Republican Presidents and Intelligence

It seems that repug presidents have a problem with intelligence - both their own and the agencies. You never hear Democratic President's having issues with the Intelligence Agencies. In fact, Obama and Clinton were effective in using the information they received to avoid attacks on US citizens around the world and take down enemies like bin laden.

repugs blame their stupid, incompetent or treacherous acts on bad intelligence instead of their own failures.
