Bill Clinton: "I could have killed" Osama bin Laden.[W:351]

Obama has killed 2400 civilians, half of which are women and children and you celebrate that.

Thats kinda the hypocrisy thing.

Oh, we are going that route. Then Bush murdered well over 100,000 Iraqi civilians in his pointless invasion that actually made us less safe. You can't win, only change the subject.

Yes, in that link, he discusses the need to be Commander in Chief, not just president. One way or another, come hell or high water, either one, the Bush administration would have its war with Iraq, had 9/11 attacks never happened.

He sure lied about it in the campaign though. He said he would avoid "foreign entanglements" many many times while on the stump.

Actually the feds were there to arrest Koresh. If they had arrested him alone, unarmed, while out jogging, it all would have gone much more smoothly, dont you think? Cuz...80 women and children on US soil...is that 'cautious'?

They were dead by their own hands, many shot themselves before the fire. You can't fix stupid.

Let me clear this up for you. They didn't die in "Bush's invasion to get Saddam." They died as brave defenders of freedom, doing what they wanted to do to defend this country and the people that they fought with.

Yes, so is treating the brave sacrifice that they made to protect our nation as nothing more than being thrown to their deaths by the President is offensive. You (inc the Democrats) use their deaths for political gain, and that, is truly sickening.

Whose freedom were they defending? Certainly not ours. They died for nothing and that is truly sickening and 100% the fault of the Commander in Chief.

Sure he did. Said so right on that DailyKos article. No wait....

Why does it matter that it's DK? Marcos Mulsitos is about as partisan and vile as any radical liberal/progressive I've read. There is almost zero credibility flowing from that group of mind numb robots.

Sorry, that's my experience after getting daily updates from Kos for years. Always good to see what the propaganda machine on the radical left is teaching it's enraptured followers.

I would hold him accountable for not doing his job or allowing another attack on America on his watch. Disrupting the chain of command is a good way of preventing more attacks. I think that is your problem with drones...they work and are working. It makes Bush's "endless war" seem outdated and pointless ,not to mention costly in blood AND treasure.

You seem to miss two points, one my criticisms of Obama's administration should clue you that I'm no liberal, and two, the comments are Mickey Herskowitz's, not the Kos! Mickey is a Jewish author, Houston Chronicle journalist and a long time Bush family friend.

Bush broke everything he touched in the private sector, and he broke the US Debt Clock along with the economy.

G.W. Bush didn't blame anyone. He's from the private sector where the rule is, when there's a problem, fix it don't look for someone to blame instead.

Your support of the misguided adventure in Iraq has clouded your judgement. Just as Bush's lust for war with Iraq clouded his judgement when viewing the tell tale warnings of AQ's imminent attack prior to 9/11.

Well, without going off on a tangent about the Iraq war, suffice to say I support our action and getting rid of Saddam. And, I feel your judgement is clouded by the lies told by the left.
 
Re: Bill Clinton: "I could have killed" Osama bin Laden.

Montecresto said:
That's hilarious!!!! Your back must be aching bending into a pretzel to defend Bush's criminal activity. Puts you squarely into blame with him. You should try to find the press conference and listen to your right wing buddy's do a hatchet job on that criminal/Cheney program. Take a Valium first.

Yes, so funny. Try and throw a fact in there somewhere for support. Now that's funny.

You keep putting me in the left and the left keeps putting me on the right, lol. Guess that's what happens to the non partisan who isn't afraid to acknowledge error from either party.

There's plenty of error on both sides, but the big error right now is in the White House. Of course, the left never makes an error, because it's the intent that counts.

There most certainly IS error on the left, and the left is in the WH now, so yes, although its not all error, anymore than it was all error when the GOP was in the WH. The difference between you and I and myself and all partisans is that I'll point it out where I see whether its on the left or right.

The error in the White House just said again today that he will act if Congress doesn't. Now, anyone who knows anything knows that the President and Congress don't share powers, they are separate. I'd like to see someone, anyone, on the left come out and state the obvious, that Obama is violating the Constitution. Those are powers that a dictator has, not a President.

Didn't the Supreme Court say something like that?

And Obama like your typical lefty thought that by throwing money at a problem it will fix it.

>" How much in deficit spending did Bush spend on average per day during his presidency? It’s pretty easy to figure out: $607 billion/365 days = $1.66 billion per day. That’s a lot of spending, Georgie. Shame on you!

But compared to Obama’s $5 BILLION of deficit spending per day? Obama spent well over three times more per day every single day than did Bush.

If you want to argue that Bush looks bad, fine. Bush looks bad. But Obama looks positively vile. "<

It actually a NPR report. -> Who Spent More? Average Bush Vs. Average Obama Spending Per Day Proves Obama Most Reckless And Irresponsible EVER | Start Thinking Right

Yeah, I'm on the road right now but was listening to POTUS on satellite radio, both of them were HUGELY critical of Bush's torture program, McCain even said, when you torture people, they just tell you what you want to hear so you'll stop. And he added, any small amount of solid info we got wasn't worth violating the Geneva Convention and loosing global credibility as we did!!

I can see Sen. McCain being against torture as a former POW. Not sure about the more hawkish Sen. Lindsey Graham though despite his military reserve status.

Actually, I just looked these two guys up, they both have 100% credibility, on THIS issue, McCain for sponsoring a bill that required following the army's field guide to interrogation techniques, and Graham for sponsoring it.
