The MSM has me so confused on who to blame! but is very clear on who NOT to blame (wink)

Ann Coulter seems to be blaming Reagan. Oh and you have to LOVE the Grenada comment.

Coulter stated: "We shoot a few ... rockets into Syria as we're pulling out of Beirut, after Hezbollah kills 241 of our Marines in 1983. We always have a little skirmish with them and then pull out again. Well, OK. You keep doing that and after 30 years, you get 9-11." Coulter's assertion came less than one week after she credited former President Ronald Reagan, in a July 26 column, with achieving "an amazing, historic pause in Muslim extremists' relentless war on America" between 1988 and 1993, after he "won the Cold War."

NOTE - in this column from 2 1/2 years ago Ann blames the Democrats in Congress (Republicans were the majority in the Senate).


NOTE- Ann has done this before. Ignoring the ELEVEN Muslim extremeist terrorist attacks during the Reagan administration and giving him credit for the ZERO attacks during Poppa Bush's administration.

(On Cuba) COULTER: That's what I've heard. That's why I'm not looking at this with bright prospects, though, I mean, it's a tiny little tin pot dictatorship. Why not make this George Bush's Grenada? How about taking this guy out?


Matthews: "We know" President Clinton "didn't stop" 9-11

MATTHEWS: Who was president from '93 to 2001? Who was president of the United States?

GREEN: You know the answer.

MATTHEWS: Bill Clinton. Do you think he did a good job of stopping a second attack on the World Trade Center when he was president for eight years?

GREEN: We can't know whether he stopped it. Richard Clarke --

MATTHEWS: We know he didn't stop it.
