Don't forget.....Everyone in the country was in LaLa land pre 9-11.....GWB had been in office 8 months....NO one in the previous Adm had paid much attention to the Islamist terrorism on the Kobar Towers, the Embassies, the USS Cole, and WTC the first time.... I can well imagine that if we went back to read the NYT or any other paper for a few years pre 9-ll, there would have been little or nothing written about Al Qaeda or bin Laden .... >>>>>In fact, there are almost no public mentions of bin Laden or al-Qaeda by Bush or other top Bush administration officials before 9/11, and the focus instead is on missile defense. [Washington Post, 4/1/2004; Washington Post, 4/1/2004] <<<<< PS....I absolutely shudder t think what would have happened in this country if this had happened in the first 8 months of Obama and cronies..... We'd either have given the keys to America to OBL, or we would have hit every hot spot in the world with nukes.... .Obama 'ain't' no one to triffle with....nosiree.....just ask him if you don't believe that......
