I'm sure it's not just the logic you fail to see. As I'm sure you were not part of the intelligence community, with all the insight that goes into a decision like the one President Bush was confronted with...I'm not worried about why. I'm more concerned with...why not sooner...? In response to embassy attacks abroad, Ol' Clinton lobbing a few ICBM's into tents in the Afghan desert to deflect from his blue dress problems is disconcerting at the very least. No foresight or justice on that administrations' mind, that's for sure. In multiple attacks, terrorist kills scores of US serviceman and diplomats, and he just didn't seem to give a shit.

Oh, and by the way...wasn't it Saddam Hussein that was paying Palestinian homicide bombers' families $10,000 to blow up busloads of innocent Israeli citizens? An admitted and proud sponsor of international terrorism. Now that he's gone, notice that shit doesn't happen too much any more?

Likely because the democrats wouldn't have it any other way. Democratic earmarks are attached to virtually every bill, budgetary or otherwise. The word 'blackmail' comes to mind after reading some of the bills.
Regarding the immigration issue...<shifts uneasily in chair> I really have no clue, but I've been clueless before so it's not too traumatic.
However, I don't choose an elected official based on one issue.
Sorry, I seem to have devolved from the original topic...
