Clinton in No Rush to Probe Past Intelligence Failures
Clinton in No Rush to Probe Past Intelligence
Failures

Ex-president Bill Clinton, who's been under fire lately for not
going after Osama bin Laden agressively enough during his own
administration, said Friday that the U.S. should stay focused on
the war on terrorism and not get distracted by investigations
into past U.S. intelligence failures.

"There will come a time we can look back and say, 'Well, who
should have done what, when.' And it ought to be done," Clinton
told ABC's "Good Morning America."

"But now is not the time," he insisted.

Clinton's words appeared to be aimed at Connecticut Sen. Joseph
Lieberman, who called for a board of inquiry on Thursday into the
attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, saying the U.S.
needed to find out why it was so vulnerable.

Since the Sept. 11 attacks, Clinton has seemed obsessed with
dodging responsibility for any U.S. intelligence lapses, and has
even stopped passers-by on the street to describe his own efforts
to get bin Laden.

So far Mr. Bush is still after Microsoft and let's see in 8 years of Clinton by your account we had some 270 Americans killed in attacks on foreign soil or roughly 40 per year. And none in the US or 0 per year. During Mr. Bush's term we have had 5000 killed in US seven months or roughly 8000 thousand per year. And the results of getting the terrorists are no better for now even though we have bombed the bejesus out of Afghanistan and are about to spend 100 billion of deficit spending to GET EM AND SMOKE EM OUT! So garbage in garbage out, whose garbage stinks the most. You shouldn't attack the record of the departed when the acting has presided over the largest attack on America ever.
