I know it doesn't belong on this chart, but who's screamin about the 3000+ 9/11 deaths on his watch? How has he been made to pay for those?

It's clear that the Clinton Administration ignored Al Queda even after the attack on the US War Ship, attack on our troops in Africa and our embassies there. Its been documented (and ignored) that BJ Clinton could have taken out Osama Bin Laden but wouldn't do it. I would say the BJ Clinton Administration deserves more blame for 9/11 then the Bush Administration( who barely was in office before the attack

Finally, a President will be Impeached for 9/11!

Oh no, not George W(orst President Ever) Bush! George Bush "inherited" 9/11.

Anonymous, you are lying as usual. Clinton made numerous attempts to get Bin Laden, which were all viciously attacked by Republicans who claimed Bin Laden wasn't a threat and Clinton was only doing it to distract people from Monica. That view carried over into the Bush Administration, which refused to do anything about Bin Laden, despite being begged to deal with him by former Clinton staff members- resulting in 9-11.

As for the story about Clinton being able to take out Bin Laden, naturally, you have left out the details. Late in Clinton's term, Bin Laden was detected, on a hunting vacation with the ruling princes of Dubai. We could not bomb Bin Laden without killing the princes, creating a massive international incident and further complicating our relations in the Middle East, so Clinton passed on the attempt. And let us not forget that it was these very same princes who went on vacations with Bin Laden, to whom George W. Bush, a couple of years later, was willing to sell the concession for port security in the United States. Money was all that counted to the Bush Administration. They never gave a damn about our security, except insofar as it could be used as a tool to beat up on their opponents. Look at this nation's history in the last hundred years- Republicans start wars; Democrats win them.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination ...

It Can't Happen Here

Trump has made his repeated promise to deport 20,000,000 minorities and foreigners a central feature of his campaign.  What does Trump intend to do with them?  History provides the key. And what history? The history of Europe in the 1930s and 1940s, when another great power, seeking a cheap way to victimize a large part of its population to benefit the majority race, also started a program of mass "deportation" of minorities, in order to provide its majority race with more land, more money, more of everything, at the expense of the others.  There was a word for this: lebensraum, or "living space,"  the notion that the majority race deserved what it craved so much that it justified any abuse of those considered to be lesser humans.   Hitler proposed to "deport" Jews, Gypsies, Slavs and eventually all other non "Aryan" residents of the Third Reich.  The Nazis soon discovered that deportation was impossible; it was too expensive for Germany, and oth...
