So neither Bush, Rice nor Ashcroft thought terror was a priority prior to 9-11. In fact none of them mentioned it publicly. That pretty much settles that argument.

>>>t focused on a May 10 Justice Department document that set out priorities for that year. The top priorities cited were reducing gun violence and combating drug trafficking. It made no mention of counterterrorism.<<< Maybe we should revive that famous anti-drug commercial with the eggs in the frying pan. The narrator would be facing Bush, Cheney and the neocons: "This is your brain" Then the eggs break open on the frypan. "This is your brain on Iraq ... this is your brain on terrorism ... this is your brain on 9/11 ... this is your brain on the environment ... this is your brain on healthcare ... this is your brain on civil liberties ... this is your brain when it comes to your allies in the world ...."
