4. Ha-Ha! That was great.
Points to bring up: During Clinton's term, no one in the CIA or the FBI would certify that bin Laden was responsible for 9/11.

When Clinton wanted to go after bin Laden, the right-wingers (who were pushing the Paula Jones civil lawsuit and supporting the Ken Starr investigation) were accusing him of wagging the dog.

So, can we all conclude that it was a terrible idea to allow a sitting president to face a civil lawsuit DURING his term of office?

10. Move/make his bones
Yep, it means to make your reputation.

Remember that famous quote from The Godfather, when Moe Green says to Michael Corlione: "I'm Moe Green! I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders!" :)

11. That makes two
Okay, so now we can chalk up TWO Democratic administrations who went after, and eventually got bin Laden, with a Republican administration in between that took an eight year nap (while still managing to spend a trillion dollars for nothing).

C'mon voters, when are you going to learn to tell the difference between doers and posers?

19. The Democrat Clinton started it & the Democrat Obama finished it...
The Republican Bush was distracted by the flashy lights of Iraq.
