"curious comments about Jews?"
Please show me one time when I've been hateful or spiteful towards Jews. Please. I've (repeatedly) defended their right to exist in Israel, and have a great deal of respect for the Judeo-Christian community. So, once again, to paraphrase DC, "please spare me your bullshit."

The fact of the matter is that on August 6, 2001 a memo saying Bin Laden was going to use airplanes as weapons was ignored by the Bush White House. He was top busy clearing brush and condemning stem cell research in Crawford.
Oh, you mean the same sort of intelligence that lefties like you shat on in Colin Powell's indictment of Iraq? Double-standard much?
And again, before you start bitching about how Bush ignored what was going to happen on 9/11, try
reading . I know, facts are a strange and unusual concept to those on the left, but you may be surprised.

What says it all about Bush is that moronic look he had on his face right after he was told about the towers being hit. Here the USA was under attack and the "commander in chief" sat there looking more like Fredo after his father was shot than the leader of a superpower.
Even SB, whom I have had disagreements with in the past, realizes what a retarded statement you've got there. :rolleyes:
And Bush's face doesn't compare to Clinton's "O" face by any means, or Monica with her little blue dress stained with "biological evidence" for Ken Starr.
"Please spare us your bullshit."

The truth is, during the Clinton administration we were all enjoying a robust economy. I think that there are very few Americans who wanted to rock the boat and start a war back then. And as far as the cuts in DoD money, weren't many of those cuts due to the end of the Cold War?
The problem is that the Cold War was already ending with Reagan in office. Yet, the first Bush administrations cuts were simply trimming the fat - the Clinton cuts severely limited our intelligence capabilities (specifically human and covert ops), and simply added to the buereaucratic clusterfuck that made for zero useful communication between agencies and left us vulnerable to
9/11. Again, as I've said in the past, I don't hold Clinton single-handedly responsible for 9/11. But I think his policies and actions had repurcussions that would help take those towers down in September of 2001.

Exactly.
That's why I wondered why you selected that particular "factoid" to bring to our attention, instead of any of the thousands of others which were available.
It doesn't "please me" or not "please me". It just makes me curious.
I mean, if you shared a characteristic with a well known person - I dunno, let's say you had a Masters Degree in Crop Fertilization - and someone, in writing about that well known person, cited the fact, to the exclusion of all others (and that fact had notrhing whatsoever to do with the story in which the person was being described), that this well known person had a masters Degree in Crop Fertilization, mightn't you say....
"Hey....He has a Masters Degree in Crop Fertilization. So do I!
I wonder why the author chose to mention that fact." [/b][/quote]For some reason, this kind of reminds me of Willie Horton. Like, oh no, it's racism because a black guy committed murder, rape, and assault, and someone called him on it!
Perhaps I used a reference to Ms. Lewinsky's Jewish heritage because it as one of the more defining and well known characteristics used in describing her? I mean, I did mention she is an intern (well known) and that she blew the President (well known), don't see why the Jewish issue is such an...issue.
Oh well. Maybe Hillary had better taste when she was fooling around with a Catholic assistant to her husband, whom later committed suicide.
In addition to Willie Horton, also sounds like the exciting Gannett rule that they had to feature a minority in every story they had in their television news coverage.

As a practicing Roman Catholic, I have reverence for that day, I was just pointing out another irrelevant factoid that had been left out of the discussion.
While we are on the subject of trashing religions, I have seen some pretty horrible generalizations about Muslims from some posters (not from you DC) but I dont see much outrage when that happens.
