I will politely conclude by saying, if there is another 9/11, then, it is most certainly the fault of one and only one man, George W. Bush.

You can say that yes, Clinton had everything screwed up, and yes, Bush was doing his best by 9/11 to straighten things out, and it happened, but one thing is certain:

History will totally condemn George W. Bush as a wimp and a complete failure, if, following the very serious attack on the United States on 9/11, he responded only as he has, with very limited strikes on a nation involved only in the periphery.

Furthermore, Bush's failure to hold the Saudis responsible for 9/11 will be seen as the most craven act of cowardice that any public leader ever committed, ever, in the history of Western Civilization.

I will be watching the History Channel in the bunker of my nursing home, wearing Depends, and I can see the documentary now.

If you think history is going to slam X42, you will be amazed at how the historians will crack on W for wimping out in the War on Terrorism.

Mark my words.

I will speculate and say this, however. If another attack even more serious than 9-11 happens, everyone will cry foul and say Bush didn't do enough. Yet, there are some now who are saying he's doing too much- including Rush and other conservative talk show hosts. You can't have it both ways. But I suspect that it will be those who are crying foul now will be the same people complaining that not enough was done. It is the nature of the beast. After all, hindsight is 20/20. And we are seeing that right now.

Maybe no one saw GW Sr. defending the Saudi prince on TV,
where he stated that the Saudis' could say that Israel
were the terrorists. (not an exact quote, but it made me sick)
