HILLARY CLINTON IN NO POSITION TO CRITICIZE
May 19, 2002

It was simply unconscionable for the Junior Senator form New York to audaciously stand up in the Senate and lie about not being one of the "second-guessers" when her answer-seeking pursuits are focused more on seeking the presidency than representing her constituents.

Indeed, former co-president Hillary Clinton is hardly in a position to imply that President Bush or anyone failed to prevent terrorism, particularly in light of the fact that she knew her co-president husband was in the best position to prevent the attack on America, yet failed to nab Usama bin Laden, even when the chief triggerman was offered-up by the Sudanese government in the mid-90's.

Alas, New Yorkers, 9/11 victims and all Americans deserve better than shabby hypocrisy and unwarranted political sniping in these starkly dangerous and uncertain times.
