"As you read the report, you're going to have a pretty clear idea what wasn't done and what should have been done," he said. "This was not something that had to happen." You say: "Bush should stonewall on the records now, more than ever." So you are comfortable with the fact that 9/11 COULD have been prevented, and WAS foreseen, and yet, instead of the people who dropped the ball facing any consequences, we all get saddled with anti-constitutional crap like the Patriot Acts.

I repeat: the American public would not have tolerated what they now tolerate, without 9/11.
I don't think 9/11 could have been prevented, and NOBODY foresaw it.
Certainly not Tom Kean.

What should those responsible have done to prevent the attacks?
Something not as "drastic" as the Patriot Act?---

A good step by the Bush Administration might be to release some of the 28 Commission report pages about Saudi involvement in 9-11, that were bogusly stamped "secret" (Repub Sen. Shelby called the 28 pages "90 percent" releasable).
Until Bush and co. come clean about the Saudis and 9-11, they deserve to be taken to task.
