See previous post!

Some people are so ignorant of inconvenient historical fact and so anxious to blame somebody else it makes me want to cry.

Let's blame Reagan and H.W. Bush. Why did we support Bin Laden and others during the Russian occupation of Afghanistan? Why did we support Ho Chi Minh during WWII? Why didn't we provide Ho Chi Minh's request for material support to fight the French?

Blame, blame, blame.

It's already been posted and if you missed it it's in THE 9/11
COMMISSION REPORT.

on the last comment about the French;
we were stupid enough to let them drag us into their Viet war.
Once US troops were on the soil, frenchies start pulling out very fast.
and there we were.

You can't possibly still think this is relevant. I know you hate Bush but, there's a time when you have to stop considering things that could have been something he did wrong and have long since been found out to mean nothing. You can't putting it up on your teams score board any more once it's worth no points. All that does is point out that you wish it still meant something because you hate Bush....we got that part along time ago....now you have to start getting the part about when something no longer meant anything a long time ago.
As most of us know, whenever a crime is committed, the police or investigators usually come up with a name of a perpetrator. After the perpetrator is identified, the investigators usually look to "family and friends" to ask them questions like, e.g., when was the last time you saw Bin Laden? when was the last time you heard from him ? what do you know about his plans to ram airliners into skyscrapers? did you know he was planning this?

I and many other people feel that the evacuation of the Bin Laden family was highly suspicious, and think that maybe, just maybe someone other than the Bush administration, (FBI, CIA,DIS) may have wanted to question family members and friends to find out what they knew, and when they knew it. 9/11 was not only a terrorist attack, it was a crime, which has gone unpunished and under-investigated.

Bin Laden ties to the Bush family:

Osama bin Laden's Bush Family Business Connections

We, that is, some of us feel it IS RELEVANT.

The point of my questions is that it is impossible, for anybody, to anticipate the future. Roosevelt, Truman, Ike, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, H.W. Bush, Clinton, G.W. Bush or Obama.

IF you'd waited 6 months to buy that 55" LCD TV you could've saved $600 or more but you didn't, did you? So, like all the people that are being blamed, you're stupid too. One stupid person calling another stupid for doing the same thing on a different worldly scale. Makes sense to me.

Default Bush/Rumsfeld let Bin Laden go

Senate report: Bin Laden was 'within our grasp' - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091129/ap_on_go_co/us_tora_bora_bin_laden - broken link)

Way to go Bush and Rumsfeld. The first of a series of many foul-ups you two would make over the following 7 years.

Easily 90% of our problems today are directly caused by the inept work of these fools.

And the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations committee is? Senator John Kerry, who, incidentally, LOST the 2004 election to one George W. Bush. Nope. No sour grapes there. Additionally I cannot respect a man that orders Swiss cheese on a Philly Cheese steak. It's either 'wit whiz' or not, perhaps Provolone. But Swiss cheese? And to think people actually voted for that clown.

Your assumption, whether proven or otherwise, is guilty by association. Don't know what the stats are but those kinds of things usually don't pan out.

Maybe it is a whole vineyard full of sour grapes - it still doesn't change the fact that Bush's ineptitude led to massive failures on his part that have damaged our nation to the point it will take decades to recover from his horrific screw-ups. Heck, John Kerry shouldn't be and isn't the only one with sour grapes, we all should have sour grapes towards that bumbling idiot Bush and his evil cronies. He's very obviously Bin Laden's friend and he lied to the people here about getting Bin Laden. He is an outright liar.

Thankfully we have intelligent people like you that can start a new thread when there is already a 5 page thread going on the exact same topic.

Perhaps you should run in 2012. You just might have what it takes.
