I think everyone needs to read this

Tell me again about how Clinton wanted to get Bin Laden? I don't think so.

As Patterson reveals in his New York Times bestseller Dereliction of Duty- the first missed opportunity occurred when Clinton was engaged in watching a golf tournament and became irritated when Patterson approached him. After Patterson'?s third attempt to get Clinton to return Sandy BergerÂ?s urgent phone calls, Clinton gave Patterson a cool response he would phone Berger on his way back to the White House. The defeated Berger knew that the opportunity was gone.

In another shocking account in the situation room of the White House, Berger was told by a military watch officer Â?Sir, weÂ?ve located bin Laden. We have a two-hour window to strike.? After Clinton did not return phone calls from Berger for over an hour, Clinton then wanted more time to study the situation. Dereliction of Duty reveals "?We ?'studied?' the issues until it was too late-the window of opportunity closed."?


So, as the Clintonistas rage and whine about the ABC documentary, just remember that Clinton was more interested in a golf tournament on TV than killing OBL.

Just so ya know.
