WRITTEN BY A FRIEND OF MINE CHECK IT OUT. LETS PLAY NICE

"I gave the terrorists a second chance!"
You will never hear Bill Clinton say these words, but this whole week you will hear and read the best quote of the 2004 DNC Convention opening night, "strength and wisdom are not opposing values", spoken by a man who showed neither for eight years in the White House. The implication, of course, is that George W. Bush has shown strength without wisdom. Fill in your own favorite liberal mantra: "illegal war", "unilateral action", "mislead the American people" and the most baffling from none other than Al Gore, "misconceived foreign adventure", all of which have the sole purpose of convincing the American people that the Iraq war was a big, unnecessary mistake. After all, Sadam was contained and he wasn't a serious threat to anybody - oh, wait, not even the Democrats believed that as far back as 1998 when they made regime change in Iraq the official policy of the U.S. But you see, for liberals wisdom is only the ability to recognize a threat, which must be analyzed, studied, investigated, because as long as no action is taken there is no risk of looking foolish. And as for strength, it is to be exercised only when it weakens our national security. Just ask Jamie Gorelik how strong was the wall she erected between our intelligence agencies. I know the Cold War was over, the Soviet Union was not a threat anymore, but former President Clinton recognized the terror threat to our country back in 1993 when the terrorists tried to blow up the WTC Towers. Just go back and read his promises to punish those who perpetrated the crime. The only problem was that the terrorists had not intended to commit a crime, they had intended to commit mass murder by the tens of thousands, by blowing up one trade tower and toppling it against the other one thus bringing both down within seconds not the 20 to 30 minutes it took the towers to fall down in 2001. NO ONE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN OUT ALIVE. They did not succeed and that was enough for Bill Clinton to do nothing about it, effectively giving the terrorists a second chance.
It's funny how the media has selective amnesia. When the Berlin wall came down it was the policies implemented by Harry Truman fifty years earlier that finally worked, but when the Towers fell it was "What did Bush know and when did he know it?" not what did Clinton know, because that question had an answer. He knew the terrorists wanted to bring down the Towers back in 1993 and thanks to Bill's policies and wisdom they did, on 9/11. And this is what we should never forget.
