Almost every Freeper could deal with that question without asking Jim Lehrer to repeat the names of countries where our armed forces have been under fire in the past twenty years. Yet the then Vice-President of the United States could not answer a question about the use of America's military force from memory. Remember this man was 'a heartbeat away from the presidency.'

And he was asking voters to make him Commander-in-Chief!

"A presidential executive order issued during the Clinton
administration hamstrung the FBI so badly that bureau
lawyers decided it would be illegal to infiltrate Osama bin
Laden's terrorist training camps in Afghanistan, a senior
FBI official during the Clinton administration said Saturday."
(June 1, 2002)

"I don't believe 9-11 happened because of an intelligence breach," Quayle told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes."
"I think it was really a policy breach. It was the inaction of the previous administration, by and large, that al Qaeda -- and bin Laden in particular -- thought that they could hit the United States, and there would be a retaliation maybe of a cruise missile but nothing more than that," he explained.

The comments make the former vice president, who served under President Bush's father from 1989 to 1993, the highest ranking former U.S. official to suggest that the Clinton administration should get the lion's share of the blame for not preventing the 9-11 attacks.

Didn't he say recently that he would be willing to pick up (gasp) a gun and die defending Israel? NOW the time is NOW, Go Clinton Go.

"This is a flashback thread..."

Dang, man! You should label that clearly in bold caps. The article cranked me up into a foaming-at-the-mouth rant that my wife patiently sat through for several minutes before I glanced at the article post date.

Oops!

It would be nice if we could link this crap with the one posted last week about his statements about Iraq. I have lost that link; does anybody have it?

Thanks for posting this.

Every Rat senator and congressit, every publisher/editor of left wing/maggot infested fishwraps and the news directors at ABCCNNBCBS all have senile dementia when it comes to the Clintoons actions.

When he shot up some camels and tents in Iraq during his administration, they documented the various WMD's that Soddomite had. That was in 1999 if I'm not mistaken.

What has changed since 1999? Two things have happened:

1. GW is president and they would destroy America to bring GW down.

2. Soddomite has to be a hugh cash cow for the cash impaired rats as their ceo's in business drive their poorly run companies into bankruptcy. Marha and Teddy Fronda no longer have vast sums to donate to the rats, nor do most of their big donors in the 1990's.
