WASHINGTON (CNN) President Barack Obama said Thursday the Bush administration took Americas national security off course in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attack.
After September 11, faced with an uncertain threat, our government made a series of hasty decisions, Obama said.
I believe that many of these decisions were motivated by a sincere desire to protect the American people. But I also believe that all too often our government made decisions based on fear rather than foresight. That all too often trimmed facts and evidence to fit ideological predispositions.

Sooner or later, Obama is going to have to own up to his own failure. The “blame Bush” mantra is going to wear thin for those who aren;t his core supporters.
Obama would have immediately moved to Hollywood where he could curse America 24/7/365 for how America had upset his Muslim Brothers and deserved the actions wrought on 9-11.
Obama would have intentionally encouraged more attacks on “other more deserving American Cities!” It is highly doubtful the Muslims would have attacked Chicago with the likes of Obama and Ayers making their homes there:-(
Bambi got spanked today like the little sissy boy that he is. I know, you know, he knows it.
I know President Bush has a high regard for the Oval Office and Presidential Protocol, but at some point he has to come out and bitch slap this fraud that’s in the White House. Dick Cheney’s doing a good job at it, but it would be better if they did a tag team on Obambi.
The only one taking us "off course" is you, you pathetic foreign born, islamofacist, communist usurper!
How about you finally getting on the course of "leading" the country instead of wasting all your time bad mouthing a great president whose shoes you are not fit to shine.
Obama is taking America off course. Just say the word "surge" Obama. You were against it, and then after it brought victory, would not even admit to its success.THATS taking America off course.
Keep it up Obama. You will incur the hatred that you seek, but not the result.
Obama’s speech demonstrates conclusively that Obama is certifiably insane and that we are NOT SAFE.
Obama is not fit to shine Cheney’s shoes.
He’s not fit to wipe the butt of the boy who is fit to shine the shoes of George Bush.
Obama is mentally very Sick! He is incapable of understanding his pathetic character and moral stability.
Obama was within a hair’s thickness of totally loosing his mental control today, part of the reason he began babbling and ranting, much like Pelosi last week, they know their haggard Lies are unraveling now and they are incapable of stopping the TRUTH from scorching their existence.
Kinda makes you wonder just how doped up Obama’s doctors keep him.
Oh please 0, you ignorant slut. Give it up. Even your brown-noses are tiring of your same old mantras. You have nothing to give to the people. You are a waste of good air. You are carrying out good policies that Bush already had in place and you are now trying to take credit for them all the while crying, “it’s Bush’s fault”, “it’s Bush’s fault”, “it’s Bush’s fault” Sheesh!
Quit trying to cover yourself by dumping on GW.
You have a whole new bloodbath to worry about now.
captain zero is still running against bush.
Man, I hope Cheney keeps it up. He's the only pubilc figure with any gravitas out there right now. Good on him.

He is trying to rip apart his opponents, but he has none.
This show is all yours, you commie scumbag.
And all the blame for what happens sits fully on YOUR shoulders no matter how your party tries to cover you, such as by not funding to close Gitmo.
All the failures we are about to face...
are YOUR FAULT, commie.
I won’t be counting on Bush to speak out.
More’s the pity.
