I know that this is a lttle tongue in cheek miles, but I'd submit that it'd be a toss up between Bush and Clark.

I know what Clarks rhetoric is, but his behavior re. Kosovo indicates that he might be even less inclined to being dedicated to a diplomatic solution than Bush.

He wanted to attack the Russians.

I remember that!

Hide your wives! He's another slick willy I hear...

He didn't want to attack the Russians. He wanted to close an airport to their planes.

Gen. Mike Jackson declined to follow that order because he feared that it might start a war with the alcoholic Yeltsin and his pro-Serb Russia.

I think that Clark's gamble would have paid off, though. The Romanians had already called Russias bluff by turning it's airfleet away from their airspace.

Good point. A Jewish President would prey upon the suspicions of even the most moderate Arab. But that's a reason for Al-Qaeda to support him, not to oppose him.

I still think Bin-Laden's boys will be voting Bush, though. A President prone to Dubya's sort of venal stupidity is a gift America's enemies get perhaps once a century.
 
After the stellar job of thwarting the 9/11 attacks, you can be certain that our enemies would love four more years of Bush.

Of the three choices given, I'd say Bushwhack. He's like a kid jacked up on Sugar Pops playing soldiers in his playroom.

What absolute nonsense.

Like, if Algore had been elected, we wouldn't have been attacked? Or do you mean he would have put on his cape and red shorts so he could fly up to New York and stop the attack?

Now you're catching on...

Let me get this straight...if a Democrat is President, Al Qaeda doesn't attack us.

OOOOOhhhhhhh, that wasn't a failed attack on the WTC back in '93 when Slick Willie was President. It was just firecrackers in a van.

Get real.

God, I hate it when people put words in my mouth.

Clinton had been in office for about a month or so when that happened.

By the way, those guys are in jail.

Clinton spent a lot of his time in office tracking Al Qaeda and thwarting terrorist attacks, that was his job you know. He also tried in vain to beef up the FBI's surveillance equipment, just to have it shot down by House Republicans who didn't consider it that necessary to keep an eye on terrorists.

The outgoing Clinton administration warned the incoming Bush administration of the terrorist threat by Al Qaeda that existed, and a detailed plan to wipe them out before they could spread. Had Gore been the next president, this plan would've gone into effect, and most likely September 11th would be just another beautiful fall morning.

The Bush administration chose to ignore the warnings of Al Qaeda, and the plan to take them out...

But we got Saddam, right?
 
And that's how the Clinton administration prevented the explosions in the African embassies, oh, that's right. He didn't.

What color is the sky in your world? If it were possible to thwart every terrorist, there would be no terrorism.

Ossam Bin Hidin' was obsessed with the WTC and will keep right on trying to get whatever he can.

I also didn't hear you turning cartwheels over thwarting an attack on Las Vegas. You'll just never know if there was a thwarted attack or not. Hindsight is easy.

Yup. We got Saddam. That shut down a terrorist training camp and another side benefit: Qadaffi has backed down from WMD development because he doesn't want to be next. Come to think of it, he's been pretty quiet ever since Reagan shot his ass out from under him.

Clinton blew up an aspirin factory.

I have an image of Algore after 9/11. McClean Stevenson as Col. Blake on M*A*S*H with the soot makeup and the toilet seat over his head after the latrine blew up with him in it.

Oh FawkinInbred knows that....he's just practicing the Goebbels Big Lie technique of repeating a lie often enough that people will accept it as truth.

But every time he posts that particular line of drivel, I respond:

"Grandstanding British general Sir Michael Jackson stood to lose face with his own personally brokered peace plan if Russians were stopped. He alllowed Russians in, Russians let Serbs with weapons cross checkpoints for two days. British had to hastily clamp down after the fact. http://www.usatoday.com/news/index/kosovo/koso884.htm "

(this is the third time in three months).

Clark would have a level of respect (and yes, fear) on the Arab street that Bush only dreams of.

It wasn't tongue in cheek at all.

Just tracking them, mind you,not actually taking bin Laden into custody on a couple different occasions when offered on a platter. But tracking's okay.

And thwarting. Sure, I'll buy that he might have tried to thwart them. He did a piss-poor job of it, as evidenced by the Embassy Bombings, the USS Cole, and the WTC bombings, but hey, he was thwarting.
 
So we're going to let the desires of our enemies guide us in choosing our president? Well...hmmmm...we won't negotiate with terrorists but we'll make their needs important enough to impact who our leaders should be......

When we adopt that attitude, I'd say they've won a major objective.

Clinton's failures don't justify Bush's. Why is it that Bushites always look to the past when their chief's actions are questioned?
