I don't see how anyone can blame Clinton for 9/11. Clinton did know about Bin Laden & he was trying to stop al queda. A good book to read on this subject is "Against All Enemies: Inside America's War on Terror "(Paperback) by Dick Clarke.

Sorry Clinton fans, but it does all point back through those great years. The intell knew of Bin Ladin and his hopes of exporting his terror on US soil but ole Bills response was lob a cruise missile at a tent every time the polls would dip.
Also the 9/11 attack planning was put into motion after the 1993 attack failed to bring the towers down. Can't escape history, well I'm sure revisionist history is a comfort for you.

Do you think the terrorist funded, planned, and executed their attack inside of 9 months? No. They started planning well before hand -- Bush was in office for the execution, Clinton was in office when they were planning.
Blame who you want -- but the bottom line is Clinton refused Bin Laden when he was handed to him on a silver plate.

Clinton will still be blamed for things- 50 years from now. Alot of intellectually challenged people just couldn't stand the guy. He was just alittle too smart for them. Happily, the same can not be said for Mr. Bush, Jr.. He will be credited for getting us into the Iraq War for many, MANY decades into the future.-Because that's how long it's going to take us to pay for & clean up that mess. He makes Clinton look better EVERY day... :)

that's a very ignorant statement...the terrorists who plotted the attacks didn't initially think it up, plan it to perfection and, and execute it in a matter of 9 months. The work that led up to the attacks most likely took years to coordinate and make sure everything was ready, which would lead back to the Clinton Administration

This blaming clinton is getting real old! as far as the republicans are concerned that seemed to have a morality issue. We keep hearing about Monica thing and how horrible that was. But it ok to send young soldiers over to Iraq. Its ok to impose the death penalty! Its not ok for stem cell,they think thats immoral. and abortion is murder. It looks like bush thinks he god! He dictates what is moral!

Do you know what the difference is between Republicans and Democrats? Clinton was downsizing our military during his tenure because our national defense is not important to Democrats.

THAT'S SOME OLD REPUBLICAN SH@**!, TRYING TO MAKE THE GOOD OLD AMERICANS THINK THAT SOMEONE ELSE WAS PROBABLY RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR COUNTRY BEING BOMBED, WHEN THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT ONE OF OUR ENEMIES SAW THAT WE HAD A KNUCKLE HEAD AS PRESIDENT NOW SO THIS WAS THE BEST TIME TO STRIKE AND THEY DID JUST THAT.

9/11 was a inside job. I think they both knew about it. I think the bombing in Oklahoma, was the same kind of deal.
