   So Mac; what does this do to all the Nutbags on the Left, like “Professor” Kevin Barret, and his contemptible ilk, who have blamed Bush/Cheney/Halliburton personally for destroying the twin towers, using plasma thermite, drones, controlled demolitions, etc.?

   I guess, “fake but accurate” will rear it’s ugly head again!

   The truth will NOT be denied forever!:

   ‚ÄúTHE WHITE HOUSE SITUATION ROOM was buzzing. It was fall 1998 and the National Security Council (NSC) and the “intelligence community” were tracking the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden, the shadowy mastermind of terrorist attacks on American targets overseas. “They’ve successfully triangulated his location,” yelled a “Sit Room” watch stander. “We’ve got him.”

   Beneath the West Wing of the White House, behind a vaulted steel door, the Sit Room staff sprang into action. The watch officer notified National Security Advisor Sandy Berger, ‚ÄúSir, we’ve located bin Laden. We have a two-hour window to strike.‚Äù

   Characteristic of the Clinton administration, the weapons of choice would be Tomahawk missiles. No clandestine “snatch” by our Special Operations Forces. No penetrating bombers or high speed fighter aircraft flown by our Air Force and Navy forces. No risk of losing American lives.

   Berger ambled down the stairwell and entered the Sit Room. He picked up the phone at one of the busy controller consoles and called the president. Amazingly, President Clinton was not available. Berger tried again and again. Bin Laden was within striking distance. The window of opportunity was closing fast. The plan of attack was set and the Tomahawk crews were ready. For about an hour Berger couldn’t get the commander in chief on the line. Though the president was always accompanied by military aides and the Secret Service, he was somehow unavailable. Berger stalked the Sit Room, anxious and impatient.

   Finally, the president accepted Berger’s call. There was discussion, there were pauses and no decision. The president wanted to talk with his secretaries of defense and state. He wanted to study the issue further. Berger was forced to wait. The clock was ticking. The president eventually called back. He was still indecisive. He wanted more discussion. Berger alternated between phone calls and watching the clock.

   The NSC watch officer was convinced we had the right target. The intelligence sources were conclusive. The president, however, wanted a guaranteed hit or nothing at all.

   This time, it was nothing at all. We didn’t pull the trigger. We “studied” the issue until it was too late – the window of opportunity closed. Al-Qaeda’s spiritual and organizational leader slipped through the noose.

   This lost bin Laden hit typified the Clinton administration’s ambivalent, indecisive way of dealing with terrorism. Ideologically, the Clinton administration was committed to the idea that most terrorists were misunderstood, had legitimate grievances, and could be appeased, which is why such military action as the administration authorized was so halfhearted, and ineffective, and designed more for “show” than for honestly eliminating a threat.‚Äù

   [...] It never fails to happen that the 9-11 anniversary brings out all sorts of news and information regarding 9-11. Whodathunkit. Seems Al Jazeera is showing a video of Bin Laden meeting with the 9-11 hostages. While the lunatic fringe left will question the timing of this and see conspiracies everywhere, the fact is Bin Laden and Al Qaeda have PR needs too. They need exposure in the media and this is a good time of year to grab headlines. It is one of the random ironies of 9-11: it happened two months before the time of our national elections. It did not happen on an election year, but it echoes across every election year we have and just plays havoc with the Dems. Of course it never had to be this way. If the Dems had not taken up positions against the Patriot Act the sight of Bin Laden would not have people questioning the Democrats thought processes. If the Dems had not been giddy over the exposure of our anti-terrorism efforts (like the NSA listening in on terrorists planning attacks here) then there would be no oppotunity to put Bin Laden on political ads and ask America which side the left is on. If the Democrats hadn’t claimed Bush was hyping the war, their credibility wouldn’t be shattered everytime Bin Laden appears, reminding us all who really is the threat to America (and it ain’t Bush). Don’t even get me started with the whack-job conspiracy theorists. As Mac Ranger notes, the irony of Clintonistas screaming about a movie depicting their failure to get Bin Laden is just emphasizing the fact that Bin Laden and Mohammed Atta spent the Clinton years preparing for 9-11, and that 9-11 highjackers were in this country when Bush was sworn in. But it is the classic example of how the Dems stick their necks out for no reason and the natural course of events just hammer them. They will never learn that trying to beat Bush on national security means attacking our efforts to defend ourselves. Duh. [...]
