Re: "Yeah but under Clinton we got attacked A LOT by terrorists and he did nothing at all."

Good point, maybe he should have attacked the French. They're not that likeable and there are a host of Muslims living there. Oh, wait, maybe he should have attacked the Arab nation that was the most opposed to the Al Queda brand of terrorism. The nation that had persecuted fundamentalist Muslims mercilessly. The nation that had killed radical fundamentalist clerics and members of their families. Maybe he should have attacked Iraq and made them pay for terrorist attacks. Naw, that's too stupid, I think he should have attacked the French.

Just like when some stranger robs you, you don't go around targeting every stranger who you can't say for sure didn't do it. Sometimes it's better to do nothing at all while you isolate and target a solution, than to make a frigging mess by doing something really stupid and paying the price for years or decades while the guilty slip away. That's just my opinion, but then I'm not a red-blooded, "By God someone's goin to pay" real American, I guess.
