He just twisted arguements after we quit helping him push Russian out of Afghanistan.

Bin Ladens home country is Saudi Arabia, and no he did not sought refuge in saudi arabia as he was expelled from there. It's the otherway around.

My mistake. He was kicked out of his home country of Saudi Arabia and he sought refuge in Sudan. He did it because he came back from Afghan and wanted the Saudi's to use his army but they chose america instead. He was upset at it. There has been no major terrorist attack on america since we started taking name and chasing people down. Also it was Clinton that ordered the assassination of Bin Laden which failed and led him to wanting to attack the US.

Clinton ordered the assasination AFTER the 1998 US embassy bombings. Before these bombings Bin Laden had co signed a "fatwa" which stated that Americans and their allies civilians and military are to be killed. Following this Fatwa the US Embassy bombings took place , which lead to the assasination attempt. Clintons assasination attempt was not the reason for him to want to attack the US.

The republicans stole the election. Kerry was not my first choice but anyone was better than Bush.

Default 3 Brazilian solders were killed in Iraq

Donald Rumsfeld briefed the President this morning. He told Bush that 3
Brazilian solders were killed in Iraq. To everyone's amazement, all the
color drained from Bush's face, then he collapsed onto his desk, head in
hands, visibly shaken, almost in tears.

Finally, he composed himself and asked the Defense Secretary, "just
exactly how many is a brazilian?"

Oh now Mike, you really don't mean that, do you?

BJ's are far more criminal than anything Bush has done, especially if you aren't getting any. I say that's a better reason to hang or impeach a man, than corruption and lies!

I stopped reading your post when you said the NY times and the LA times are the most incorrect papers there are. Gotta love that

The NY times is the most far left paper in Amarica that is widely circulated. Countless retractions are always being made by them as well as accusations with no foundings. They were posting information on Jon Bennet Ramsey, the girl that was abducted in the Bahamas, and other big issues that later had to be retracted. The Wallstreet journal slammed the NY Times because of how many errors and leftish publications they make. The paper has flat out slandered people. A newspaper is to report the news, not fabricate it or toss any story they can find out to the public without checking it's sources.

You guys want to say our government isn't doing enough to stop terrorist or doing the right thing then you tout the paper that exposed a LEGAL monitoring program the goverment used to watch where terrorist got their money from and how it was being spent. Which greatly crippled our ability to track terrorist. The NY and LA times are the worst papers out there. If you want accuracy read the Wallstreet Journal. I guess I'm just against any paper voicing its opinion and not the news. I hate reading something then later on finding out it was incorrect. I feel fooled when it happens. I've found teh WS Journal hasn't led me wrong near as much. Plus the NY and LA times do things I don't agree with. They posted statements on how ID's being required to vote are a horrible thing when they would be given free tot he people by the govn't. Despite 81% of actual americans being in support of the idea they both hate it because they are far left papers and don't want to lose the vote of possible illegals which always support the Dems.

No mass-media outlets should be considered to be anything more than sensationalized BS. Left or right, they all exist for one thing. That is to make profits. They all do this by appealing to certain groups and writing to appease their angle and agenda.

Yea and your knowledge of history (the roots of modern terrorism) that you tried to preach here was full of errors. so u were saying????
O and btw, the quote that I used, the source of that information is originally from The State Department itself. You may want to look that up for urself. While you're at it learn your history before you post incorrect statements, otherwise nothing you say is taken seriously. It's Kinda like how you perceive the NY Times.
