View Full Version : He Kept Us Safe
That is a talking point that was so perfect for Jeb until Trump came around and destroyed it. It's amazing how many truth bombs that Trump, of all people, is dropping on these debates. He's also telling the Iraq War like it is. It's so refreshing and yet it's coming from a man whose calling for a ban of Muslims and the deportation of 10+ million Mexicans.

Tryno spoke the truth, blaming dubya (and his entire NSA/FIA/CIA apparatues) for 9/11, which got Trump booed. Repugs HATE the truth.
Rubio then blamed Clinton for not killing OBL, but when Clinton did TRY to kill OBL, the Repugs accused him of trying to distract from blowjobs and impeachment.

You realize he is flat lying about him being against the Iraq war?

But Clinton also had a chance to take him from Sudan but refused allowing OBL to get to Afghanistan. Clinton did have plenty of chances to get OBL whether he was getting BJs or not.

Yeah Trump never came out publicly back then about the Iraq war. He may have been against it, but no one really knows for sure and he can't prove it.

He is saying he was publicly against it. Last night:
"I'm the only one on this stage that said, ‘Do not go into Iraq. Do not attack Iraq,’ " Trump said. "Nobody else on this stage said that. And I said it loud and strong. And I was in the private sector. I wasn't a politician, fortunately. But I said it, and I said it loud and clear, ‘You'll destabilize the Middle East.’ "
Pure fantasy.

I still don't understand what they mean when they say he kept us safe "after 9/11". Are they saying that since Dubya didn't let another 9/11 level attack happen after he already let 9/11 happen he kept us safe?
That's probably the worst definition of keeping America safe that I've ever seen.

It was the typical neocon party line back then which is why Rubio has been expressing more than anyone else since he's the biggest neocon running.

yep, that's exactly what they are saying.
At the time, their propaganda was that nobody could have stopped 9/11, excusing themselves.
Then we learned that there were warnings, "chatter" for months. The 9/11 commission found a list of things the Repugs could have done, but were too busy relaxing, celebrating, and counting theie $100Ms of tax windfall after they forced through a huge tax cut for the wealthy by reconciliation.
OBL was in Africa from 91 to 96, but I can't see anything other than US pressuring Sudan to expel him and AQ

This is also their response to the economic collapse that happened on Bush's watch ... "At least he kept us safe"... as if that's the standard for being a good president, all this shit happened, but hey, at least you're still alive.

"Hey, he might have let the biggest terrorist attack in American history happen, but he kept us safe because it didn't happen again!"
Meanwhile, Obama put the whole country at risk because four people at the Libyan embassy dieded! :cry
