Donald Trump: "The World Trade Center came down during the reign of George Bush. He kept us safe? That is not safe." Donald Trump was repeatedly booed by the GOP presidential debate audience Saturday in South Carolina when he criticized former President George W. Bush for failing to keep America safe on Sept. 11, 2001. "How did he keep us safe when the World Trade Center went down?" the party front-runner said to boos. Rival Marco Rubio immediately cut in and cast blame on former President Clinton. "The World Trade Center came down because Bill Clinton didn't kill Osama bin Laden when he had the chance to kill him," Rubio said, referncing the 1993 attack. In an audio recording of Clinton from the day before the 2001 attacks that wasn't released until 2014, he admitted that he had the chance to kill bin Laden while in office but decided against the strike out of concern for hundreds of civilian casualties. Trump responded to Rubio's barb by arguing that Bush had the chance to kill bin Laden as well and similarly decided against it. The comments came minutes after Trump first brought up the 9/11 attacks in a barb with Bush's brother, White House hopeful Jeb Bush. Poster Comment: The neocons love it when the Bush's tell them goat stories. Trump booed over 9/11 comments

I am so sick of this crap. There are many things I may or may not agree on about 911 and and Iraq. I respect those attitudes. Among those: The Iraq war should never have been fought. The Iraq war was mismanaged. There were no "real" WMDs found. However there are other points I find disgusting. That's because You have become a leftard, moonbat, Pink Code, Cindy Sheehan worshiping moonbat. Among those: Bush lied, The attack was on Bush's watch (like he was a night watchman in an office building who fell asleep), Bush was in cahoots with the Juze, etc. I know every fact about this issue and will only serve to embarrass you if you argue with it. get a life, conspiratrds.
GWBush deserves all possible ridicule; perhaps it all started during his cocaine days before the National Guard? Moreover, every voter for that pompous ass needs ridicule, as well. Don't tell us that you voted for him? Not once but twice?
Trump ripped into neocon foreign policy in general, 3 Bush's, 2 Clinton's, Obama. Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria. It was somewhat like Ron Paul schooling Ruby Giualanni in the '08 debate. Trump is no RP, but at least he's questioning the status quo Bush/Obama/McCain/Hillary neocon insanity.
