Larry - What is he hiding? There was unwarranted surveillance of the al-Qaeda cells known to be inside the U.S. well before 9/11. That much has been clear to anyone who took the trouble to read the Joint Intelligence Committee hearings in September 2002. See,

Despite the fact that the CIA and DIA knew who the hijackers were, and what their intentions were, 9/11 happened anyway. That happened because Dubya refused to roll-up the cells in 2001. Why? We can surmise it had something to do with giving some old friends breathing space to clean up the books of the financial network that tied UBL in with the same Islamic bankers who were financing A.Q. Khan and Grover and Jack Abramoff's K Street Project before the Bushies rolled out their own counter-terrorism initiative on September 12, 2001. See,

And, then, failing that, try to justify the crime after the fact by institutionalizing an enormous all-seeing domestic surveillance system handled by political crony IT contractors and a compromised General?
