Clinton made us vulnerable to terrorist attacks? Give me a break. I'll tell you what made us vulnerable to terrorist attacks: Our longstanding support for Israel Our longstanding policy of meddling in the Middle East and supporting repressive regimes to control the oil Our empire building, in which we ignore domestic security in favor of building a world military empire (as evidence by the fact that we have troops and bases in dozens of countries around the world) Besides, Clinton wasn't the one in office on 9/11/01, when our suppossedly great military couldn't even scramble a few planes to defend Washington DC, despite having over an hour's lead time, and despite knowing that a plane had been hijacked from a DC airport and was heading back. Clinton also wasn't the one who sat on his ass in a classroom in Florida as the attacks unfolded. That's pretty lame to blame Clinton for 9/11. The U.S. has a decades long policy of turning our military outwards for offensive and enconomic hemogeny purposes, rather than focuses on actually defending our own country (isn't that what the military is suppossed to exist for?). I don't see how anyone in their right mind could blame Clinton for these policies that have been evolving for decades? Besides Bush was in office for 9 months, he had time to make adjustments, and he had a warning on 8/6/01 about pending terrorist attacks and apparently did nothing. Kind like watching Rep. Chris Cox trying to blame the Democrats for running up the federal deficit in recent years (he did that last night on the House floor). Is the guy smoking crack? Doesn't he know his party has been in control of our government for 4 years? The Republicans are the ones who passed these insane spending measures, and Bush never vetoed one of them. The Democrats don't have the votes to pass spending in DC at this time, how are they to blame for what the GOP has done. I'll tell you, some people are totally blinded and delusional by their partisan positions, and Rep. Cox seems to be one of them.
