ah, so Clinton did NOTHING to prevent future attacks after the WTC bombing.
that's quite a claim. too bad its totally dishonest, as Clinton did a lot to fight international terrorism.
and a damn fine job he did too :roll:
At least Clinton tried, unlike the chimp who followed him.
Apples and Oranges - most of the GWB presidency was after 9/11 when security was tightened up globally and domestically -- and when most countries decided working together against terrorists was a really good idea. Those things would have happened post 9/11 regardless of who was in office so GWB doesn't get the credit for this one.talk about dishonest.
how many attacks were there during the Bush years? now compare to the number during Clinton.

bolded: IOW Bush did something to prevent future attacks. Clinton did not. :ssst: oopsie
9-11 changed everything, especially our security apparatus. Bush's failure led to seriously needed changes.
Clinton did a lot to prevent future attacks, that's why there were no further terror attacks on the American homeland during his term.
I am confident that had Clinton's term extended through the end of 2001, 9-11 would not have taken place.
does the name Tim Mcviegh ring a bell :lamo :lamo...
and Clinton's failure did not lead to any changes. if they had 9-11 would not have happened
more dishonesty. several changes were made following the first WTC bombing.
none of which prevented the oklahoma city bombing or 9-11. :failpail:
If Clinton had done his job, Bush wouldn't have needed to make any changes to prevent 9-11. :lamo
Actually both made some efforts - Congress was willing to put for more $$$ toward security after 9/11 and global cooperation in sharing knowledge about terrorists activities increased after 9/11.bolded: IOW Bush did something to prevent future attacks. Clinton did not. :ssst: oopsie
If Clinton had done his job, Bush wouldn't have needed to make any changes to prevent 9-11. :lamo
oscar, you and grim make a great pair. you never, ever offer anything BUT your sorry ass opinion.
BTW, I guess Obama deserves credit like GWB for no international terrorists attacks on his watch.
.....
.....1995 - Attempted crashing of plane on White House
1995 - Oklahoma City bombing
1996 - Atlanta Olympics bombing
1996 - Khobar Towers bombing - Saudi Arabia
1998 - U.S. Embassy bombings Kenya/Tanzania
2000 - USS Cole Bombing - Yemen
none of which prevented the oklahoma city bombing...
strawman?ahh...so no more attacks by international terrorists upon the homeland?
not a bad record.
too bad Clinton wasn't still in office during 2001, or 9-11 would have been prevented.
again, perhaps if Bush had not dropped the ball 9-11 would not have occured.
the facts are clear: Bush made terrorism much less of a priority than it had been during the Clinton administration. 9-11 woke Bush up to his fatal errors.
strawman?...
no, it is a clear fact, not a strawman.
Nope, that wasn't Clinton. Clinton was the one who tripled the FBI's budget for counter-terrorism. Bush was the one who came into office and denied the FBI a budget increase for counter-terrorism.really? wasn't it Clinton who gutted the intel community?
Nope, that wasn't Clinton. The 9.11 Commission determined there was no evidence of that rumor being true and indeed, OBL had not committed any crimes against the U.S. by 1995 to even warrant extradition. Bush was the one who rejected a deal which would have led to OBL's arrest and extradition to a third-party country -- and that was after he was tied to the 9.11 attacks.wasn't it Clinton who refused to take bin Laden when he was offered on a silver platter?
