Trump tweets NYT story on Bush failing to heed 9/11 warning
The Hill ^ | October 19, 2015 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 10/19/2015 12:40:17 PM PDT by maggief

Donald Trump is not letting Americans forget that the 9/11 terrorist attacks happened under former President George W. Bush.

Trump’s relentless attacks on the issue come as he battles former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fla.), George W. Bush’s brother, for the GOP’s presidential nomination in 2016.

“Interesting reading re: September 11th,” he tweeted Monday afternoon, referencing a New York Times story titled “The Bush White House was Deaf to 9/11 Warnings.” “Jeb is fighting to defend a catastrophic event,” Trump said of Jeb Bush in a separate post.

“I am fighting to make sure it doesn’t happen again,” he added. "Jeb is too soft – we need tougher & sharper.”

You mean noted Liar Richard Clarke who had a briefing with Bush right before 09-11 where he spent his time lecturing about the threat of Cyber Terrorism? The Richard Clarke who never so much as mentioned Bin Laden or Al Qeda prior to 09-11 then magically discovered he was always worried about Bin Laden AFTER 09-11?

Really want to hang your hat on that lie?

As a private citizen, what was Trump supposed to do other than sound the alarm—which he did?

Trump is aiming to get more “truthers”

Or maybe he is not pandering to anyone, just stating facts.

For those who have better than short term memories, that is what the Democrats were saying back then. It was their intention to take the heat off of the Clintons. It is outright amazing that left wing talking points from 14 years ago are being repeated by so-called conservatives, or should I say low information conservatives. Call me an elitist, I don't mind, but some of the things uttered by a certain wing of the conservative movement is just embarrassing.

Sometimes the best thing to do is just shut up.

Try it! You are making a jackass out of yourself. You troll every Trump thread. People are generally tolerant of you, but your BS is getting tiring.

The Donald is always fishing, throws a little bait in the water and BAM, set’s the hook.

He has a real genius for that stuff.

Understand that Yeb! was the first to bring the whole issue up during a debate. Jeb opened the door, and in his own book, he states that his brother W’s ‘leaky’ immigration policy led to 9/11.

“Or maybe he is not pandering to anyone, just stating facts.”

His facts or true facts?

Yeb makes remarks invoking his brother in aid of his campaign.

Trump responds throwing chum in the water. Yeb takes bait. Trump hooks him in hard.

Now, low energy Yeb saddled with brother’s actions as well as entitled dynastic label, “next Bush”, same as “another Clinton”. Whining in public about his brother being attacked.

This Baby Bush suffers from severe attention deficit disorder, can’t keep his eye on the goal, easily distracted, childish temper. How the heck did he get elected as Fla. governor?

Listening to Rush earlier. He bought back memories of the months before 9/11. For Trump to blame Bush for 9/11, just plain ignorant.

Attack bush’s amnesty. Thats fine. The dems Trump donated too back then would have impeached Bush had he gone to war before 9/11

Oh great, another so called conservative on this forum parroting the claims of a left wing hack. Richard Clarke was a Clinton man through and through.

Only problem is the source for this lie is a Satire website that foolish children around here fell for hook, line and sinker

http://dailycurrant.com/2013/09/11/george-w-bush-apologizes-failing-nation-911/

The Daily Currant is an American satirical news blog that focuses on politics, technology, and entertainment. A number of its satirical stories have been taken for true news reports by press. The Daily Currant is a competitor to The Onion.

The toughest that jeb bush ever showed himself to be was regarding his actions in the Terry Schiavo case.

And the man has the gall to talk about ‘love’.
