Bill Clinton Options

[kimmytree]

What are your views on the former President?

What about his effect on the economy?

And what about the attacks on our country? Is he to blame?

Discuss.

(Wikipedia has some good info on him).

First of all, I'm not talking to you. I was talking to mipadi. Second of all, it should have been clear I was pretending to be obnoxious. But since you don't seem to be able to realize that I am pretending ([/pundit] HAS to mean something), I'll be obnoxious.

Regardless of who it was, it wasnt like it was off topic. Excuse me for not being familiar with the typical liberal bashing by conservatives.

Again, we're talking about Clinton, not Bush. How many attacks? The attacks on Americans were overseas (Cole, Kenya, etc). The planning for 9/11 was during Clinton's term.

However, that's irrelevant. I don't blame any president for terrorists hating us. The terrorists will want to kill us no matter who is in charge. As long as we're not going to convert to Islam, they will want us dead.

Yes, but they were very minor compared to the attacks on 9-11, the only terrorist attack on our mainland. Plus, Bush had been in office for 9 months. The CIA warned him weeks before the attacks that al-Quaida terrorists might hijack US planes. The White House has already admitted that one. The FBI warned that a large number of Arab men were attending flight schools. He was warned that planes might be crashed into US landmarks. The list goes on and on.

Thats true, but invading Iraq and us being over in the middle east has opened a can of worms.

We had a different enemy under Reagan and H.W. Bush. The USSR was a more imminent threat. However, Clinton gave away nuclear plans in the year 2000. I don't think we were fighting another greater enemy then.

Are you kidding me? Terrorism was still a threat back then. What nuclear plans?

I get it. So when people blame Bush, it's only fair to take a good hard look at Clinton then, which might explain why the current administration is talking about Clinton.

No, they're (republicans in office) are just trying to point fingers.

James is a boy, dear. Despite the signature. I don't think he's actually blond, let alone a blond with big boobs.

Awww. I was getting the impression that he was a girl.
