Desperation breeds stupidity, and lies....

Dems know what's about to happen to them, and liberals are fanaticly trying to prove they still matter....

It does not matter if it is TRUE or not at this point, the ALLEGATION is more damaging than being exposed as lie....

These people are pathetic. I have more respect for cockroaches.

In June or July of 2001, there were news reports that a major attack on U.S. soil was imminent. They weren't sure of who,what,when,where why, and how though. They just knew it was going to happen. THIS WAS IN THE NEWS. I am certain that Tenet discussed it with Rice. The Bush administration couldn't act quickly enough because they were still trying to get their government together after the multiple recounts forced by Gore in Florida caused them to run way behind on schedule. I sincerely believe that the administration would have had a better handle on this if not for the 2000 Florida Fiasco.

The Gore campaign is to blame for this. It could have been worse, the Clintonites tried to usurp our Democratic Republic and attempted a coup. They were unsuccessful. This was a dangerous precedent and I think they will try it again.

Don't look for them to concede any future (especially close) Presidential Election very easily. John Kerry waited till the following morning, about 8AM or so before he did, and it wasn't even close. His people were also making false claims about disenfranchisement in Ohio when it was clear that he wasn't going to win.

[Howlin]

I'm smiling here; do they not realize that by commenting here, they are acknowledging that their report is a POS.

Intel networks were probably reporting "imminent" attacks by al Qaeda every day for the 10 years preceding Bush 43's taking office. It depends on what is "imminent" about the word "imminent"

[Perdogg]

There was a report about Ashcroft taking private planes by CBS. It was assumed also that there was going to be an attack at the G8 summit in Italy.

I just don't know what Woodward is trying to accomplish here. He's in the twilight of what I loosely refer to as his journalism career. I thought he turned the corner with his excellent "Bush at War" book but I guess that was a desert mirage. Oh well once a lib always a lib.

[WL-law]

There's really nothing at all new here, although the Libs/MSM are trying desperately to generate some political friction out of Woodward's book.

For example, recall that Richard Clarke, self-enamored metrosexual poser that he is, made basically the same type of accusation against Condi, and expressed it in the same type of proto-typical Lib expression, i.e., Clarke claimed that at some meeting Condi "seemed unaware" (emphasis on the soft observation "seemed") of the existence of Al-Qaeda. Also recall that Clarke's observation was proven absolutely false based on established fact, i.e, Condi definitely knew who Al-Qaeda was.

And now again, we have an accusation wrapped around a soft perception of a presumed emotional state. In the hard world known as "reality", there's nothing being expressed here except the imagined soft impressions expressed by people with an obvious axe to grind, all conflated into a pseudo-fact.

So what are we left with? One thing is clear: in the Oprah-ized unverse of the Dems, feelings are the same things as facts. in fact, they are more genuine.

HowcomeBob didn't write a book warning us about 9-11 before it happened?

[jrooney]

Thank you for the link. Disgusting. I am not sure if anything else I can read or hear will make me more upset at the liberal MSM, donks or their cronies. I have had enough of them, and I will presonally do my part to lead to their destruction and defeat. Everyone I know is voting a straight republican ticket here in Oregon.

[Hugin]

Maybe Woodward heard if from someone in a coma.

[Howlin]

Read my link in 21 and see what you think.

[Semi Civil Servant]

Rice didn't tell them, Tenet didn't tell them.

But Woodward tells them, and they believe it.

Bob's a regular mind readin' swami, ain't he?

[PISANO]

An "IMMINENT" attack and WE failed to take action????

Don't believe this for a second!!

[BARLF]

I wonder more just what Rove has up his sleeve to blows these moonbats out of the water.

The moonbats are gonna be sorry. President Bush has plenty of ammunition to sink em. OReilly spoke of this years ago,wondering why President Bush had not used it against clinton

The supporters of our enemies are gonna wish they had co-operated more,supported our troops and not leaked intellingence secrets to benefit the terrorists. Plus everything else they have said and done against this Adm.

President Bush wanted to work with the other side(I refuse to call them democrats) for the good of our country. They would have none of it.

President Bush is a patient man,a man of faith,but never forget he is smart, clever and one good poker player. Or is it chess?

Hilllary will never be president of this United States. The era of the clinton is over.

God Bless America and our wonderful brave troops!

[ExSES]

Members of the Sept. 11 commission said today that they were alarmed that they were told nothing about a White House meeting

And..., I just wonder what party these "Secret Members" are from??? I heard that Martians had told Clinton of the attack before the election and that he and Gore decided to only react if Gore was elected! (Placing aluminum foil helmet back on before I am zapped for revealing this)!!!

[srmorton]

I agree. It is another desperate attempt by the DBM to appear to make the eight months of George W. Bush's term more responsible for 9-11 than the eight years of Bill Clinton's terms. As I have said before, Presidents at least as far back as Jimmy Carter all could have done more to address terrorism.

Although 9-11 was one of the most horrible things that has ever happened to our country, I think that fighting over whose fault it was is completely missing the most important lesson we should have learned from that attack - THESE PEOPLE WANT TO KILL US AND DESTROY OUR WAY OF LIFE. It is imperative that we succeed in Iraq because that is where it appears that the jihadists have chosen to fight the infidels (namely the US and the rest of the civilized world). We can not afford to give them the victory they so desperately seek by giving up in Iraq before the mission is complete. They know that the only way that they can win is if they can get us to quit.

As long as President Bush is the POTUS, I know that HE will not quit, but if the Dems are able, by hook or crook, to steal enough seats to take over the HOR, they can cut off the funding as they did in Vietnam. WE MUST NOT LET THAT HAPPEN! For the first time, I am not too excited about voting for my own representative, Walter B. Jones, because he has recently become so critical of the war, but he is so strong on immigration and other issues that I can not seriously consider any other possibility. I do not think that he would vote to cut off the funds for the war because he is such a strong supporter of the military. I encourage all of my fellow freepers to go out and vote to keep these imperfect Republicans in office because our country can not afford to have the Democrats in power at this critical time.

Members of the Sept. 11 commission

I guess Anonymous wasn't available for this report.

[jrooney]

Excellent post! I could not agree more. All of us that understand and agree with your words need to work very hard to convince family, friends, neightbors, coworkers, etc. of the dangers of changing leadership during these very dangerous times. The donks needs to be kept out of power!
