Rate Bush as president (scale 1-10)

[DESTRO_91]

You area showing your age and your ignorance. There fore I had no reason to read any further than this.

No attacks under Clinton? Are you serious?

What about the '93 WTC bombing?
What about the '95 car bomb in Riyadh?
What about the '96 bombing of the Khubar Towers?
What about the '98 bombing of Embassies in Africa?
What about the '98 rocketing of the Embassy in Beruit?
What about the '00 bombing of the Cole?

Funny how this lists ends with 9/11.

Notice I said on our own soil. I did mention WTC bombing. Granted US embassies are considered our soil, but they are not the continental US.

so you have prov that Bush and Clinton had the same number of attacks on our soil during their presidency, and Bush had 5 less worldwide during his presidency, but Clinton's rapport with other countries kept us safer. Where do you get this stuff.

Also, look what you said again,

Clinton had a better rapport with the world, hence no attacks, our enemies got bold enough to attack us on our own soil after bush was in office.

That quote says that we never got attacked under Clinton, but in less than 9 months Bush managed empower the world's terrorists and led to an attack on our soil.
The actual truth of the matter is that Clintons inaction after repeated attacks, and his severe drawdown of US intelligence capabilities and military led to 9/11. Judging by the lack of attacks in the last 7 years I think it would be safe to say that if Clinton had the balls to fight terrorism back in '93, 9/11 would have never happened.
