“It is incontrovertible that the Bush Administration did not act on warnings of potential major terrorist strikes inside the US prior to 9/11.”

That is simply false. It appears that someone is reading too much of the posts appearing on the Daily Kos. The Bush administration never possessed any significant information about a terrorist attack. Both the CIA and FBI, which were significantly damaged in the Clinton era, only spoke in very broad and general terms. They were also severely hindered by political correctness. Careers were often damaged if one dared to investigate Muslim groups flirting with terrorism.
