By your measure Christopher Columbus was a total failure because he never found the fountain of youth. You leftwing extremists have a shifting definition of what it is you need to criticize so whatever good done never is acceptable to you unless it was done by a democrat even if the politician is a crook. You are not saying you think Bush is competent. After six years of this adminstration, even you can't believe that nonsense. Clinton embarrassed himself and Fox had the honesty to show his aggressive behavior. He got what he wanted because people are talking about him again. He is trying to revise history to miscorrect the accurate perception that he was out to lunch on terrorism. Intelligent people are not buying it. Embarrassment himself? Uh uh. Embarrassing one's self is Bush rying to say "nuclear" or cursing with an open mike while eating with his mouth full at a state dinner. When he stated that he had the opportunity to take Bin Laden but declined, how can you criticize President Bush for not being able to find a needle that nearly every insane person on the planet wants to keep safe from justice? First of all, that's not what Clinton said. Secondly, every guy who was spoken on this issue and was from the group that was going after bin Laden in Tora Tora says they were very close to finding him but needed more manpower. Guess what.......their request was denied by Rumsfeld. Bottom line: the guy who had the best chance of catching bin Laden has failed miserably. Not that that is any big surprise......Bush has failed at pretty much everything he has tried.
