Republican National Committee chairman Ed Gillespie blasted Democratic presidential frontrunner Howard Dean on Friday for suggesting that President Bush may have been warned in advance about the 9/11 attacks. "It's breathtaking that someone running for president in either party would float the notion that the president of the United States would have had prior information and knowledge of what was to come on Sept. 11 and did not act on it," the top Republican told radio host Laura Ingraham. "It is astounding to me," Gillespie added. "It's unbelievable, the kind of things that Howard Dean is willing to say." During an interview with Washington, D.C. radio host Diane Rehm on Monday, a caller asked Dean why he thought President Bush didn't want to turn over his top secret daily briefing summary from the CIA to the independent commission investigating the 9/11 attacks. Dean responded, "The most interesting theory that I've heard so far – which is nothing more than a theory, it can't be proved – is that he was warned ahead of time by the Saudis." The top Democrat continued, "Now, who knows what the real situation is? But the trouble is, by suppressing that kind of information, you lead to those kinds of theories, whether they have any truth to them or not."
Oh they did read their history, you can count on it. They're just hoping the Generallydumb Public did not, which of course are the only ones the dems doublespeak/newspeak bravo sierra would work on. Unfortunately, that's about half the country.
Very very sad.....
