Clinton-hatred is more potent than National Security
That is the conclusion that I have come to , after seeing the "pilfered tape".. This tape was not "accidentally" leaked at this juncture. It was a calculated effort to "blame Clinton", yet again....and to neutralize any upcoming support of Kerry..

This crew has their "press-puppies" trained well, and they know that the only questions that BC would get, would be aboout the drone, and why he did not "go get Osama" , and then they would launch into the other "you had a chance in 1998"...and "Sudan wanted to give him to you" stuff.. His supportive comments about Kerry would take a backseat to any of the Osama stuff..

The fact that they are this desperate..really worries me..

The release of top-secret CIA film is no minor matter, and they are apparently so desperate to "win" , that there are no risks that they will not take..

3. MSNBC aired it last night on Keith Olberman's show
It is very good quality video taken by a drone..in late 2000..Shows "binLaden" at his training camp with many AlQaeda .. The claim is that "There he WAS, and Clinton did not get him". Other comments were.. "Election season..effect on Gore's run for office"..etc etc..

No one mentioned last night that back then the drones were UNARMED..and that by the time missiles could have been fired, he would have likeley moved anyway, but the implication was there.. "Clinton "could have" gotten him"..

No one mentioned either, that Clinton's presidency had been so crippled by then , that he was never going to get ANY support from congress.. They would have just chanted.."wag the dog"..

These conservatives make me so ill..

2. They are imploding
This tape does them no good. The depths to which this bunch will sink is now nothing more than a mundane story. What a legacy.

5. The Bush M.O.
When sagging in the polls, bring out the spectre of Bim Laden and the "evil doers".

When really, really sagging in the polls bring out the spectre of the most unholy person in the world President Clinton and his extremely evil penis.

After all the "Clenis" is the Anti-Christ. It is the destroyer of worlds.

6. I wish I could agree with you
I'm feeling pretty pessimistic today. Kerry has not been hitting back very aggressively on these issues. I don't know what he has to do to get coverage with this news bunch.

BTW, that is now TWO treasonous acts that compromise national security by the * Administration. Maybe it is time for somebody to lock the gates to the White House from the OUTSIDE.

Let's keep a list:
Valerie Plame
CIA video

4. I think it was a preemptive move in anticipation of Clarke's book.

8. That could be part of it, but Clark might not have been privy
to that kind of information, but Clinton was.. It's just the old Clinton-hatred, rearing its ugly head..

I really wish that Clinton would come out and say soomething like this:

You know what we did not get bin Laden?? Because these conservative ASSHOLES were so pissed off that their boy George One, did not get his obligatory second term, that they spent 70 MILLION dollars of YOUR Tax money to see to it that nothing I did as president would be effective..

7. I have been talking to some of my more conservative friends.
They are well aware of the fact that there was a problem with the 2000 elections, and do not like B* one little bit. And these are people who voted for Reagan TWICE. So the pub spin machine is faltering, and they are grasping at some serious straws. Remember these are the neo's that are pulling the Clinton hatred, not the true conservatives. When cornered, they go for the hate. Hate is the glue that holds the neo-conservatives together.

9. Well, according to ABC, Bush missed at least 3 chances . . .
to kill Osama using the drones after they were armed.

11. How often will we hear that??
The people who "need" to hear it, have little or no cognitive skills.. They only hear "Clinton", and they start to salivate :(
