You idiot, 9-11 happened on Bush's watch. What kind of a stupid liar are you anyway? You can't actually believe Clinton had any influence over whether or not 9-11 was carried out. He was gone for almost a year by then.

Bush was the one who disbanded all Clinton's top-quality counter terrorism units, including Richard Clarke's Al Qaida desk inside the White House. Bush was the one who ignored the specific warning on 8-6-01 that OBL was determined to attack inside the US probably using hijackings. And it was Clinton who was heads-up and stopped the 1999 LAX bombing.

So what did Bush do when warned on 8-6-01 in Crawsford Texas? Nothing. He did absolutely nothing. Not a single phonecall was made to the FAA, FBI or anyone. Rice didn't do anythying either and she was supposed to be his "security advisor".

Also, why did Bush call the FBI off Saudi nationals inside the US? Why didn't he push the USS Cole investigations? Why did he let all the Saudis ou8t of the country on 9-13-01 without interrogation? And why did he let Osama Bin Laden escape at Tora Bora when even Geraldo knew we had him cornered? You don't get it, lady. Bush is terrible on counter-terrorism. And while Clinton wasn't perfect, at least he was on the ball.
