36. Why didn't teh previous president give HIS predecessor credit for 6 years with no attacks?
The last terrorist attack on the homeland during Clinton's administration occured on April 19, 1995.

OOPS, I forgot, homegrown terrorism doesn't count or else clinic bombings would count.

So the last terrorist attack on the homeland during Clinton's tenure occurred on February 26, 1993, so that's nearly eight years without a foreign terrorist attack on the homeland.

And he busted up a terrorist attack that would ahve happened new years eve, 1999.
