The Washington Post went so far as to call this liberal exercise, "Clinton's war on terrorism." They totally ignore the fact that before George W. Bush coined the phrase, nobody had even heard about a "War on Terrorism." Any half-brain knows Bill Clinton only had an "Investigation on Terrorism" – and there is a big difference.
Recall that every time Osama bin Laden attacked our nation, Bill Clinton called Janet Reno and had her send some FBI agents out to investigate. Even when the attack was launched on foreign soil against our State Department, or our U.S. Navy, Clinton had Reno send the FBI.
Here's an analogy: Let's say that there is a tree in the forest that needs to be cut down. Your choice of tools will either be a weed-whacker or a chain saw. Of course, the weed-whacker symbolizes the FBI, whereas the chain saw represents the U.S. Department of Defense.
Liberals also brag endlessly about their efforts to solve problems, and they're always "working so hard on the people's behalf," and especially "for the children."
The crisis du jour demonizes their political enemies, propels their political agenda, and keeps them in power … which is their real agenda.
