Typical response with invective and no facts. Did you read the 9/11 report ? A family member was at the house last year after the Path to 9/11 series was on TV and it came up in conversation. She came out with your line as she is a lefty (and elderly former hippie). I just happened to have the 9/11 commission report in the bookcase. I also happened to have a book mark in the page where the OBL story was covered. I gave her the book to read and she got very quiet.

Unlike you, she was willing to accept facts.

By the way, BDS is YOUR thing, not mine. The fact remains that the Bush administration was seriously delayed in setting up because of the rage over the 2000 election and in July Doug Feith was the second appointee confirmed. Rumsfeld didn’t have a deputy until June.

Anthony Lake has a lot to answer for. Why don’t you read Andy McCarthy’s book and see how well Kerry and Obama’s approach to arresting terrorists worked ?

I didn’t say that Bush had foresight. I did say that his administration was crippled for a long time, months, by the election fallout. I suspect that is why he made such an effort to assist Obama in the transition. What he found was computer keyboards missing the “W” keys.

But don’t let me interrupt your fantasies.
