If it was not for the persistence and perseverence of the 9/11 families, the 9/11 commission would not have materialized. Bush was against it but then had to give in to the pressure of the victims' families.

It was a golden opportunity for him to have taken the lead from there on out. But now Kerry seems to have taken the lead. Bush says he is going to examine the report before deciding on any action. I wish he took that approach for the intelligence report on Iraq and the Presidential Daily Brief of August 8, 2001. He didn't care to examine those carefully then. Don't you think he should have been cautious there instead of the 9/11 commission report. He had access to the report before the country did. He had all the time in the world to examine it and come up with a plan to present to this country simultaneously as the report was being released to the public by the Commission members.

Seeing how he lagging on this issue, how can he claim he is taking a leadership role in the war against terrorism? Where is his proactivity, his so called "pre emptive thwarting of attacks"? How many more American lives will it take to convince those who are not yet convinced, that Bush is a laggard on the fight against terrorism.
