Were they not specifically looking for terrorist? Is having Bin Laden on a platter twice and turning it down something that the Clinton Administration should be given a pass on? I personally dont think so. I also do not know why the administration was so relaxed when it came to finding and prosecuting terrorist. While clearly you can't cast all the blame on the Clinton administration their faults and problems especially with reguards to terrorism were significant and played a major role in where we are today. | ||||

| Blame Clinton! Blame Clinton! That's our chant, hoorah!  I like how Bush gets a pass for not putting in enough troops to capture Osama after 9/11 when we're in Afghanistan, preferring to leave that job to an Afghani warlord with questionable loyalties instead of sending in American troops Hell, there was a request for 5-600 rangers by one of the Commandos that was out there, and it was DENIED! AFTER 9/11! But some situation that never really happened and Clinton gets all this shit over it..  | ||||

Or have you just taken guys like Alex Jones and Sean Hannity at their word? | ||||
