<<One month before the hijacking, as news of an imminent attack traveled even up to the White House, George Bush took the longest presidential vacation in 32 years - a month-long retreat to his Crawford ranch.>> You win the full of crap reward. Congress takes off the month of August as does the President.

Does anyone seriously think that "Bin Laden <was not> determined to strike in US?" "One of the problems was there was really nothing that look like was going to happen inside the United States...Almost all of the reports focused on al-Qaida activities outside the United States, especially in the Middle East and North Africa...We did not have...threat information that was in any way specific enough to suggest something was coming in the United States." --Condi Rice "If we had known an attack was coming against the United States...we would have moved heaven and earth to stop it." --Condi Rice commondreams.org
