Walking back the Bush defense, are we NRO?
NR stands for National RINO.
Not in evidence, National Review, but thanks for the pontificating guess.
How the mighty have fallen...
Yep... 2,688 days worth of safe. Trump's friend Bill Clinton didn't come close to that string.
Clinton failed way before 9/11.
The Clintons knew.
“He’s asking Americans to believe that he would have brought a post–September 11 mindset”
I completely disagree with that statement. I would say a “preventative’ mindset would be more accurate. A ‘proactive’ mindset even.
Gee, wonder what Brainiac French accuses Hillary’s detractors of when it comes to Benghazi...
Fail.
Trump would have slammed the border shut and instigated an immediate review of all Saudi Visa's that had been issue over the last 5 years. And he would have removed the communication firewall that Clinton/Gorelick had built between the various U.S. intel agencies.
Check this out... Over A Year Before 9/11, Trump Wrote Of Terror Threat With Remarkable Clarity
In any argument about 9/11, if the name Jamie Gorelick is not brought up, then the author is either ignorant of the whole situation or they are a liar.
All of 9/11 can be laid at her feet and what she did to protect Bill Clinton form his actions in England. Even the 9/11 commission wanted her to recuse herself from the commission so they could ask her questions about 9/11, which she did not do.
quote “that he would have been able to draft, pass through Congress, and fully enforce a comprehensive new approach to immigration by the summer of 2001”
um...
None of that is needed!
The laws are already on the books! They just are not being enforced.
Trump as usual is RIGHT!
David French. Last name says it all..white flag waver.
If Trump launches executive orders and stops holding back the enforcement of laws already on the books, he will show people how quickly something good can be performed.
Trump won’t give a care when people whine, “But those are all NICE illegals you are arresting and sending back.”
I am SO TIRED of this constant political correctness, working as adult peer pressure, which makes enforcing anything right virtually impossible.
And, imagine how much worse it would have been with an AlGore presidency!
“After all, in 2002, National Review obtained 15 of the 19 hijackers’ visa applications and discovered that none of them had been completed properly. None of them should have been approved. In other words, existing systems should have prevented the hijackers’ entry into the United States.”
That statement:
1.) Contradicts what Rush said yesterday about most of the hijackers being here legally.
2.) Contradicts his assertion that Trump would not have had time to go to Congress and get new immigration legislation, when in fact no new legislation would have been needed.
3.) Other than the Trump bashing, a fairly decent article from French for a change. Rich Lowery will not be pleased.
Actually, the fact that the FBI and CIA got rewarded for their incompetence and that not one bureaucrat got prosecuted guarantees that another attack will occur. And Homeland Security is a joke. I’ve seen the Homeland Security fools at the airports. They inspire no confidence in anything except proving that Krispy Kremes are part of the HS daily regimen.
Author contends that Trump is disingenuous because he claims he would have done what the law requires but wasn’t being done by by a POTUS who knew it wasn’t being done and should have been done but didn’t do it anyway, and because that POTUS wasn’t doing it the author thinks Trump wouldn’t have done it either even though Trump wrote in depth a year before that it should be done and he would do it if he were POTUS. Wait, what?
19 months before 9/11 Trump warned of a huge potential terrorist attack......
I think it’s a waste of time and energy to speak of 9.11 - it’s what transpired from 9.12 on that is the real travesty.
Even if anyone gives Bush/Cheney/Rice a pass, the fact that the borders were intentionally left unguarded and our Constitutional rights systematically taken away, along with a new wave of political correctness should be the focus of our angst.
Not to mention the thousands of America’s best killed or maimed, and ignored by the VA is itself an outrage.
NRO.....That is the biggest bunch of smelly freshly laid pile of poop I have ever had the misfortune of running into....
You lying media idiots need to find a life worth living, because if some intelligence every came around, you would run with your ‘pink laced panties’ in a wad!!!
TRUMP!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!! (and don’t doubt it)
