My Pet Goat Goat was political fodder for the left for 8 years, and now you deny it with this tripe? LOL
How embarrassing.
Again, I am not a liberal.
Sorry, but you'll just have to attempt to actually use your brain for something other than keeping your ears apart, and realize the world isn't Us versus Them, liberals versus conservatives.

Let's look past 9/11, let's look at Richard Reid.
What these guys don't get comparing Bush's response to Reid and Obama's response to this issue are 2 things. No one doubted Bush's understanding of the seriousness of terrorism. The Obama criticism resonates with people because they really have doubts about Obama and his action with regard to terrorism.
The other thing is this incident is so close to the actual thing Reid tried to do how is it possible that we have not been able to improve security in 8 years?! This is an indictment of Obama not exculpatory.
Now this is really embarassing.

I never said if I have a personal connection with 9-11 or not. You're making assumptions. Just for the record I didn't know anyone who died that day. I do, however, have empathy for their surviving families and I personally know many people who lived in fear for months afterward. By no stretch of the imagination did the foiled bombing of flight of 253 rise to the same level of national security as 9-11 and it did not require the same level of response from the two sitting presidents.
The liberal left have yelled, whined, and cried for the past 8 years over the 7 minutes that George W. Bush took to respond to the 9/11 attacks while reading to elementary students.
But Barack Obama, vacationing in Hawaii, didn't respond to the most recent airline terrorist attack for 72 hours, and liberals have not expressed a single word of displeasure.
Would someone like to explain why exactly this hypocrisy exists? Do liberals view a failed attack as less important than a successful attack?
This is a defining moment for the liberal left and their rationale for incessantly attacking GWB. Pony up with criticism for Barack Obama's response, or be relegated to the reputation you already have for being light on national security.
What's it going to be?
Um.... you do realize you're lying, right?
I mean, he enacted several orders within hours of the incident.
You're confusing his speech to the public, where he told people what he'd already done, which Bush took a long time to get around to. Remember? It wasn't 7 minutes.
I just don't get why you all either lie or are so blinded by your partisan rage that you can't see the truth any more.
I'm not the one trying to justify a complete and utter disregard for human lives, now am I.
We aren't talking about human lives...we are talking about the responses of two presidents and the hypocrisy/double standard on the Left in using the attack for political fodder.
YOU are the only one using those deaths on 9/11 as a means to deflect.
Shameful...truly.
