Official portrait of Barack Obama
Let's talk about terrorism and national security.
The Bush administration was so incompetent and asleep at the wheel that despite numerous screaming warnings, they failed to prevent the worst ever terrorist attack on U.S. soil. Then the Bush administration's incompetence allowed Osama bin Laden, the architect of that terrorist attack, to escape. The Obama administration didn't allow bin Laden to escape.
Let's talk about terrorism and national security.
Despite his complicity in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103, Bush personally telephoned Gaddafi after normalizing relations with Libya. With the Obama administration supporting Libyan rebels, Gaddafi was driven from power for good.
Let's talk about terrorism and national security. Let's talk about the reality that despite its cowboy act, the Bush administration was a disaster on national security. Let's talk about the reality that the Obama administration has the credibility to decide to pull the U.S. out of wars without sacrificing national security.
The grown-ups are in charge.
