… but it is not the fault of the Clinton administration, per se. Why? … Because, as Dr. Rice admirably pointed out, our pre-9/11 domestic bureaucracy prevented adequate cooperation between FBI, CIA, and local law enforcement.

Maybe so, but Clinton missed the opportunity to take Osama out when he had the chance. Funny how Bob Kerry was getting mad at Condi today, when it was him who said, "The most important thing the Clinton administration could have done would have been for the president, either himself or by going to Congress, asking for a congressional declaration to declare war on al-Qaida, a military-political organization that had declared war on us."

Bob Kerrey's seizing upon the 'swatting flies' comment was most telling ... her comment was clearly regarding the president's desire to no longer play the tit-for-tat game of the previous administration, to switch to a preemptive deterrence mode. But so many will miss the sleazy Kerrey effort to twist what the president said and Dr. Rice related. It was clear from the outset that the democrat partisan hacks packing the committee were on a separate agenda from what the proclaimed mission of that body was stated to be. I smell the clinton-MacCauliffe filth under the scum coating the surface of the partisan efforts.
