As someone who reads the papers, unlike your President, you know DAMN well that the outgoing Clinton team stressed to the incoming team that Osama should be treated as the HIGHEST priority regarding national security, and you know damn well that the Bushies just weren't interested.
Osama would NEVER have been able to pull off 9-11 with Clinton in office, they had to wait for a guy like Bush. You also know that with the faux patriotic fervor sweeping the nation, fomented by demagogues on the right, it would have been political suicide to vote against the Patriot Act at that time. After all, the Congress and the nation was forced to trust the bad intelligence that we now know was manufactured by the Bush administration to justify the Iraq invasion.
Can you say 'Yellowcake' and 'Valerie Plame'? Yes, I thought you could.

First you state that members of both parties don't participate in this kind of telescopic blind, can't see both sides of the story thinking and then you go prove that they do!
Dig, I hate to say this but your reply on any political issue is 100% predictable. I knew almost exactly what your response would be. You know why? Because there are valid reasons both for and against nearly any point of view and as a Democrat, you present the Democratic side without ever saying "however", "but", or "here's something which might contradict what I am saying" though. You don't care about what is. You only care to show that Democrats are right 100% of the time and Republicans, 0. Oooh, the blame game.
I paint both sides with the same brush because they are. What? You think human nature doesn't apply to half of Amreicans?
