Hmmm. Bill Moyers raised the report yesterday evening, but he did not use it to bash Bush.

He said that one thing that intrigued him was that there was that major report and everybody ignored it...including himself and the rest of the media. At least Moyers understood that many people were asleep at the wheel, not one person. (And Bush wasn't one of them who was according to the info coming out).

It appears the left decided a couple days ago to wave around this Hart-Rudman report and claim it was completed at the end of January yet was ignored by the new administration.

As I noted, someone posted this spin to me yesterday, which sent me off to do research. I asked this person what that had to do with Richard Clarke, and why, just because a point by point adoption of the H-R reprt wasn't done, how does that prove the Bush adm wasn't doing anything? Needless to say I did not get a reply.

One talking point was it was the H-R report that proposed a Department of Homeland Security, and it was asserted that since the creation of such a Department was not completed before 9/11, that the suggestion was ignored. That has been flat-out proven to be a false assertion.
