So, just What Did the Bush Guys do to keep the terrorists from attacking

America? It seems they Had plenty of warnings and a history of them attacking us here and over seas. Never mind attacking Clarke and his book. Answer the questions.

Just what is it they did to prevent an attack?

And the answer is Nada. They Ignored Rudman Harts report who predicted and gave guidelines as to how we could protect ourselves better among other things. Our brave leader is a reactive and not a Proactiver Leader. Very poor leadership indeed.

Come, we go :puke:

While Richard Clarke was pleading with the Bush Administration to pay more attention to preventing terrorism, much of the Administration's attention was distracted on planning billions of giveways to the energy industry.

Dick Cheney was made chairman of the top-secret Energy Task Force, as well as the anti-terrorism Task Force. The Energy Task Force met 9 times in the first 4 months of the administration. The Anti-Terrorism Task force NEVER MET. Dick Cheney or his top aides did find time to hold 6 meetings with officials of Enron during this time, including a meeting between Cheney and Ken Lay.

(Enron and its executives have been George W. Bush's biggest political campaign contributor over the years.)

Of course, both Cheney and Bush came from the Energy Industry. They were busily working on expanding oil and gas drilling on Federally-owned land, reducing regulations on the energy industry, opening up the Arctic Wildlife Refuge for oil wells, and planning for billions of new "incentives" and tax breaks for energy production.

The Bush Administration has continued to keep the workings of the Energy Task Force top-secret. The issue is now before the U.S. Supreme Court.

and their ineptness.

Remember Air America airs on Wed 3/31!

took you a long time getting up outta that hole in the ground to look it up, did it?

welcome back to life!

Al Franken, BTW, wanted Diane Sawyer to ask dumbo what the higher number would be:

A) the national debt times the number of times the anti-terrorism task force met

OR

B) the national debt times the number of times the energy task force met

he then wondered if dumbo would know the mulitplication identity property of zero, since that's how many times the terror task force met

that cracked me up

Chaired by that crooked liar, Sneering Dick Cheney.

and had 4-5 months to pull it together before the attack. Guess he was too busy meeting w/maggot Kenny-boy Lay to bother with swatting terrorism flies.

Barf....

the sanctions were about to be lifted (hey, now that was imminent) and SH was going to deal ONLY in Euros which would have cost us a bundle.

Hey, you know what this means-they MUST deserve another term, right? :eyes: Let's not elect him this time either.

...
By the end of April 2001 - only three months later - the first annual terrorism report issued by the Bush administration made scant mention of al-Qa'ida. A senior State Department official told CNN at the time that the Clinton administration "made a mistake in focusing so much energy on bin Laden".

There is evidence of their complacency without Clarke.

I could only guess. Any ideas?

They were throwing in a black velvet painting of The Last Supper as a deal-closer.

But they said they did, so that makes it so for the matrix dwellers.

I knew there were a lot of idiots floating around this country, but I never fully appreciated just how magnificently they've mastered idiocy.

Cut taxes of billionaires to save our freedom.

:eyes:

for a month beginning on August 4th 2001 and didn't return to Washington until September 4th 2001 just a week before 9/11. OBVIOUSLY the administration was NOT taking terrorism seriously!!!!!

Guess he didn't like the peanuts. <smirk>

edit: usual stuff

was going to happen.

The MSNBC poll released yesterday showed some effect, but not enough. It showed many more people placing blame for not preventing 9/11 on Clinton than on Bush. I'm trying to stay hopeful by remembering that it took a long time for Watergate to sink into the public consciousness.

gates of hell for *. Many more will follow. Joe Wilson's book is coming out soon.

he blind mice and Pubs whores suck for the excuses and blame game

...to repel them

statues would ever terrorize us again. I, for one, will be forever grateful for this. I don't know how I would have possibly survived without his great foresight and wisdom.

Drapes around "Liberty"??? It went all down hill after that. Bad Luck has followed the Bushies ever since that June day in 01. They will soon realize this and Da Drapes Guy will have to retire to be with "Family".....

two tittie cheers for the Count of Monte Crisco!

defending our noble nation against.
