OT: Anna Nicole Smith Death Ruled an Accident.

[Saint John]

Oh, and by the way.. thank God we haven't had another hit here in the US again by terrorists equaling to or exceeding what happened on 9/11/01. After GWB is gone in 09 we'll see where we're truly at.

Wait a minute. I see the spin now. You are saying we have been kept safe now because of GWB. Didn't they attack us under GWB's watch? What the Hell is that?

Can't have it both ways.

Planning was done under Clinton and execution under Bush. Both failed. And the first World Trade Center attack was under Clinton although the planning may have been under George H. Bush. What's your point?

My point is it isn't always the Dems fault like you GOPers always say.

Also, it wasn't President Clinton or any of his cabinet members who DID NOT READ THE MORNING PRESS BRIEFINGS as has been confessed by the current administration.

The planning might have been done under Clinton, but they waited for Bush to take office. They had a big shit sandwich waiting for Bush, and it didn't take long after he took office either. You'll never hear that in the news though.

[Crazie Scarab]

You really have no clue. That's all I can say.

Looks to me I just kicked some Republican ass.

But if you say so, I guess I don't have a clue.

I dig the rocknroll with you Dean. Let the politics go over, under, or around us and we'll be good.

[whocares]

the only real conclussion to be made from all of this? Republicans aren't bad people, they just can't admit when they are wrong.

Perhaps the reason Clinton didn't "take action" is because his people actually understaood the concept that people MIGHT see right through it all. Clinton didn't have to make a name for himself, he already did with monica. GW's own grudge against his Father is what made him start a war we STILL don't need to be in. He's made his name, too bad for him, he'll be known as the worst President in U.S. history, because of it.

There wouldn't have been morning press briefings had Clinton deferred the 7 times they had Bin Laden in the cross hairs. Glad his poll numbers didn't sink though.

Poll numbers don't lie. There was a reason he left with 62% approval and NOT 29% like Shrub.

She's gone. Politics isn't? LOL

Exactly, because he didn't take on the tough issues. Skirted by terrorism singing Kumbaya. 3000 citizens paid for that high approval rating. You can point out 3000 dead soldiers they had guns, not lunch pails and pocket protectors.

Give me a fucking break.

Yeah, it's Clintons' fault that the Towers and Pentagon came down. I'm sure that's what Karl Rove is typing up this very moment for the GOP talking points.

Absolutely pathetic.

[chf34jmac]

Let's get real here for a minute. And no I'm not defending GWB. I am sure however that Osama didn't wake up on 9/11 and say "you know what, let's hijack some planes and blow up a bunch of American shit" It was in the planning stages for an awfully long time. So my question is this, "where was the Clinton intelligence that should have seen it coming?" since the media keeps asking GWB how his intelligence people didn't see it coming.

[Rockindeano]

Real? Ok, let's...


The Clinton camp DID tell the incoming of the potential terrorism. Obviously the Bush people didn't bother reading morning briefings. Condaleeza Rice even admitted they were told about "possible US Airliners being used as missiles."

I rest my case.

Doesn't really matter who's fault it was, what matters is that it happened. You can't prepare for everything. They'll always hit you from the direction in which you least expect it. They've got us looking for them in this direction now, and they'll hit us from a completely different way that we haven't thought of. What has happened now is that the country is more aware and more secure. There have been subsequent terrorist plots that have been busted because of what happened on 9/11. Because of new avenues of intelligence that wasn't there before. We need to stop pointing fingers about what happened and work on what's to come.

If John Kennedy were President he would have taken it to the radicals terrorists, too. He was a patriot .That also goes for Truman & FDR. Somewhere ,somehow the Democratic Party changed. Todays world makes the Cold War look like childs play. The weapons are more powerful and more nut jobs have them. Korea doesn't worry me because China sat on them, but Iran and Chavez do. By the way look for China to move into the Carribean. Seems to me Jimmy Carter signed the Panama Canel over to China and now they intend to use it. I believe they will be drilling for oil off Mexico also. What party blocks oil drilling off our coasts? Will we see a blockade as John Kennedy did in the 60's with Kruchev over missiles in Cuba when Chaves tries to be Castro? Will a Democratic President back the Monroe Doctorine ( I think thats its name). Chavez is courting Iran. We live in a very dangerous world. I don't think there is any way out. Now, lets hear from all the 2012's.

[Rockindeano]

You bet Iran is a big problem. So is North Korea. However, we can't even neutralize either one of those states, because we are stretched too thin, getting our asses kicked in a desert toilet that has NOTHING to do with the real problems of the world. We're getting our asses kicked because of incompetence. This administration has completely fucked up this war and fucked up the region. I am befuddled to see anyone, and I mean anyone support this incompetence. Jesus Christ, if you are going to war to win, have a plan...and for fucks sake, have an exit strategy.

So, we are too thin to confront Iran because of Iraq. Now, Iran is flexing it's muscle. Kidnapping British sailors for BS reasons. They know the it will take a huge expansive effort from the west, leaving the west therfore vulnerable to say, the North Koreas of the world? So again I say, nice going with your Iraqi board war game W.

This could be Revelations for us all. After all, the Bible does say Russia will be involved. Is not Russia tied to China and iran economically? Is not Russia experiencing a cold relationship with us?

Food for thought.

[whocares]

The whole cuba situation should have been over Decades ago. Many people in the States are ignorant to what Cuba is actually run like. WE could stand for the States to be somewhat like Cuba is. THEY actually care about their OWN people there.

Yeah, Iraq knows what they are doing by taking the British soldiers, whether right or wrong. They want a war, or at least a HUGE confrontation. Will they get it? I hope not, but it may happen. They know W is quick to jump the gun, and the next thing you know, we're sending people over to ACTUALLY protect the freedom of the rest of us lazy fucks. Unlike the Iraq situation, where they aren't actually protecting our freedom here in the states.

[ohsherrie]

Quit wasting your time Dean and Whocares. There's no reasoning with a Republican because they don't know the meaning of reason. We'll just speak at the polls like the majority of the rest of this country.

That is, if we have honest polls this time.

[whocares]

but but but...

I haven't even gotten to post under my 5th margarita yet!

Oh well.

[squirt1]

Oh Sherrie- You assume that I vote Rep. but it depends on the candidate, but it is probably 60-40. There are many middle of the road Dems. There are many middle of the road Reps. It seems that the libs come from east coast and west coast and the southern Reps are too right for me. I do have feelings that the '93 trade center attack should have been acted upon. Maybe then ,they could not have regrouped for 2001. Bush perceived that we had to shut down their money sources from within this country and Europe + other countries. Yes, terrorism costs $$$$$ I really believe that Iraq is about keeping the oil open. If we move out then all that revenue goes to our attackers. China would love another source such as Iraq .Besides that they want in our hemisphere . Will this Congress allow our drilling offshore or watch China move in and take all they can. This world has changed from 30 yrs ago ,dramatically. Tell Congress we need to drill our own waters. We WILL be at war for the rest of our lives. This is the retribution for the Crusades ,our MTV lifestyle and why radical Muslims think we are infidels.
