Just received this as an email and thought I'd pass it on...

Subject: Remember

There is little to be said after you read this. It speaks for itself.

After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six and injured 1,000; President Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1998 bombing of U.S. embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors; Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

Maybe if Clinton had kept his promise, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington, D.C. that are now dead would be alive today.

And, now that Bush is taking action to bring these people to justice, we have opponents charging him with being a war monger...

AN INTERESTING QUESTION:

This question was raised on a Philly radio call-in show. Without casting stones, it is a legitimate question.

There are two men, both extremely wealthy. One develops relatively cheap software and gives billions of dollars to charity. The other sponsors terrorism.

That being the case, why was it that the Clinton Administration spent more money chasing down Bill Gates over the past eight years than Osama bin
Laden?

THINK ABOUT IT!

It is a strange turn of events. Hillary gets $8 Million for her forthcoming memoir. Bill gets about $12 Million for his memoir yet to be written.

This from two people who have spent the past 8 years being unable to recall anything about past events while under oath!

Sincerely,
Cmdr Hamilton McWhorter USN(ret)

P. S. Please forward this to as many people as you can! We don't want this woman to even THINK of
running for President.

Truth is.... Radical Islam has wanted this war for a long time. Over a year ago at band practice one of my guitar players and I discussing this (over a cigar of course) said..... "Bring It!"

The time has come to take out the trash.

We didn't ask for this but now we must mop the floor with 'em! We have a long road ahead, hope we can all weather the storm. Few of us really want war but like it or not, the world is and always has been a very cruel place.

My heart goes out to those who have paid and will pay the ultimate sacrifice, but ours IS a volunteer Army and I and my family are very thankful for them.

Remember 9/11

Very well thought out and the research was spot on, so what is the Democrat response? Ricky, any comments?

Did I miss something? I didn't hear that we had captured Bin Laden or Hussein... Yes we're fighting terrorism more than we ever have in the past, but we have not brought these two to justice yet.

Blaming all of those events on Clinton is similar to blaming the current economy on Bush. My opinion is that there just wasn't enough support in the US to attack those countries until 9/11 happened and woke the American public up similar to Pearl Harbor, unfortunately we didn't learn our lesson...

It's easy to point fingers and use simple association logic, but this conflict has been in the works for a long time and it is far from simple!! I just hope the net effect is to have a safer world in the future, but that's the idealist in me speaking...

Actually, Chris, I tend to agree with you! Shocked? I am too!

Charlie

PS I still think that there is a possibility that both of those characters are dead! I hope so anyway.

I always believed Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Iran are more of a terrorist threat then Saddam and Iraq. Those countries probably house and sponsor more extreme terrorists then Iraq. But I guess the only country we could of invaded was Iraq, and claim that we are liberating the people. I support Bush's fight on terrorist, but I do not support his decision to invade Iraq.

The Alamo was a time of great historical value and pride to American History! The fact that they held for as long as they did just helped to build the legacy of the American fighting man. I shudder to think what it must have been like to be there and look out and see the Mexican army covering the fields in front of them. I am sure this is not taught in American history today due to Political Correctness of the NEA.
