Oh barf, Maddie. All that hate is levelled at us, and a lot of it occurred on 9/11. AFTER x42 ran around the world on the apology tour. AFTER you ignored the terror and the terror threats. AFTER you danced a jig with Kim Jong II, North Korean dictator who is starving his people. Just barf barf barf.

[RandallFlagg]

Just barf barf barf.

THAT'S a lotta barf. Rather a hugh amount, I might add...

[KellyAdmirer]

Maybe their hate is a product of the fact that they can't kill us as easily as they'd like to take what we have and destroy our allies. Liberals like to paint the world as such a simple place, where we can avoid that awful "hate" if we just, you know,would go along to get along, give them what they want, make nice and don't cause any trouble. How utopian....

[I still care]

You like me! You really like me!

I just don't know what I would do if they didn't LIKE me... sniff..

[Shermy]

Maddie's usual routine is that "they" hate us not due to their own beliefs and interests, but our failings.

Now she adds the innuendo about Bush because of what someone, not Bush, said about Bush.

It's hard to believe she was Secretary of anything.

[seendalite]

Good thing they didn't hate us before 9/11 or the might have run planes into our buildings...what?...they did?

[blackbart.223]

"I did not believe there was a connection to al-Qaida and Saddam Hussein" Albright said. "I now do think that Iraq has become a magnet, a gathering ground for all various groups that hate us."

I thank God this woman has no more say in American foreign policy.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

[Iscool]

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said Tuesday that she is concerned President Bush is fueling the hate of terrorist organizations.

Must be that when the terrorists blew up the USS Cole, Ms NotSoBrite thinks they did it out of love...

Albright: I Don't Know Why Clinton Turned Down Bin Laden Deal

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said Sunday that she couldn't explain why ex-president Bill Clinton turned down a deal with the government of Sudan to take Osama bin Laden into custody seven years ago. But she admitted that, "obviously, in hindsight, one would wish that some other action had been taken."

Albright feigned ignorance of the Clinton-bin Laden extradition deal during the following exchange with NBC "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert:

RUSSERT: In May of 1996 under pressure from the United States and Saudi Arabia, the Sudanese government asked bin Laden to leave. He returned to Afghanistan permanently..... Was it a mistake to let Osama bin Laden leave Sudan - or at least not apprehend him in Qatar on his way to Afghanistan?

ALBRIGHT: As I understand it, and I was ambassador to the U.N. at the time, was that basically we felt that he was too intricately involved with some of the activities in Sudan, which was a major issue for us. And that it was better to get him out of there.

Obviously, in hindsight, one would wish that some other action had been taken. But, for the most part, that was a decision made on the basis of information at that time, that he was playing the terrorist game there and that there had in fact been terrorist activity. As you know, there was an attempt on President Mubarak's life that came out of that area. And that it was probably better to move (bin Laden) out.

RUSSERT: But why not capture him, apprehend him while he was refueling in Qatar?

ALBRIGHT: I can't answer that question. (End of excerpt)

While Ms. Albright claims she doesn't know the answer to that question, Mr. Russert certainly does - though he declined to challenge her. But in fact, in May 1996, ex-President Clinton gave the order not to take bin Laden into custody, a blunder he confessed in a speech to a Long Island, N.Y. business group last year.

"Mr. bin Laden used to live in Sudan. He was expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1991, then he went to Sudan," Clinton told the Long Island Association in on Feb. 15, 2002.

"And we'd been hearing that the Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them again. They released him. At the time, 1996, he had committed no crime against America so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America."

Clinton continued:

"So I pleaded with the Saudis to take him, 'cause they could have. But they thought it was a hot potato and they didn't and that's how he wound up in Afghanistan." (End of Excerpt)

Though Mr. Clinton's confession has been widely covered in such high profile venues as the Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes," "The O'Reilly Factor," WOR Radio's "The Bob Grant Show" and, just the night before Albright protested her ignorance, WABC Radio's "Batchelor & Alexander Show" - network news organizations like Russert's NBC News have embargoed coverage of the bombshell development. ( Click Here to listen to Bill Clinton admit that he let bin Laden off the hook.)

The big media cover-up has allowed New York Sen. Hillary Clinton to escape confrontation on the issue of her husband's blunder. And two weeks ago, in an interview with WLIE Radio's Mike Siegel, she tried to blame President Bush for "mishandling" North Korea and for not stopping Osama bin Laden before 9/11. (Click Here to listen to Hillary blame Bush for not getting bin Laden.)

> .. Albright said Tuesday that she is concerned President
> Bush is fueling the hate of terrorist organizations.

The electorate needs this reminder of the choice they
face in November (unless Kerry and the DNC disclaim Ms
Notbright, and I don't see that happening).

> "From the beginning, the president has made it clear that
> we are at war with the terrorists and not with Islam.
> That is to his credit," Albright said.

Yep. The US message is: being a ferocious fundy muslim will
get you killed.

> "(But) it surely doesn't help when the American military
> official with responsibility for intelligence on al-Qaida
> claims that 'We are in the Army of God' and that George
> Bush was 'appointed by God,'" ...

When/where/how was this said, and what did the White House
have to say about it?

> ... "I now do think that Iraq has become a magnet, a
> gathering ground for all various groups that hate us."

She'd rather they came here? Gosh, we invited them to go
to where all our best warriors are, and they fell for it.
Sounds ideal to me.

> Albright testified last week before the federal
> commission investigating the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
> attacks. She said the Clinton administration used every
> tool it had to determine the right targets and acted
> when it could on the intelligence it had.

This has so little credibility that it is also great
fodder for the electorate.

But, why can't we all just... get along?(

[NYCVirago]

Albright said she believed, as the Bush Administration did, that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, but she questioned the wisdom of a pre-emptive strike against Iraq.

Didn't she and the rest of the Clinton administration commit to regime change in Iraq as an official government policy? Or was that only meant to happen if Clinton had to have a distractment from impeachment?

[Dolphy]

Albright should go to the Muslims and talk to them about fueling hatred in a country of the wealth and power of the United States.

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998.

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999.

I might as well throw this one in for good measure...

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction. "[W]ithout question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation. And now he has continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...

Dear Madame"Not So Bright"<These A**HOLES already HATE US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hole_n_one]

Half-bright was on some pol yack show tonight wearing on her jacket what appeared to be two pine tree air freshners, the likes of which one would find hanging from a car's rear view mirror.

[Ursus arctos horribilis]

Mad Maddie is a freaken idjit. But, she gets rag space for just hating Bush. Seems the media trolls for Bush haters. Oh well, I see CNN has lost half their viewership, so hope springs eternal.

[RJayneJ]

From a woman that says that Bill Clinton told her he did not have sex with that woman, and she said, "'I believe him." Any one that gullible, has no credibility in my book.

[FairOpinion]

"I believe the Bush Administration's blustering unilateralism is wrong, and even dangerous, for our country. In practice, it has meant alienating our long-time friends and allies, alarming potential foes and spreading anti-Americanism around the world."

Apparently, according to Kerry, "alarming potential foes" is a bad thing!

[KC_Conspirator]

Yes, clinking champaigne glasses with a communist dictator who is killing millions of his own people is the moral leadership we need instead of defeating evil and liberating millions according to this idiot.
