South Carolina Congressman Joe Wilson wasn’t sure what Dick Cheney meant when he accused President Obama of “dithering” on Afghanistan. On a radio show, Wilson admitted he had to look it up to figure out what Cheney meant.
Feb. 25, 1993, the terrorist attack on the WTC took place. Clinton authorized kidnapping or extradition of all involved.
Ramzi Yousef and all others involved were brought to trial and most receiver life + 240 years.
Next up was the Landmarks Plot.
That one was busted up, the perps all captured and most got life in prison.
I have a list of over 60 terrorists who were prosecuted during the Clinton administration (all my own research, by the way).
Sorry, Jared, but Clinton’s counterterrorism efforts did not begin with bin Laden and al Qaeda.
Jan. 25, 1993, Mir Aimal Kansi killed 2 and wounded 3 people turning in to CIA headquarters.
Clinton authorized covert missions to go get Kansi, one of which succeeded. Kansi was executed in Va. in 2002.
One plan involved a team of Pashtuns trained to capture Kansi. That team was later reactivated to go after bin Laden.
Next case was WTC ‘93.
“Way to cover your arse, there.”
Sure. All I did was give the context you omitted in order to present a false impression.
“But you failed to address the Pres’ willingness to send troops to die in Afghanistan and golf every Sat. The liberal left was up in arms when Bush did it…but now, it’s ok? mm-hmm.”
It was not Bush playing golf, it was the fact they made a big deal out of Bush deciding to NOT play golf while a war was going on, then he went out and did it anyway, contrary to the pose he struck before.
I was happy for him to be o n the golf course because while he was on the links he wasn’t screwing up the military effort or the economy.
BURQA,

I then followed it with stuff you can’t handle
Sure, I can handle it…sure Obama has refocused our military efforts against Al Queda. pssst…normally a non-response indicates agreement.
And I eagerly welcome a discussion on Clinton’s counterterrorism “efforts”. Let’s start with when Clinton was first briefed on the threat of Al Queda and Bin Laden.
JARED.
Try to focus.
I said he didn’t have time to play golf with BIN LADEN. I then followed it with stuff you can’t handle. See my first post and run away from that one, too.
As for Clinton, oh I LOVE debating conservatives on Clinton and counterterrorism…. But you’ll run away from the points I make in that debate, too….

It’s not “dithering” when you install a more aggressive commander.
It’s not “dithering” when you launch more Predator drone attacks in 9 months than Bush did the previous 12.
It’s not “dithering” when you add 21,000 combat troops and 13,000 support troops.
Wilson needs to get that dictionary out and look up “blithering,” as in “blithering boob.”

2005:
Democratic House campaign committee chair Rahm Emanuel, calling First Read immediately after Kaine’s and Corzine’s victories were announced, argued that it’s clear Democratic voters were already energized earlier in the year when Democrat Paul Hackett nearly won a traditionally GOP-leaning Ohio House district. “I think that’s even more true today.” He also pointed out that the mayors of Detroit, Cleveland, and St. Paul, MN were all losing. “A lot of incumbents are losing to change,” he said (although he neglected to mention that these three mayors are Democrats, though the one from St. Paul endorsed Bush last year).

Maye Obama should challenge Osama bin Laden to a golf game, the casualties are mounting up among his weekend pals.

Obama doesn’t have time to play golf with bin Laden. H’s too busy putting the focus of the war effort back on al Qaeda and ordering more Predator drone attacks on al Qaeda types.
When they build the George W. Bush Memorial Library, I wonder if they will display the thank-you note from bin Laden to Dumbya expressing gratitude for letting him escape from Tora Bora…

The display will be “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED”.

BURQA,
Obama doesn’t have time to play golf
And yet, he golfs every weekend. And not one peep from the left-wing sheep who blasted GW for doing the same.

THAT note is already in the Clinton library.

Jarhead,
Obama didn’t start those stinking wars. Your hero W did. And how do you know he plays golf every weekend? Because Fixed News says so?

SGL,
Obama didn’t start those stinking war
So, what you’re saying is that the American lives and civilian lives being lost aren’t Obama’s responsibility because he didn’t start the wars? Newsflash, dittohead…Obama has called the war “absolutely necessary”. I guess Olbermann and Matthews didn’t cover that, or else you would’ve heard about it.
And how do you know he plays golf every weekend? Because Fixed News says so?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!..YES…anyone who disagrees with the annointed one automatically gets their information from “fixed news”…nice try and typical of a nodding head liberal.
All a free-thinker would have to do to confirm Obama golfs every weekend is get their head out of Olbermann and Matthew’s arses and google it. Why don’t you try that, SGL?
