Republican's and Conservatives love to blame everyone else for their problems.

When Clinton balanced the budget, they took responsibility saying it was because they had Congress.

When we started hitting deficits again because of THEIR tax cuts, they blamed Obama.

For a party that loves to cry about personal responsibility, they sure have a hard time practicing what they preach.

The 1993 attempt was bin Laden's doing, now? You should inform the FBI.

Don't forget OKC. There were Iraqi connections to that attack which were covered up by the Clinton administration.

Clinton's reaction - or lack thereof - to the many attacks carried out during his tenure emboldened bin Laden and his cohorts to execute the 9/11 attacks.

What rock have you been living under?

Ramzi Yousef - nephew of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed - was responsible for that attack.

Al Qaeda, of which bin Laden was CEO, are behind almost every significant terrorist attack against U.S. interests for the last couple of decades.

hindsight is 20/20.

Bush had 8 countries warn him about an attack from the air and he did nothing. and yet you want to blame Clinton... typical Repug shuffle the blame.

Clinton was convinced Iraq had WMD and supported the Iraq war.

Complete fabrication. The CIA never had UBL in their sites nor had any assets or a "team" in place to get him at any time according to the 9/11 report, and multiple other sources that testified before the commission.

We experienced a continuing war of aggression by Islamic Terrorists under Clington, the USS Cole, Embasies, Kobar Towers, the WTC bombing,. Bush was POTUS when just one attack was made, an attack, no doubt, planned and initiated when Clinton was President. Bush waged an aggressive war against terrorism, which Clinton could not bother to extract himself from whatever intern was servicing him at the time.
You can spin and falsify anything you want, but facts are facts. Bush let UBL get away at Tora Bora. Your BS notwithstanding every single act detailed in your rant were responded to, and people brought to justice for attacks on U.S. soil. Bush waged an aggressive war against a country that did not attack the United States and ignored the opportunities to kill UBL and ignore the traitor actions of several of the people in his administration by gagging someone who exposed the truth who knew they were giving secrets to Turkey and Pakistan.

But your little circle the drain, head in the sand rants are exactly what I expect from knee jerk extremists who are more interested in protection of party than protection of their country.

Clinton had Bin Laden twice at least and let him go. If Clinton had killed Bin Laden the times he had the chance to there would probably have been no War on Terror, no money spend and probably mostly none of our soldiers and allies killed.

Thank Bill Clinton for 911 folks.

Want links, look them up in the news all over google.
They had Osama Bin Laden and let him go after he declared war on us.

Bill Clinton let this cancer of Bin Laden survive and we later got the war on terror and 911.

Facts are facts folks.
Don't give Bill Clinton too many pats on the back.
He may have loved BJs from young girls in the White House, but he sure didn't fulfill his duty as President to protect this country IMO.
Yes they have forgotten that clinton had the chance numerous times to catch or kill him and called it off right before.
