Take a look back to the beginning of WW2. What did the World do while Hitler was gaining power? The world just sat back and thought "Hey this guy will never gain a lot of power. He is crazy. Let's just sit back and he will go away." And if you remember, what happened? Germany took over all of Europe except for Britain. Then what did we have to do? We had to now fight an enemy whose power went unchecked, and threaten the entire free world.
Fast Forward to the late 20th century. Clinton is President. Once again the world is faced with a growing, dangerous threat known as terrorism. The world is sitting back and thinking " Hey terrorism is no big thing. If we sit back then maybe these radical Islamic groups will go away."
Fast forward to the 21st century. Looks like the beginnings of WW3. Terrorism has grown to out of control levels and seek the destruction of the modern world. But, when Bush actually goes to stop this threat like Franklin Delano Roosevelt did, Bush gets criticize.

So why are you blaming President Bush for terrorism since this has been a problem since the late 70s early 80s.

What do you mean mymadsky when you say Bush has overstepped his powers. Bush has done everything within the laws.

I'm glad to see that someone else understands how history ties into the events now. It isn't the fact that Hitler and bin Ladin can be compared that frightens me (though they can, and it does!), but the fact that people are too blind to understand that each and every one of our former presidents has had a hand in getting us where we are now.

I blame every administration back to Carter.
However, why is everyone blaming either Clinton or Dubya?
Let's stop the blame game and fix the problem, not make it worse.

Nobody blames Bush for terrorism...They blame him for using terrorism to illegally overstep his powers.

We sat back in the 90s because it was easy for Monica to do it in that position

It's about time someone else noticed this. I thought I was the only one!

That is gross simplification.
And, Listen, chap. Terrorism, compared to WWII, IS no big thing. Some of us seem to have really short memories.
