Matt Your presumption is that there will not be anymore 9/11 like attacks. Your presumption is wrong. My presumption is that there would be more attacks under an administration with Clinton-like policies than under one with Bush-like policies. Since the Twin Towers and Pentagon attacks were conceived, planned and partially executed (the flight training) under Clinton, I count a good portion of that against him as well. I never suggested that we'd be free of attacks. I don't think that is likely anytime soon. Matt |

We have had as many attacks on US soil during the first 4 years of Bush Presidency as we had in the entire 8 years that Clinton was in office. Why would that lead you to believe that Clinton-like policies would produce MORE attacks than Bush's? |

![]() "Mike V." wrote in message news:ybupd.146104$HA.7378@attbi_s01... Fiscal responsibility? Excuse me while I laugh my ass off... such words are a total riot coming from a so-called conservative. Conservatives/Republicans/Bush are the very last people on this planet who could talk about fiscal responsibility. Conservatives drove us into ever increasing federal debt, oil prices through the roof, the weakest dollar ever, growth in federal spending. And you want to talk about taking responsibility. Yeah, right... Then how is it we managed to get so far in debt with liberals in power? |
