that's the terms that Al Q came alive i thought we are talking about security and 9/11. How far back should we go. It's like kerry going back to when he was kid to talk about his experience. i want to know what you did in congress and will do in the future . not your vietnam record from thirty years ago. to me it has nothing to do with being qualified to run for president. so i want to know what clark was doing in the last couple of years leading up to 9/11 and clinton.. did clark tell Clinton our top priority is Al Q. and we need to go after them with full vigor. We have heard Clarke and the selling of his book lets here Clinton adm and bush adm.

That's a "Peter Principle"/rising to each individual's level of incompetence thing. A person can serve a company 30 years, start as a great mailroom clerk, elevate to be a great mailroom manager, eventually become Chief Operating Officer in that 30 years and completely drop the ball. When they screw up as COO, it becomes much less pertinent that they served under 7 CEOs, 5 of which were right-handed. Darn good mailroom clerk, though. "rather strange, that you pick on 1x4 year term of a person that has served 7 presidents. "
