It is unbecoming of the White House to have failed to stop Sept. 11, 9-11 can hardly be blamed on Bush.... and then use Sept. 11 photos for political gain. Having seen the pciture in issue, one would not even know it originated on 9/11 if the democraps had not hyped it so...

Scumboy, You are inferring that the White House could have prevented 9-11. Only an idiot would make that assumption. Are you an idiot? In this case hindsight IS 20/20 and you Demoscrubs are talking out your ass. Think about it. Given the mood and lifestyle of Americans prior to 9-11, do you really think even one American would have stayed home from work, or not gotten on an airplane if the White House had issued a general threat about some hijacking somewhere, sometime? Let me answer that for you, NO..they would not have. One thing I will say, and that is that the FBI, CIA and all intel gathering agencies HAVE to work together. THey have not done it in the past, and it is the fault of every President and every congressperson to date. Prayerfully that will change and get better.

>>If they preferred not to take action against such warnings, they could have at least passed them on to the public so that innocents might have chosen to stay off airplanes boarded by groups of middle eastern males. << Oh, I get it. It's ok for "innocents" to profile, but not a government acting to protect its citizens.

Well, if you recall several non specific warnings have been passed along the the general attitude is why bother. As to using a photo, PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH was a rock of leadership and fortitude and his way, his words gave all comfort and confidence. I don't comprehend why anyone would find something wrong with an image that underscores that good feeling of American coming together and uniting to fight evil. Passing on non specific warnings is not useful. Those who need to disparage and slander the President will do so and honest folks will see thru their continued believe he(the stupidest that ever was) did not have sex with that woman. tom watson tosiwmee

A short while ago you complained the right and left continuously wants to divide people and is not willing to dialogue in a rational way. Then a couple of days later you proceed to take the Carville/CBS radical left wing bait and divide the nation by insinuating our President could have prevented the attack had he "done something", such as this. It's utter Bullshit Scumbria. And any logically thinking non-blinded by partisanship person would agree. This kind of attack-dog philosophy of the Democrats makes me hold their supporters in utter contempt. Attempting to blame President Bush for the attack of 9/11 is vile to the core. But, not surprising coming from the "wave a hundred dollar bill in a trailer park" Carville crowd. I can only imagine what it must be like to be this mentally fooled by a group of people hell-bent on tearing down and dividing America.
