While hillary tries to sell the \\\'duel presidency\\\' and often repeats just how wonderful \\\'those years\\\' were....and lets the voters know that IF they elect her sorry axx....then they can once again live in Camalot.
Well....I for one don\\\'t WANT to relive a time when a US president was unwilling to take action against our enemies. And will hillary do any differently? I don\\\'t believe we can EVER count on that....not while they\\\'re acting as \\\'co-Presidents\\\', as hillary uses to try and get more support. She knows she just can\\\'t do it alone. tsk tsk tsk
Here\\\'s a great book all should read to become informed on the foreign policy of bill clinton. The one that FAILED to do any thing about bin laden the EIGHT times he COULD have.....then 9-11.
Author reveals \\\'biggest unknown scandal of the Clinton years\\\'
A New York Times best-selling author has released a new book calling former president Bill Clinton\\\'s foreign policy scandalous.
Hear this Report:
[url]
The book by Thomas E. Woods, Jr. is called 33 Questions about American History You\\\'re Not Supposed to Ask. The publisher, Crown Forum, describes the book as \\\"a provocative look at the hidden truths about our nation\\\'s history -- the ones that have been buried because they\\\'re too politically incorrect to discuss.\\\"
Among the topics discussed in the book: The Indians did not save the Pilgrims from starvation by teaching them to grow corn. The \\\"Wild\\\" West was more peaceful and a lot safer than most modern cities. And the biggest scandal during the Clinton years did not involve a blue dress. Regarding the latter, Wood says despite the constant coverage of the Monica Lewinsky affair during the 1990s, the biggest unknown scandal of the Clinton presidency had to do with his foreign policy.
\\\"For instance, when Clinton intervened in the Balkans, his interventions were consistently on the side of the Bosnian Muslims to the point where it was just becoming laughable to the rest of the world,\\\" he says. \\\"I mean, the Bosnian Muslims would violate ceasefire agreements and Clinton would have absolutely no problem with it.\\\"
And Woods says Clinton\\\'s unwillingness to go after terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden was a foreign policy failure. He notes that Clinton\\\'s own head of the bin Laden unit, Michael Shoyer, suggests there were at least seven to eight occasions when the U.S. could have captured bin Laden during the Clinton administration -- but there was \\\"just no interest in doing it.\\\"
\\\"So you just have to wonder what on earth was going on. If there is any role at all for the U.S. military, surely it is this,\\\" exclaims Wood.
According to Woods, Clinton\\\'s foreign policy debacles were far more scandalous than his sordid personal life.

Bush Quotes about Bin Laden
A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY
by Karen
For your amusement and future reference, here's what Bush has said about bin Laden at various points in time, depending on how he was trying to spin things:
"The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him."
- G.W. Bush, 9/13/01
"I want justice...There's an old poster out West, as I recall, that said, 'Wanted: Dead or Alive,'"
- G.W. Bush, 9/17/01, UPI
"...Secondly, he is not escaping us. This is a guy, who, three months ago, was in control of a county [sic]. Now he's maybe in control of a cave. He's on the run. Listen, a while ago I said to the American people, our objective is more than bin Laden. But one of the things for certain is we're going to get him running and keep him running, and bring him to justice. And that's what's happening. He's on the run, if he's running at all. So we don't know whether he's in cave with the door shut, or a cave with the door open -- we just don't know...."
- Bush, in remarks in a Press Availablity with the Press Travel Pool,
The Prairie Chapel Ranch, Crawford TX, 12/28/01, as reported on
official White House site
"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

etexbill - It's just another liberal distortion of what actually took place.
As usual their press was HOUNDING President Bush over and over, asking the same question EACH and every time they had the opportunity to do so.
The statement he made, NOT the distortion above, was said out of total frustration that no matter WHAT subject he was speaking to the press about....they turned it back to that same question.
And of course, they took it totally out of the context he made it.....so it 'sounds' MUCH different than how it was explained by the President to them.
=======================
"So what.. Linda does not know how to spell DUAL or CAMELOT!"
LOL....I did NOT misspell; 'duel'. LOL bill and hillary are KNOWN for 'dueling' with one another all the time.
Even IF I had used the incorrect FORM of 'duel' it was NOT misspelled. LOL
And what's wrong with the way I spelled 'Camelot'?
From the online M/W dictionary
Camelot
One entry found.
Camelot
Main Entry: Cam·e·lot
Pronunciation: \ˈka-mə-ˌlät\
Function: noun
Date: 15th century
1 : the site of King Arthur's palace and court
2 : a time, place, or atmosphere of idyllic happiness

So I did, CC. Are typo's not allowed here either according to the anal ones?
I have admitted over and over again to being a terrible speller. Continuing to be so anal as to point out typing errors though....is really NOT on topic nor necessary. And I always love how your attention is ONLY focused on the spelling errors of the right....NEVER anyone on the left. So much bias on your part. lol
But hey, if it makes YOU feel better about YOURSELF - if it's something you NEED to do rather than discuss the topic issues....go for it. Doesn't bother me a bit....I get my points across quite well even with misspellings and typos. LOL
Maybe a class on 'how to relax' might be in order for you? Not to worry so much about the tiny things in life...and get on with the more important matters???? Not be expecting PERFECTION from others? lol Because you're NEVER going to find it...not even in yourself. And imo, those who judge others abilities have some insecurities about their own...just in different areas of their lives. Try and make yourself perfect FIRST...then come back and pretend you're our teacher here.

Linda, I must admit I am compulsive about spelling, though I don't usually go around correcting people. Hwahwa gave me such a good lead in, just couldn't help it. When I went to school in the dark ages, spelling and English in general were extremely important and taken very seriously. We had spelling rules and tricks to remember correct spelling drilled into our heads on a daily basis---Mr. Ben E. Fit, we screamed eeeee running through the cEmEtEry, i before e, except after c. I never got over it.

In the context of the OP the correct spelling is "dual".
If you combine linduh's bad spelling with her lack of logic and unreasoned posts it all adds up to a very uneducated personal history.
"Typo"?
No, she spelled puberty "puberity" twice in one post...that's not a typo.
