I agree, sadly. 1993 was the year this war should have started....

Rush Limbaugh mentioned yesterday that the Saudi's offered to turn Osama bin Laden over to the United States twice during the Clinton administration -- and the offer was rejected both times.

[wny]

This, of course will get zero coverage by the networks this evening. But if Quayle had said "I think it was really a policy breach. It was the inaction of THIS administration..." then it would be the lead story on CBS, NBC, CNN, ABC, MSNBC. And it would be on the front page, above the fold, of the NY Times, the LA Times, Washington Post and the other liberal propaganda sheets.

[1Old Pro]

It doesn't surprise me a bit that the Liberals in politics and the media made Qualying Quayle their top priority.

Dan Quayle WOULD HAVE LIVED UP TO HIS CONSERVATIVE VALUES and that scared libs to death. Thus, they knew they had to pull out all the stops to convince Americans that Dan was a dim-bulb lightweight.

Quayle is just the opposite, a true conservative who would have been perhaps the only potential presidental candidate to REALLY carry the Reagan torch. So sad....

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Now you're talking! Thank GOD for former VP Quayle! At last, the hammer is hitting the nail on the head.

Clinton is the Culpable Culprit and deserves charges of treason, arrest, and imprisonment or worse.

"The first thing you have to remember is that (Clinton) issued an executive order that said.... you can't use an individual who has terrorist connections in order to develop information about terrorist organizations, which is a huge bungle."

This message is brought to you by the committee to consider Senator Clinton of New York for President.

Who cares about scapegoating an ex-impeached President? Go after the real dangers and that is Dame clinton and Janet Reno who loathed the CIA/FBI/Police/Military. Those are the two that caused 911 and need to be ousted. Why didn't Janet Reno/Dame clinton capture terrorists in the same fervor she captured a 10 yr old refugee??? Why did we sell our secrets to China and then hide the truth? Why did Reno and the JOD cover up the possible details of the Oklahoma bombing? That one looks more and more like the first WTD bombing?? Why did they release and honor so many terrorists?? These are the questions that can damage the current DemonicRat leaders.

Pray for GW and the Truth

Coulson said the Clinton executive order, "defies reason, it defies logic, and it's not consistent with the law."

It doesn't defy reason, if Clinton's purpose was to protect the terrorists.

[Joy Angela]

Former Vice President Dan Quayle said Monday night that the lack of a firm policy to deal with terrorism during the Clinton administration was more responsible for leaving America vulnerable to the 9-11 attacks than any FBI or CIA intelligence failures.

I've always liked Dan Quayle! He speaks so clearly and without the BS spin.

We little people can think and say the same thing ( see forum topic GUILTY CLINTON: 9-11 It Ain't My Fault http://www.newsmax.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/000213-17.html ! ) but no one listens. I hope and pray that the American Public will listen to Dan Quayle!

I am reading Howard Kurtz's SPIN CYCLE, and one of Clinton's protective devises was to avoid having stories on the Evening News...if a scandal had to get out, they preferred print media, because millions would see the report if it hit TV!

With Quayle's past problems with the Media, maybe, just maybe..they'll put Quayle's comments on the News to make fun of him and the TRUTH will get out!

TRUTH: Clinton left America VULNERABLE to attacks!

[MeekOneGOP]

"I don't believe 9-11 happened because of an intelligence breach," Quayle told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes."

"I think it was really a policy breach. It was the inaction of the previous administration, by and large, that al Qaeda -- and bin Laden in particular -- thought that they could hit the United States, and there would be a retaliation maybe of a cruise missile but nothing more than that," he explained.

The comments make the former vice president, who served under President Bush's father from 1989 to 1993, the highest ranking former U.S. official to suggest that the Clinton administration should get the lion's share of the blame for not preventing the 9-11 attacks.

Quayle also insisted that President Bush would have struck back more forcefully against al Osama bin Laden after earlier terrorist attacks on U.S. interests, taking action that could have averted 9-11.

"I can assure you if a USS Cole or an American embassy that had been hit under President Bush's watch, there would have been a different response," he said. "And I really think that bin Laden.... thought that he could hit us (on 9-11) and that the response would not be that much."

He speaks the truth, imho.............

The Legacy..........

"A presidential executive order issued during the Clinton
administration hamstrung the FBI so badly that bureau
lawyers decided it would be illegal to infiltrate Osama bin
Laden's terrorist training camps in Afghanistan, a senior
FBI official during the Clinton administration said Saturday."

What the hell kind of headline is that? Ex-Bush VP

Why couldnt the headline read Dan Quayle?

[MickMan51]

"The first thing you have to remember is that (Clinton) issued an executive order that said.... you can't use an individual who has terrorist connections in order to develop information about terrorist organizations, which is a huge bungle."

Well, maybe I'm missing something, but I'd really like to see this one but can't seem to finger it on the list. Any Freepers know which Exec Order this is ??

THIS LIST is all of Clintbilly's EO's. Can any pick out the one referenced ??

[MississippiMan]

While I find almost nothing to disagree with Quayle on, the truth is that the Bush response is much more severe but the Bush Prevention Effort is as much or more hamstrung by the idiocy of political correctness. We're still firmly set out to prove that we're not going to engage in the atrocious evil of "profiling," despite the fact that 100.0% of our terrorist problems have their origin in Middle Eastern males. I flew myself a month ago and watched what looked to be Middle Eastern males boarding planes without a hitch while 75-year-old caucasians were pulled aside from the same boarding line to remove their shoes. Common sense has left the building and I wonder if it's ever coming back.

Few here blame W for what happened. Many choose to blame Clinton. No one blames Pappa Bush or Reagan though. Everyone of them is to blame for not understanding that Russia wasn't the one to worry about.

[bandleader]

When I first saw this this morning(News Max),I wasn't sure what he(Quayle)meant.Once I read it I knew that he was EXACTLY RIGHT!!!Dan Quayle was a VERY WORTHY ASSET!!!!!!!

[Lucky2]

Dan Quayle is really a smart, articulte guy who is again, as always, right on target. I blame x42 and all those who supported him for 9/11. If x42 had had any guts, he would have gone after Bin Laden when warned and taken care of business. But no, we had to elect that jerk a for a second time and allow him to bomb asprin plants while he was serviced in the oval office. What a disgrace he and hildabeast are. I hope the voters in New York wake up to the fact that they have voted in the most evil woman of evil women ever seen in American politics.

[lavaroise]

The former vice president also suggested that political correctness played a key role in allowing the 9-11 hijackers to elude U.S. anti-terror watchdogs

It should read

LEFT WING PROSELYTISM

Not just mere PC.
