    Natural progression of a conversation. Somalia was within the context of Clinton's handling of Islamic terrorism. The brief version is we were in Somalia as humanitarian relief and a Somali warlord ambushed an Army unit and Clinton just pulled everyone out rather than retaliate.

    In comparison, we were attacked on 9/11 and Bush completely removed a terrorist organization from power in Afghanistan and currently has them hiding out in caves in Northern Pakistan.

    So in terms of success, I'd say President Bush has been rather more successful in handling terrorists than Clinton was.

    Depends on if there are more terrorist now or then. If there are more then he is not any more sucessfull than clinton.

    Did you think that through before you posted it?

    How many terrorists there were then compared to now is irrelevant. What IS relevant is how each President, respectively, handled the issue.

    No more terrorist under Bush than Clinton = Bush not dealing with it well. If it's a fight against terrorist you want to stop the terrorists not make more of them. If there is fewer terrorist under Bush than clinton then same thing, Bush would be doing the better job.

    Nope. BS is when a brand new poster enters saying, I'm not bothering to click on your link. Post the article here or I won't read it.

    Some advice: This kind of arrogance won't work here, and it won't work in "real life" either.

    Btw, is your new rainbow avatar just a pretty picture, or does it represent something?

    well....clinton did nothing and bush attacked two countries.....as for the relative number of terrorists.....there are probaly fewer now because bush has been killing them....

    What does that have to do with anything.

    That is a backwards-assed argument. At the most basic level, there are more people in the world now than there were 7-15 years ago.

    However, there is one less nation being run by a fundamentalist Islamic sect under Bush than there was under Clinton. That would be an entire country's terrorists ousted from power.

    Clinton DID blow up a tent with a cruise missile though ......
