You on the other hand, dont seem to be thankful for anything others do for you, I hate to think we have individuals here as unamerican as you are.

People are dying for your safety, and all you can do is be as ungreatful as you can ever be...
Yeah, tell me about it. You, like many Bush apologists, have gone from wanting Osama's head to not caring if he's caught or not. That's not only outrageous, but it's doing a disservice to those that died on 9/11 as well as their families.

well if the argument is based on timelines, Bill Clintons method thru the courts got us 8 years without a terrorist attack.
You must be kidding?

We were attacked throughtout the 90's because clinton did nothing - except regard the attacks as a criminal matter, which is what Obama would like to do.

Embassy bombings
Kobart Towers
The Cole 9/11

Not to mention all the attacks in other countries.

So Obama wants to implement the failed strategy of the clinton admin.

McCain should club him over the head with this.

Meanwhile the author of the 9/11 attack remains free as a bird. Thanks a lot George!
We have the guy who planned and plotted the details and strategy of 9/11.
Khalid Mohammed. Or were you not aware of this?

I think that the response was that there were no more attacks here in North America. If we are to start scoring terrorist vs US since 9/11 on your terms, then GWB does not have any better record, including yesterday's car bomb and last week's break out of Al Qaeada operatives from prison.

Got him for what? At the time he was offered to Clinton, he had no proof that Obama had actually done anything. The FBI's 10 most wanted still doesn't blame Bin Laden for September 11.

While we're off attacking a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. Yeah, that's great.
