[div class="dcquote"][strong]Quote[/strong]The only thing I am VERY Thankful for is, *whoever* was responsible for the 9/11 attacks, waited until Mr. Clinton had packed up and was basically asked to leave. I couldnt imagine in a million years what AlGore would have done...then again, had he won the election 4 years ago, 9/11 probably wouldnt have happened. ... I have never seen so much hatred towards our leader in my life. [/div]I was wholeheartedly in agreement with your post until
"had he won the election 4 years ago, 9/11 probably wouldnt have happened." Are you saying if Gore would've been elected President, the terrorists would've stopped their training and planning? I thought preparations and planning for these attacks had been in the works long before 2000. What were the previous terrorist attacks in the Clinton era for? Please enlighten me as to your thinking?

KEY WORD *WHOEVER*
"long before 2000"...you bet. Known about by the government? who knows? avoidable during the Clinton era? totally. It is amazing how much information came "to light" as the pieces were sifted through. Too bad our country was too busy watching Clinton, instead of its borders/airports.
I am not saying that a terrorist attack wouldnt have happened in the U.S. or on U.S. soil, but for some reason (not to be discussed in this arena(I've seen how you folks play)) I do not believe what did go down on 9/11, would have gone down had AlGore been in the whitehouse. That is not to say that *something* wouldnt have happened to our nation, but I honestly believe that the terrorist strikes would not have unfolded the way they did. Who knows, with AlGore in office, the terrorists might have driven Volvo's into the forrests of Washington State, built a compund, and armed spotted owls with anthrax granades, and trained to fly over heavily populated areas. its just that these *terrorists* knew of Bush's ability to do as he sais he will do. they went right for the heart. We all felt it. but the whole thing was "known" about months prior, even years prior. How? When? Where?-maybe a mystery...but WHAT?...that was known.
I am a total 'anti-media' thanks to what has become a circus and the only acts being performed are those of tragedy, death, crime, and loss. The day the media shows us happiness, wealth, crime-free neighborhoods, and peace-loving patriots, I will begin to look. Until then, I refuse to let my brain become media-jell-o.
