NY TIMES POLL: 9/11 FAMILIES BLAME CLINTON

A New York Times poll of 9/11 victim families released on Sunday shows that more Americans who lost relatives in the worst terrorist attack in the nation's history hold President Clinton responsible rather than President Bush.
"As for assigning blame, more of those interviewed blamed former President Bill Clinton than blamed Mr. Bush for the awful human damage inflicted on American soil that day," the Times said.
The paper declined to release specific figures for the finding, based on a survey of 339 relatives of 9/11 victims, explaining, "The study differs from a scientific survey in that the total population of living relatives of 9/11 victims is unknown and therefore could not be sampled precisely or randomly."
Reacting to results of the 9/11 survey, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton defended her husband's record.
"There were ten missed opportunities [to get Osama bin Laden] in the 9/11 Commission [report]," she told ABC's "This Week." "Six of those [were in] the first eight months of the Bush administration, four of those in the eight years of the Clinton administration.
Mrs. Clinton also claimed that the 9/11 Commission had praised her husband's handling of the 1999 Millennium threat as "exemplary," though the Commission actually attributes the foiling of the Millennium bomb plot to "luck" alone.
Sen. Clinton appeared on "This Week" in her role as chief of the Democratic Party's "Truth Squad."
