Failure is failure, Ann. The Bush Admininistration had sufficient warning of impending trouble such that interceptor jets--you did ignore my point on this, didn't you?--should have been better positioned, prepared and organized to respond to a hijacking. Clinton didn't get the warning a month ahead of 9/11; Bush did. You do agree on this, don't you?

I'd like you to please revisit the questions I originally asked you:

>>>Can you explain, Ann, why it took so long for the US to get interceptor planes on 9/11? Why those planes that did move out were from far away locations rather than close proximity locations to New York and Washington? And why those planes flew at one third their speed capacity?<<<

Regarding your interesting want to be bipartisan on this disaster, it seems to me that those in the Clinton Administration are admitting their mistakes; however, those in the Bush Administration are not admitting to anything at all. This, in itself, should personally give you pause with respect to how Bush handled 9/11.

Rice demoted Clarke and didn't listen to him, the #1 counter-terror expert in government. How can you say she carried on the CT program of Clinton. She ignored terrorism. Wasn't even going to mention it in her speech on 9-11 and never mentioned it once prior to that. Neither did Bush of Cheney or Rumsfeld. They're all total liars and should apologize to the 9-11 victims families if they have a decent honest bone in their bodies.
