they could add my name to the list, too.

I hate to be the informer of bad news, but because of Clinton, the air war is all we have at the moment. If we should decide to go in to Iraq, it will take a year, or more to build up what Clinton torn down to get the job done. It's liberal's and Clinton lover's of your ilk, why we are the subjects of terrorism in the first place.

Some people just never get the full picture.

I can't be a conservative and believe what you typed.

Although the taliban is getting hammered, we are doing it with about half the military that we should have right now. We cannot fight two wars at once which is the level we were at prior to Obubba bin Laiden and his soft-on-terrorism stance. The taliban is getting everything we have so it looks impressive, but if we have a second front to fight, we are out of luck.

Obubba bin Laiden also cut the investigations force by more than half. He also made it illegal for our CIA to make connections with and payments to anyone who had some kind of criminal record, which was one of the most idiotic (read: liberal) things he could havee done.

He released the 16 or so FALN terrorists in 1999 to set up The Hildabeast for her senate run, despite the fact that the House voted overwhelmingly to denounce Obubba's clemency offer.

Your little try to stick this on Bush won't work on this forum, bud. Try it on the idiots who haunt the liberal forums.

Remember, if you want to make a Conservative mad, lie to him. If you want to make a liberal mad, tell him the truth.

This is the true feeling of the majority of the FDNY. Lt. McCaffrey hit it right on the nose.

X-42=LYING KING

And they both need to stay away from where real people are heroes! They both are so phoney! Grassontop

> Can you name the country that has:

 *     709,000 regular service soldiers;
 *     293,000 reserve troops;
 *     Eight standing army divisions;
 *     20 air force and navy air wings with 2,000 combat aircraft;
 *     232 strategic bombers;
 *     13 strategic ballistic missile submarines with 3,114 nuclear warheads on 232 missiles;
 *     500 ICBMs with 1,950 warheads;
 *     Four aircraft carriers, and;
 *     121 surface combat ships and submarines, plus all the support bases, shipyards and logistical
assets needed to sustain such a naval force. Is this country Russia? No, it's not. Red China? Nope. Great Britain? Hardly! Give up? Well, don't feel too bad if you are unable to identify this global superpower
because this country no longer exists. It has vanished.

These are the American military forces that have disappeared since Bill Clinton took office.
