Camels,
cigars and our part-time president.
Have
you ever looked under the refrigerator or behind the stove? What do you see? After
the party is gone, dead roaches and just creepy nastiness is what's left. I believe
the same can be said about President Clinton's last three years in office.
I really don't want to give any blame to "Slick Willie" that he
does not deserve, but the evidence is coming out like roaches.
Two
days after the attack, President "Bubba" came out and said publicly
that he knew about Osama bin Laden and his group. On a nationally televised
interview with NBC anchor Tom Brokaw; Mr. Clinton spoke of bin
Laden as if he knew all about him and his troop before the attack. Of course
he should know about him, he is the President, the Commander in Chief of our armed
forces. In
1996 the government of Sudan told Clinton and his administration that they
will hand over bin Laden. President Clinton and his advisors told
the Sudan government, thanks, but no thanks. The administration felt they did
not have enough evidence to hold bin Laden even though, many in the intelligence
wing of government felt it was a mater of time before all the evidence was in.
Everything about the 1993 World Trade Center attack was pointing out to
bin Laden. The same can be said for many foiled attempts against America
and their allies. So
why did "Slick Willie" and his advisors did not take on
the offer from Sudan? According the FBI and CIA, bin Laden was their man.
The east African nation had offered to extradite him to his native Saudi Arabia
and even them, denied to capture him as well. Why would they do anything like
that? Is this some kind of intelligence brain fart? I
believe the US intelligence did not falter here. It was not their fault their
leaders felt it was more important to show interns their cigar collections than
to care about our national security. Clinton did not wanted to have a war
on his record as his legacy, so he shied away from any kind of international altercation.
Dick
Morris, a former Clinton advisor said recently that his boss was "our
part time President" in his last term in office.
He was too busy perhaps being Mrs. Clinton's campaign manager or helping
out his stiff vice president get elected. Maybe Clinton was too busy lying
under oath. Whatever it was, he was not paying attention to our national security.
Then
in 1998, and a couple blown US embassies later, it was important for the President
to then, do something about it. One most remember that "Bubba" did
not wanted a war on his record so he did the appropriate thing according Nancy
"Clueless" Soderberg, a former National Security Advisor.
He approved the launching of a couple of missiles to show off to his lady friends
that he was in charge. Of course the question is: in charge of what? To
his own admission, Clinton himself said that the covert operations and
attacks to try to get bin Laden were not successful. The military following
Mr. Clinton, hi on his own hemp or just plain incompetent, missed the targets
all together. A
page from the Carter administration comes to mind. Remember Iran,
1979! Back then the Ayatollah made us look like buffoons. "Bill's
1999 Adventure" was not an exception either. Instead of getting
bin Laden, a couple of innocent camels were killed and some ruins got destroyed.
A man who hides in a cave defeated the leading edge technology that we like so
much to talk about. This
was perhaps the last straw that broke the camel's back. (no camels were harmed
while writing this article) We showed bin Laden and his thugs how inept
we were under President Fleetwood Mac. If were not able to capture him
when he was to be handed on a silver platter, imagine how much bigger bin laden's
head got when we missiled his pets. Now
George W. Bush, the guy who most could not believe got elected, is doing
a formidable job. It's not springtime yet, but a house cleaning is in order
and more roaches will come out for sure. In the meantime, we will keep on paying
for the Clinton Legacy. Are you with OPP? Yeah, you know me!
Right!!!
