"The tray marked "Intel" on her desk was carefully emptied before her interview"

Intelligence, surely.

She said that the President had not seen more specific internal FBI memos about flight schools. "He doesn't recall seeing, I don't recall seeing, anything of this kind."

Hmmm, "I don't recall...", wonder where I heard that expression before

Sure did! It is almost mystical. We seem to have the right people at the right time.

I believe that even the dem party loyalist see it as well. Anything the loudmouth BS ers trie to pull on Bush come right back at them.

That 75% plus poll rating will hold.

Condi rules!

But I don't like the author's choice of words here: since Ms Rice......... began tutoring the then Governor Bush on foreign affairs...
The word should be "advising," Jerk!

Nah. Only now, when it is too late, does Tuco realize that he couldn't shine Dr. Rice's pumps, much less get caught dead trying to debate her.

As he drives off into the sunset in the Second Rater Mobile, Tuco realizes that his mission in life is to criticize greatness whenever he sees it, thus speaking volumes about himself.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

I believe it was out of the mouth of your personal heroine, the Whore of Babble-On, Hillary Clinton.

Not everybody lies, you know. I'm sure you're not familiar with that many that don't, but some people actually tell the truth. Novel idea, isn't it? You should tell Hillary.

You mean about government meetings with Enron executives, and terrorist briefings to top-level government leaders weeks prior to 911.

We ALL knew about the warnings right after 9-11; where have YOU been?

As far as Enron, they have the NAMES of who was there long ago, if you don't know that either.

You are a liberal parrot.

"...warnings right AFTER 9-11" did not help the victime of 911.

And what exactly would you have done to prevent it, great mind?

Exactly. No silly, vague statements. Say you know exactly what they knew -- and I'm not saying they knew anything other than generalizations -- what WOULD/COULD you personally have done if you were POTUS?

BTW, who lied about getting those briefings? Other than Tom Daschle, I mean.
