While he had months and months and years to hide them, where was our intelligence? We should have been able to track em down.

As Kay said, this is a collosal failure on the part of US Intelligence, primarily the CIA. Many of these failures have taken place under George Tenet.

Why GW Bush won't sack Tenet is something I really fail to understand. The guy has not been working for Bush and it shows.

The Bush Administrations biggest mistakes during these years has been the failure to clean house in the State Department, Intelligence apparatus and the Joint Chiefs. The failure to aggressively use Spec. Ops, the failure of having US diplomats vocally opposing the President's initiatives and the failure of the intelligence community are, right now, severely hurting this President. I hope he understands that.

Get out there and show us how it's done, friend!

Or better yet, read Kay's interim report and then retract your post.

Agree there needs to be some housecleaning at State and CIA
