Too good to pass up

Remember how Chris Wallace accused Clinton of "not doing anything" to stop Bin Laden?

Well, thanks to the "waybackmachine" (archives) some liberals have found out exactly what the Freepers (free republic blogsite) had to say about Clinton's attempts to get Bin Laden all the way back to 1998.

Here are some of the more "choice" comments: (I've added bold for emphasis)

Wag The Dog ! Wag the Dog! We are bombing Afganhistan (sic)8/20

Last time it was Iraq, Now we are bombing Afghanistan and Sudan to deflect attention from Clinton's troubles

I think I heard Sudan is another target (CBS)-- did I hear correctly?
Important point: Islamic extremists are Islamic first, very tight knit. I grudgingly respect their unity. This could spill over to many other countries. Our only hope is that the Islamics believe our administration was righteous in what it did. This is a litmus test of Clinton's ability ot handle a diplomatic mess. PLEASE PRAY.

Clinton Orders Military Strikes
EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) -- President Clinton said today he had ordered U.S. armed forces to strike at ``terrorist facilities'' in Afghanistan and Sudan in retaliation for the embassy bombings in Africa.

Clinton said he ordered the attacks because ``we have compelling information they were planning additional terrorist acts.''

``Today we have struck back,'' the president declared.

The president said the U.S. struck a terrorist base in Afghanistan and a chemical weapons facility in Sudan.

``We have convincing evidence these groups played the key role in the embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania,'' Clinton said. ``Terrorists must have no doubt that in the face of their threat, America will protect its citizens.''

Clinton made his remarks before cutting short a family vacation on Martha's Vineyard to return to Washington.

This brash act by a brash child-man is a direct threat to the security of every citizen inside our own borders for the people against whom he acted are non-forgiving and have no fear of death.
And, make no mistake, they are here!!!!!!

By the time the helicopter gets back to D.C. we may well be witness to a reprise of 1814.
