"Had the Gipper been in office during 9/11, Saudia Arabia would be territory of the USA, and the their oil revenues would be flowing into the US treasury as reparations."

Let's not get carried away here... in 1983 we sent troops to Lebanon to "protect" a peace (that was no real peace) -over 200 were killed in one bombing attack. We skeedaddled out of there.

That was Reagan.

In response to 9/11, G W Bush has managed to TAKE OVER TWO COUNTRIES and our military casualties overall have been on par with that single 1983 bombing attack.

I'd take GWB's mideast approach over Reagan's any day.

That was an attack on 200 military personnel on foreigh soil. It is 10 orders of magintude below the slaughter of 3000 American cvilians on our own soil.
