Bush and Rice try to blame everyone else for thier own failures
Apparently Condolezza Rice is such a Republican coward, that she still won't testify in public or under oath, even though Rumsfeld, Albright, Cohen, and Powell did.

Not only that but as John Kerry has said, President Bush is able to attend some dumbass rodeo, but not a hearinf into the worst attack in American history. The sad thing is that Laura is so biased and out of touch, that she won't even call the President on his cowardly behavior.

Also, President Clinton killed at least 40 Al Qaida fighters in his cruise missle attack on an Al Qaida base in 1998, and he only missed killing that punk Bin Laden by a mere hour. And thier is a great deal of evidence that the factory he hit was a chemical weapons factory and not a "Aspirin Factory" as so many Republican idiots like Laura Ingraham have claimed. The sad truth is that George Bush is a coward and an incompetent who allowed 9/11 to happene on HIS watch.

PS. Oh and if Richard Clarke is so non credible, how come he served under Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, AND Bush jr. must have thought he was good, otherwise why did he make him his terror chief.

3. Rice should have quit on 9/12/01
She is one of the foremost world experts on the cold war, but that war is long over and she simply has not managed to move on. She is completely out of her element, and it shows rather badly.

The smart thing would have been to quit and retire to Academia, where she could have been greatly respected as the top authority in her field for a very long time to come. Alas, 3 years of being Bush's nanny and talk show mouthpiece has destroyed any credibility she had, and that is a loss to all.

11. Honestly I fail to see her as an expert in anything at all
I know she recieved a doctorate, but, ended up in corporate board rooms, where she learned to walk the walk and talk the talk.

I honestly fail to find her unique in any way.

8. Richard Clarke is the John Dean
of our generation.

However, even more significant is that Clarke is one of the head spooks and for a spook to go public is a major, major deal. I wonder if the Plame outing had anything to do with what motivated him to come forward to tell the truth?

9. Bush blames someone else when he shits his pants.
And then he polls on whether to wipe.
