Pubs are pretty pathetic absolutely when it comes to foreign policy. Neanderthal diplomacy hasn't worked since...well the age of the Neanderthal.
Dems are superior and President Obama absolutely can't be matched by the hapless Pubs. This precision effort that Obama orchestrated to tale bin Laden out is a clear demonstration of this.
Clinto was actaully advised according to reports by the Sudan governamnt that they could arrest and turnover Bin Laden, The clinton administration refused the offer and when asked said it was not ware of ben laden beig a terroist that threatened the US. Even when the first world trade building bombing happened;Clinton administration viewed it has a law enforcement problem ;not a national security problem ;so NYPD investiagted it ;not the federal authorities. That paints a different picture of just what Clinton view as the threat of terrorism.That paihnts a picture of a administrtion under clinto that was lacks to say the least about terrorism threat even after the first bombing much less the number across the world.Kind of reminds you of Obams satement on when to invene verus his Libya action or his voting against raising the deficit when Bush was presdient or Gtimo military7 trials under Bush. Can you say flip-flop and plain ole Lying is common with liberals.
Too funny, Clinton is such a tool. Talk about revisionist history? The guy fired a $100 million missile at a ten cent tent, that was the extent of his pursuit of Obama.

I like the way people are playing this up as a repudiation of the Bush approach to the war on terror. Yet this only makes sense if Obama himself had actually repudiated that approach. He has instead tripled down in Afghanistan, continued the war in Iraq, multiplied the drone attacks many times over, and continued to treat international law as well as the U.S. Constitution as flexible rules in the waging of war and enforcement of national security.
His policy is the same as George W. Bush and the Republicans plan.
And President Obama has already promised us more war:
bin Laden's "death does not mark the end of our effort. There’s no doubt that al Qaeda will continue to pursue attacks against us. We must – and we will – remain vigilant at home and abroad. . . . The cause of securing our country is not complete."
Clinton, throughout the 90's, attack after attack, did NOTHING to get OBL. In fact, he was handed to him on a silver platter at least twice and Bubba declined, saying they didn't have enough evidence on him.
Those attacks led directly to 9/11. OBL even stated on a few occasions he thought the US weak and could not stomach at fight - and he got that opinion from Clinton's inaction.
The republicans came out the next day saying the attack was uncalled for and kept referencing, over and over, the movie "Wag The Dog" because the Lewinsky scandal was a-brewin'.
It was one of the things that pissed me off so much after 9/11.
