Close only counts in horsehoes and hand grenades. You left out the part about Clinton turning down offers from the Sudanese government to hand over Bin Laden to the United States.
I hope you're not blaming Bush for the 9/11 attacks. I blame the Clinton administration. For 8 years the Clinton administration did what they could to basically destroy the defense budget. FBI agents were trying to fight through government imposed walls, handcuffed by government imposed restrictions and starved for basic information technology. And let's not forget the terrorist attacks which happened under Clinton's watch: 1. The first WTC attack on 2/26/93. Clinton did nothing. He didn't even visit the site. He also allowed this attack to be classified as a criminal act by individuals, even though the mastermind of the attack was Ramzi Youssef who, by the way was an Iraqi intelligence agent. 2. 10 months after the inital WTC attack, there was the attack in Mogadishu on american military forces who were in the country to bring food to starving Somalis. 3. The 1996 bombing of the Khobar Towers in Saudia Arabia. This was done by Iranian and Palestinian terrorists acting on behalf of Al-Qaeda. The Saudi government refused to cooperate in finding those responsible - the Clinton administration did nothing about it. 4. 1998 - the year of the Lewinsky, Al-Qaeda blew up the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. Over 200 people were killed and over 6,000 injured. Clinton's response? The missile strike of the medicine factory and an EMPTY terrorist camp. Despite the above, EVERY year that these attacks occurred, the Democratic leaders supported bills to cut US intelligence funding and other funding for CIA operations. Additionally, I think it was 1995 when Al Gore was appointed to head a task force to tighten aiport security. That task force's key reccomendation which might have prevented 9/11, was rejected by the White House on fears of racial profiling. Who would have thought that Al gore was actually able to come up with a novel idea? And then for that idea only to fall upon deaf ears. Like you, I certainly do not agree with everything the Republican party does and I certainly do not vote one party blindly. But do I think we will be better off with Bush for the next four years? DEFINITELY.
As for the economy? Considering what happened on 9/11, I think the economy is in pretty damn good shape. Especially of late. The GDP has grown by more than 5% in the last 3 quarters. (Which is the fastest rate of growth in 20 years.) There have been 1.5 million jobs created and steady job gains in the last 10 months. Without boring you with Kerry's voting record on national security issues and defense spending, I think this country will be much better off and safer with Bush for the next 4 years. -------------------- |
