inode, you say that Clinton could have "caught or killed" bin Laden on multiple occasions. That is correct. Maybe you haven't noticed but bin Laden is STILL around 7 years after 9/11. Bush hasn't caught or killed the guy. While this is true, because Bush has decimated AQ bin Laden has not been able to produce further attacks. Bin Laden is well hidden, but has been neutralized. However, like cockroaches, if you don't stamp them all out, they'll be back. Clinton TRIED to kill the guy but all he got from the Republicans was RIDICULE. No, he did not. In two separate incidents, after Clinton gave his approval for bin Laden to be killed, the White House backed out at the last minute. In one instance, CIA discovered a swingset in the camp and decided there could be children, so they didn't pull the trigger. In the second incident, bin Laden was on a hunting trip with a UAE prince, and they were afraid of killing the prince and failed to pull the trigger. The problem was that Clinton continued to treat bin Laden like a criminal after the '93 and later attacks. He failed to recognize we were at war. As did most everyone else, to tell the truth. As to your final remark, in no instance have you refuted anything I've said. Your posts are among the shallowest and least compelling of any I see here.
