Clintonites clearly warned Bushies about OBL in January 2001, including a comprehensive plan for dealing with Al Qaida which Rice dishonestly denied ever receiving but which has been shown on TV since, so we know she's lying.

In Feb 2001, it was finally proven Al Qaida hit the USS Cole. That was not known prior. Bush took no retaliation whatsoever.

In early 2001, the FBI was ordered to stop surveillance against Saudis in the US. Ashcroft said to a top agent "Dont tell me anymore about terrorism". Ashcroft didn't want to hear it.

Through the first half of 2001, the demoted Richard Clarke desperately tried to get top Bushies to pay attention to the Al Qaida threat. He didn't get a single top Bushie to meet with him after the initial courtesy meeting with Rice.

In the summer of 2001, two fire warnigns were given Bush and Rice about imminent attacks INSIDE THE US by AL Qaida, probably using hijackings. They did absolutely nothing.

On sept 4th top Bushies finally met about terrorism. The Admiral they put in charge was not even given security clearance at that point.

On 9-11, Rice was scheduled to deliver a speech listing the threats to the US. Al Qaida and terrorism were not on her list. So what was on her list? Mainly Iraq.
