Friends, read it for yourself and decide if McCarthy is the political hack, or if it's Thom. Or, better yet, decide for yourself if Clinton deserves blame (*gasp*) and how much.

Excerpt: "Throughout the eight years of the Clinton administration, as militant Islam's jihad against America escalated, the federal courts became the linchpin of counterterror strategy. This began understandably enough. The 1993 WTC bombing was viewed as a domestic crime. Although, years later, investigators and journalists would link the bombing to al Qaeda, and al Qaeda in turn to prior terrorist acts against the U.S., at the time not much was known about Osama bin Laden, his network, and his national support systems in Afghanistan and Sudan. No one credibly could fault President Clinton for handling the matter as a court case or for not responding militarily."

Cliff's Notes get you a "C" and you're never actually exposed to the primary source information that might inform, educate and/or influence you.

Hmmm.... I guess if the Cliff's Notes "style" is someone's modus operandi, it would explain a lot of the "analysis" we habitually get from some hereon.
