Oh...wait...he imported more of his buddies from 3rd world Muslim countries that commit these acts. I knew there had to be something that he did! Oh, and labeled vets, terrorists, don't forget that one.

Nobody gave Bush a pass? Are you ****ing kidding me?? It doesn't matter what he did afterwards, that doesn't answer the question. And what exactly was Obama supposed to have done afterwards?

I don't blame Clinton for the 1993 WTC bombing:

Quote:
On February 26, 1993, a truck bomb was detonated below the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. The 1,336 pounds (606 kg) urea nitrate–hydrogen gas enhanced device was intended to send the North Tower (Tower 1) crashing into the South Tower (Tower 2), bringing both towers down and killing tens of thousands of people. It failed to do so but killed six people and injured more than a thousand.

The attack was planned by a group of terrorists including Ramzi Yousef, Mahmud Abouhalima, Mohammad Salameh, Nidal A. Ayyad, Abdul Rahman Yasin and Ahmed Ajaj. They received financing from Khaled Sheikh Mohammed...

OP's BS thread should be closed because of his ignorance.

9-11 WAS a terrorist attack.

How about that Hasan dude who murdered our soldiers in Texas? How about the Boston bombing? They've been others but, those 2 terrorist attacks def happened under Obama.

The attempted Times square bombing back in 2010. If the terrorist successfully built the bomb, there would've been some casualties. Thankfully, the bomb was a dud.

Name one terrorist attack inside the United States under St Reagan (I'll pause here so you can bow your heads in reverence), in which Americans died, that you hold him as responsible as you hold Clinton or Obama for attacks that occurred when they were president.
Reagan getting shot WAS a "terrorist attack" IMHO.

the strange part about this thead is on "blame" as if that matters or has matterd.

as for the two terrorist attacks you name here, Mr. Obama has not been blamed for the attacks by "bush defenders" whatever that is...

rather conservatives have been vocal about the fact that Mr. Obama wont call these attacks "terrorist attacks".

the boston thing was "lone wolf" the Texas attack was "work place violence" according to Mr. Obama.

so the weird thing about this is that "blame" has never been the issue.

I still have not figured out what the OP is trying to suggest here.

There's nothing in there saying anybody gave Obama any kind of pass
I honestly don't think you understand what you typed. Your OP says exactly what you say it doesn't say.
