    2 different lies. 1 has to do with peoples lives and the other has to do with somebody sleeping with someone. YOU CANT WIN THIS ARGUMENT. So dont try to. No I didnt beleive him when he said he didnt have sex with her

    Perhaps if Clinton spent less time with Monica and more time on national security, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now. So, Clinton's lie did have something to do with people's lives.

    I would rather have a President getting blow jobs while dealing with National Security, it will clear your head and allow you think clearer. I say all Presidents should get blow jobs when in office...get ready Laura

    Well, when that sex life puts your administion at risk, it kind of makes the focus on keeping yourself in the White House, as opposed to focusing on national security needs.

    Obviously the Bush Administration was focusing on the security needs of this country when they didn't have any meetings with Richard Clarke even after the 8/6/01 memo came out stating that Bin Laden was determined to attack the US using airplanes.

    No, and I am a big Clinton supporter. He shouldn't have lied. However, these lies are totally different. Like someone else said, this administration is so secretive and so dishonest that it is hard to literally believe anything they say.

    So back to the main topic of this post...

    1- Do you believe Flight 93 was shot down?
    2- Would you fault the government for shooting the plane down? (then covering it up and playing the political drum to the "let's roll")

    My answers
    1- Yes
    2- No, I wouldn't fault them at all. It's a tough decision to make, but the loss of life had that hit DC would have been too large to risk. I also believe that the passengers were going to fight the highjackers but didn't have enough time, I still don't know how it is to gain political gain though on the death of those citizens.


    your answer to number 1 is totally based on opinon that the government lied. which is what you want to believe. there is no proof it was shot down. so be it.

    me.

    1. no.
    2. no.

    I can see your poor attempt at humor. but its not funny. Clinton spent too much time with meetings on damage control then dealing with the growing threat to the United States

    C'mon, you can't believe that... do you really think that Clinton, the NSA, CIA, FBI, defense department, etc. really cared about his sex life or his impeachment to the point where they weren't focused on national security. I would think that the only people that really spent much time worrying about it were the white house council that was spending thier time dealing with the Starr mess.

    If Bush/Cheney can go to hundreds of fundraising events every year, and spend more time away from washington then the past few presidents combined, and still be so focused on national security like they claim, staying focused even if getting an occasional blow job isn't out of a question.

    yes absoulutely. many people's jobs depend on if clinton stayed in office or not. this was definately a distraction.

    Obviously the Bush Administration was focusing on the security needs of this country when they didn't have any meetings with Richard Clarke even after the 8/6/01 memo came out stating that Bin Laden was determined to attack the US using airplanes.


    or when an FBI budget official told the Joint Inquiry that counterterrorism was not a priority for Attorney General Ashcroft before September 11, and the FBI faced pressure to make cuts in counterterrorism to satisfy his other priorities.

    or when FBI officials sought to add hundreds more counterintelligence agents, they got shot down even as Ashcroft began, quietly, to take a privately chartered jet for his own security reasons.”

    or the White House plan to sharply cut an emergency F.B.I. request for $1.5 billion in extra counterterrorism money after the attacks.

    or in the months before 9/11, the U.S. Justice Department curtailed a highly classified program called "Catcher's Mitt" to monitor Al Qaeda suspects in the United States

    or official annual budget goals memo mentions 7 strategic goals, not one is related to anti terror efforts. The same document by Janet Reno the previous year was delivered a month earlier and put counter terrorism as one of two top priorities

    or upon taking office, the 2002 Bush budget proposed to slash more than half a billion dollars out of funding for counterterrorism at the Justice Department. In preparing the 2003 budget, the New York Times reported that the Bush White House "did not endorse F.B.I. requests for $58 million for 149 new counterterrorism field agents, 200 intelligence analysts and 54 additional translators" and "proposed a $65 million cut for the program that gives state and local counterterrorism grants." Newsweek noted the Administration "vetoed a request to divert $800 million from missile defense into counterterrorism

    or when the Bush Administration opposed Clinton Administration-backed efforts by the G-7 and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development that targeted countries with "loose banking regulations" being abused by terrorist financiers. Meanwhile, the Bush Administration provided "no funding for the new National Terrorist Asset Tracking Center

    or when Gen. Don Kerrick, who served in the Bush White House, sent a memo to the new Administration saying "We are going to be struck again" by al Qaeda, but he never heard back. He said terrorism was not "above the waterline. They were gambling nothing would happen

    that memo you talk about a month before the attacks. there is no way for any administration to find and stop it that fast.
  • Why the hell did Clinton get brought up in a thread debating a Flight 93 crash or it being shot down, and a possible cover-up?

    no one, even me, expected such an attack. and I think clinton and bush (upon taking office) under estimated the resolve of our enemys. you (not you personally) cant complain about how much we spend on defence and then bitch about making cuts in relative peaceful times.

    So, the ridiculous impeachment proceedings brought by the republican congress weren't a distraction?
