Clinton is barely mentioned in the Newsweek article, except to claim that fighting terrorism was his number one priority, when it wasn't for Bush.

But here's a nicely ironic quote from near the end of the Newsweek piece -- the moral:

What Americans should be asking is why the Bush administration in its first eight months, like the Clinton administration for much of its eight years, did not demand the intelligence cooperation that was needed. At issue is not whom to blame for the past, but how to learn from it to safeguard our future.
