For instance, if the White House was really doing its job on terror they would have listened to Clark in the spring of 2001 and they especially would have paid attention to the 8/6 report from the CIA about OBL. They might have even tightened procedures so a couple of the 9/11 people would have been found out.

The they would have concentrated on Afhganistan and the OLB hideouts in Tora Bora and not diverted many of our top soldiers to the Iraq theater. etc etc - how about the inept screw-ups in Iraq starting with the no guarding of ammo dumps because we did not have enough troops? Got to go, but i could go on for pages , including pointing out GWB's lousy economic policies.
