E, who would you prefer be in the White House on 9/12?

GWB?

Or Albert Gore?

IMO, if Gore had been president, we'd have already exprienced the second wave of Al Quaeda attacks on our soil.

We've already discussed some the fantastic achievements of the brightest bulbs in the WH. Vietnam was one. 500 in Iraq? THAT was not even a good week in Vietnam when that genius LBJ led us into his swamp. He was so smart, he couldn't figure that you either don't fight a war or you FIGHT TO WIN.

Another genius, James Carter, couldn't figure out that in a situation like the Iran hostage mess you NEVER guarantee the criminals that cavalry will never come. You want them quaking in their boots every minute.

These are my alternatives? I'll take GWB. He understood that after something like 911, you kick *** and take names.
