Yes but his administration was not allowed to put his National Security team in place since the RATS were holding up confirmations.

Condoleezza Rice became the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, commonly referred to as the National Security Advisor, on January 22, 2001.

Let's see...who else is on the National Security Council?

There's the Veep. Cheney was there from day one.

There's the director of CIA. GWB kept Klintoon's director, Tenet, did he not?

So let's see, that leaves Rumsfeld. He was sworn in on January 20th, 2001.

You're claims don't hold water. Sorry. Try again.

I was not speaking of his cabinet. But the team which was to deal specifically with terror most of which was not in place until the summer of 01. In addition, it was only years later that the long overdue housecleaning of the CIA began. You can review any of several threads about this posted here. It is no secret.

There is no doubt that Bush neglected to consider the depth of RAT treachery and did not purge them all immediately. That is his only major failing wrt the War against Terrorists.

You're claims don't hold water. Sorry. Try again.

And Clinton/Gore were at the helm from Jan. 93 - Jan. 01. During WTC 1, USS Cole, Kobar Towers, etc.

Do you have a point?
