Well, there may be a little truth to what you say, but I'm gaging my theory on x42's reaction the first few days after the attack - he actually went into the streets of New York and accosted anyone on the street who would listen and told them how he tried so many times to get OBL. If that action doesn't reek of guilt, I don't know what does.

I didn't know Clinton did that. I did hear he walked the streets. There's another thread posted that Clinton knew where OBL was but didn't go after him.

I also heard a Congressman (Dana ?) on the Savage show saying he had contacts in Afghanistan (I think he was there as Ambassador or something, not sure) that knew where OBL was, it was a credible tip; he personally contacted the CIA (a couple years ago?), telling them the contact has credible info. of OBL's whereabouts, for the CIA to contact this individual. The congressman made another call to the CIA after a week of waiting; they were unresponsive. He finally went to Congressional Committee (Security?), which prompted a meeting with the CIA, FBI, and the Committee (this almost a month after his initial call to the CIA). Nothing happened. It was suggested by Savage, and the Congressman agreed, that Clinton put the kabosh on going after OBL. (Maybe Clinton can feel guilt.)
