When it was Bush that ignored all 9/11 warnings...
Ignored CIA and his own father that invading Iraq would cause a quagmire....
Ignored and fired the HUD regulator that warned him of the financial crisis....Why do Republicans blame Clinton for 9/11, Iraq %26amp; Financial Crisis?
Clinton had a chance to get Bin laden %26amp; didn't.
Pussy-footed around Saddaam for his 8 years.
And reinvigorated the Community Reinvestment Act of Carter's that led to the subprime crisis.
Because actually all of these events were also under Clinton's watch.Why do Republicans blame Clinton for 9/11, Iraq %26amp; Financial Crisis?
Clinton had an attack on the world trade center, still did nothing. Never increased security in any way. Bush hadn't even been in office but 8 months when it happened.
clinton passed two laws critical of the mess we are in.the community reinvestment act and the elimination of regulation on the market with the glass/stegall act. the iraq war is a success.Why do Republicans blame Clinton for 9/11, Iraq %26amp; Financial Crisis?
Because many terrorist attacks occurred on his watch without any response, Clinton gutted our intelligence capabilities and put up walls between agencies to prevent communication. By encouraging loans to people that could not afford them he helped bring on the financial crises we face now. In his defense he had a lot to worry about, like getting caught by Hillary with Monica.
Clinton had Bin Laden and let him go. He also subscribed to the sitting down and talking method and it got people killed. Six attacks in 8 years. Clinton had the memo about 9-11 but ignored it. He had cut defense spending so we were unprepared to deal with the attack. If he had not closed the fighter response station, then not nearly so many would have died. Bush had no time to revamp in that short time but he wasn't even briefed about the closure.
Clinton wanted the banks to give mortgages to people who couldn't afford them. Out of the horse's mouth "Let them do what they want."
Bush and Gore rightly decided not to murder Bin Ladan, since at that time 911 had not happened and connections to the USS Cole bombing were not that clear.
But they passed on the entire dossier to Bush who did absolutely nothing about it for NINE MONTHS!!! And that was after the CIA told him an attack on buildings with airplanes was being planned, and the instructors at Embry-Riddle in Florida were begging the FBI to investigate these guys who wanted to learn how to take off in jumbo jets but not to land!
Like others have said, many terrorist activities happened under his watch and instead of going after and doing something.....
He did nothing....whether it's the "peace at any price" mindset or he simply didn't care, I don't know, but he set the stage for a lot of the mess we're in now.
Jihadists look at him as the perfect weakling, second only to BO.
A CNN reporter had no trouble finding and interviewing Bin Laden.
Clinton and Bush could both easily have found him, but he was more useful to both, especially Bush, allegedly alive and at large. as a scary monster to scare the children with.
It's a dark and unwholesome world.
That's all Republicans do.
