and now they are yelling that he didn't do enough?
Republicans said that attacking Osama was just a gesture to divert America's attention? Did they think Osama wasn't a threat worthy of attack?
how can you yell "he should've done more"... when you mocked his attempts when he did try originally?

rohannesi: you have no evidence for your accusations? the drones didn't know if it was Osama or not... there is little evidence that he was made an offer to get Osama?

practical... I can agree with that... but say the same with Bush... and Bush has about 2,500 more reasons to find him...

You, and he, are trying to re-write history. he had much more support for his military adventures than Bush did, even for Afghanistan.
Clinton simply did not have much credibility as a leader when the two military strikes he ever ordered were at the most dramatic moments of personal scandal. He was making America into a banana republic, a joke.
Also, it's interesting that many Democrats deflected attention from Clinton's non-action on Iraq by saying "well, Bush 41 didn't finish the job." It's always someone else's fault with Clinton.
I do not think Bush is perfect or Clinton the devil. But I'd prefer someone like Bush to defend our nation to someone like Clinton.
I know others disagree.

His attempts were mockable. He tossed two poorly aimed missiles in the general direction of Afghanistan, and we should award him the Congressional Medal of Honor?
This man refused to assassinate OBL when drones had him pinpointed. This man refused to apprehend OBL when Sudan offered him on a silver platter.
This man refused to address the 1993, 1996, 1998 and 2000 Al Qaeda terrorist attacks as anything but police matters.
This man did defend Muslims in Bosnia and brought Arafat to the mainland as a diplomat.
So c'mon, his will to fight terrorism legitimately is questionable at best!

Because he didn't make a full attempt.
He sent a few bombers over an area the day after his testimony.
Had he done it at ANY different time, OR followed through with ground troops, he wouldn't have suffered those accusations.
