Blaming Clinton

All of this stuff about blaming Clinton for 9/11 is so much nonsense and I do hope that all of those who spout these lies come to regret them someday. That being said there is one huge mistake Clinton made which had, in my opinion, a very pernicious influence on the unfolding of the events of 9/11 and the subsequent glorious war on Iraq. Bill Clinton hired George Tenet in 1997. Clinton wasn't powerful enough to put Anthony Lake in the position and capitulated to the Republicans in Congress by naming Tenet to the post. At a time when our nation deserved a Director of Central Intelligence with skill and the power of leadership we got a political hack. One of my fondest hopes is that George Tenet sleeps fitfully out of guilt over his Presidential Medal of Freedom. But just as that is true I hope Bill Clinton shares in that guilt.

No Dearth of Arrogance

October 11, 2000 Presidential Debate:

BUSH: Well, I think they ought to look at us as a country that understands freedom where it doesn't matter who you are or how you're raised or where you're from, that you can succeed. I don't think they'll look at us with envy. It really depends upon how our nation conducts itself in foreign policy. If we're an arrogant nation, they'll resent us. If we're a humble nation, but strong, they'll welcome us. And it's -- our nation stands alone right now in the world in terms of power, and that's why we have to be humble. And yet project strength in a way that promotes freedom. So I don't think they ought to look at us in any way other than what we are. We're a freedom-loving nation and if we're an arrogant nation they'll view us that way, but if we're a humble nation they'll respect us.
