Imagining a Triangulator-in-Chief: Hillary Rodham Clinton



Imagine that Sheik Abdul Rahman, the spiritual leader of those convicted of blowing up the World Trade Center in 1993, declared war on the United States and the Clinton administration ignored it completely. And, in fact, couldn't even take the time to visit the site that nearly turned into a tomb for thousands.


Imagine that war on the U.S. was declared by Osama Bin Laden in the nineties - and no one in the administration took it seriously.


Imagine the Cole, the Khobar Towers, the embassy attacks, Zarqawi at the Olympic Hospital under the protection of Uday Hussein, the Boeing 707 at Baghdad's Salman Pak used to train an unknown number of hijackers...


Imagine a deadly litany of failures on the part of an administration -- too busy reading public opinion polls and covering up various scandals -- to do anything about the rise of extremist terror.


Imagine you are at work bright and early on a sunny Tuesday in a high-rise building soaring above Manhattan. Around 9am, you hear a shocking *thud* sound that rattles your desk. And the power goes out.


As you stare past the picture of your wife and children sitting on your desk, thick, black smoke is rising in the sky, unfurling past your window.


Now imagine the very administration that blithely ignored years of warning signals returning to power.


As a country at war with the United States for three decades secures scores of nuclear weapons while funding global terror organizations and hosting Holocaust-denial conferences.


Imagine Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Manhattan vaporized in a single day. Imagine an era of true terror.


Imagine the ramifications of electing another triangulator-in-chief as President in the midst of this, the nuclear age of global terrorism.


Oven-baked good readin', just like Mama used to make:
