"Makes me wonder if Clinton deliberately withheld these AQ threats from the Bush administration and there was correspondence or margin notes to show that..."
Yeah... nothing is beneath the Clintonistas, from the silencing of Slick Willie's many female accusers, to having subpoenaed Whitewater documents mysteriously disappear, to the pardons of felons, to sale of state secrets to China, etc.
Sandy Burglar's defense that he was constantly having to tie his shoes and pull up his socks is absolutely hilarious.
Imagine the media uproar if W or a staff member tried to claim something absurd like that: "We were slow to respond to the 9-11 attacks because all the "w" buttons were mysteriously missing from our computers when I took office."
