Bush wasn't even allowed to use the Transition Time Effectively because the Democrats were trying to Steal the Election like they did in 1960.
It is interesting for them to count 8 months when Bush did not assume the office until 1/21/2001 and 9/11/2001 was 7.5 months later.
Even when the Democrats blame him, they could at least give their charges plausible Lie-ability.

But its so much easier to place blame than to listen to facts.
