The Bin Lauden family entertained Osama after 9-11, that straight from the mouth of Mrs. Bin Lauden in Switzerland on geraldo last night. Bush let them go without interrogation. How can you defend this? Michael Moore was absolutely right, adn the rightwing owes him a big apology. Moore was right about the NRA (see Minnesota) and right about Bush and the Saudis (see the new FBI and DOD reports both on Fox News lkast night). This country is waking up to FACTS not propaganda.

Clinton was never offered Osama. That is a rightwing myth and lie. The subject was seriously debated by three experts on Fox News years ago. They determined unanimously that a low-level offer was made to some mid-level person in Yemen, just a rumor really, but was never taken seriously and never taken anywhere near Clinton. In fact, the whole thing could be a bogus story.

The fact is Clinton actively tried to kill Osama way before 9-11. He fired hundreds of Cruise missiles at him at a time when the rightwing was attacking him for trying to change the subject from Monica. So it was the Monica Lewinsky BS that protected OSama in that case. It did distact Clinton.

After the USS Cole and 9-11, Bush didn't do a thing. Totally ignored Al Qaida. Even ignored the obvious pre 9-11 warning on 8-6. Bush is responsible. 9-11 happened on his watch while he was (deliberately?) asleep at the switch. At least CLinton tried, and did stop the 1999 LAX bombing. Bush never stopped squat. In fact, he let 9-11 happen.
