>>Neither ridiculous nor unsubstantiated. Khobar Towers. WTC bombing. USS Cole African Embassy bombings. All on Clinton's watch. The terrorists were emboldened by the Administration's namby pamby responses. << Jlallen - The fact that event B follows event A doesn't mean that A caused B. That timeline doesn't substantiate your point in any way. The people who planned and executed the first WTC attack in were found, tried and convicted on Clinton's watch. The attack on the U.S.S. Cole was in retaliation for Clinton's attempt to blow Bin Laden and most of his top people to bits with a missile strike. You have not presented any evidence to suggest that the terrorists were emboldened by any action or inaction on Clinton's part. But even if they had been, why do you suppose they weren't afraid of Bush and his administration? The fact is that the worst terrorist attack in history occurred in our country while George W. Bush was President. The fact is that those responsible for that attack are, for the most part, still at large. You know what? I don't blame Bush for 9/11. I believe that if he could have stopped that attack he certainly would have, no matter how much political benefit it has had for him. I don't think Bush could have stopped it, and I think it's incredible that you think Clinton could have. - Allen
