"I'd say she ignored warnings, and so did Bush." Rice has already responded to that in recent intervies. I find her to be an intelligent and credible person. "Terrorism simply wasn't a priority..." Priority is a measurement that gives some issues weight in relation to others. I'd say prior to 911 that this administration had given terrorism a weight that was at least equivalent to the previous administration and greater than the administrations of Presidencies befor that. Since 911, they have given it a much greater priority than previous administrations. 911 was a shock and with or without available terrorist information all politicians were taken by surprise. We expect them to be on top of things because that is what they get paid for, however we also expect them to conduct themselves as most reasonable persons would in their place. Prior to 911, reasonable people in the USA would have been appalled if the govt began rounding up suspicious acting foriegn college students. After 911 most reasonable people see things differently, so its not surprising that some of us look back and wish things could have gone differently in the run up to 911.
