He also told the Press that he told president Bush on January 20th, 2001 that the biggest threat we faced was Osama bin Laden and terrorism

I remember something about that in the news. Did Clinton actually say this, or was this what one of his former flunkies said?

He never said anything of the sorts, how could he?, he hadn't been briefed by George Tenet for 2 years.

All Clinton ever did was to look over the daily threat assessment from the NIA that was compiled from the reports from the CIA, FBI and the DIA and the State Departments Intel gathering agency. He never called a meeting with George Tenet or Louis Freeh(sp?) to discuss a single daily threat assessment in his last 2 years in office.
