      The White House said tonight that President Bush had been warned by American intelligence agencies in early August that Osama bin Laden was seeking to hijack aircraft but that the warnings did not contemplate the possibility that the hijackers would turn the planes into guided missiles for a terrorist attack.


      Not true. The August 6 briefing mentioned no times, dates or places. It did not mention planes being used as missiles. What was Bush supposed to, decalre martial law and take over the airports on such vague warnings?

      If a report 2 years earlier validly mentioned that al Qaeda was going to use planes as missiles and was actionable, why didn't Al gore get Clinton to do something about it if he is so tough on terrorism?

      Stupid nonsense.

          What a fcuking idiot.


          FACT: Bush was warned of hijackings prior to 9/11.
          FACT: Bush did NOTHING.
          FACT: Bush knew about reports of Al Qaeda hijacking planes to use as missiles.
          FACT: Bush knew about Al Qaeda agents enrolled in US flight schools.
          FACT: Bush did NOTHING.
          FACT: Bush refused to have a face to face meetings with his anti-terrorism expert until AFTER 9/11.
          FACT: Bush could have ordered airliners to heighten security and install such simple measures as banning boxcutters and installing tougher cockpit doors and it would've prevented 9/11.
          FACT: Bush did NOTHING.
          FACT: When Clinton/Gore were warned about possible terrorist attacks they instituted tougher security measures which foiled the plans of the LAX bomber.
          FACT: Bush did NOTHING.
          FACT: Al Gore would've done SOMETHING if his anti-terrorism expert warned him.
          FACT: Bush did NOTHING.
          FACT: Bush killed thousands of Americans without bringing the person responsible to justice.
          FACT: You're a clueless IDIOT.

            There were no times, dates, or places to act upon. Explain what you think he was supposed to do.

            FACT: Bush knew about reports of Al Qaeda hijacking planes to use as missiles.




            FACT: Bush did NOTHING.


            The August 6 briefing DID NOT contain accounts of such actions. If such threats were credible and actionable 2 years earlier, why wasn't action taken then




            FACT: Bush could have ordered airliners to heighten security and install such simple measures as banning boxcutters and installing tougher cockpit doors and it would've prevented 9/11.
            [/I]



            FACT: Bush did NOTHING.


            Can you be any more of a dumbass? Box cutters and other such items were legal for decades. If Bush had taken any action before 911 to take the actions necessary to prevent 911, you and your fellow moonbats would have been calling for his impeachment for violating your rights. He eavesdrop on terrorists to prevent attacks now and you whine about that.


            FACT: When Clinton/Gore were warned about possible terrorist attacks they instituted tougher security measures which foiled the plans of the LAX bomber.

            FACT: Bush did NOTHING.


            Bullshit. That was the action of customs agents completely independent of the Sinkman's policies.

            FACT: Al Gore would've done SOMETHING if his anti-terrorism expert warned him.


            You are too stupid to know the difference between fact and opinion, so why bother

            FACT: Bush did NOTHING.

            FACT: Bush killed thousands of Americans without bringing the person responsible to justice.



            Fact: Actions the Bush Administration have have prevented any further terrorist attacks since 911.

            You're out of your league. Stick to bad sports bets.

                letting the pilots carry a glock wouldve prevented 911

                if al gore was president, after 911 he wouldve had all the airports put up signs:



                that way the terrorists would know that they are not allowed to ride on airplanes anymore

                  If a cop were to send you a note that he heard chatter during his patrol that thieves may be targeting your home, you would do nothing because he didn't know the exact date/time????? Of course not. You would be busy installing security systems, window bars, and even getting a gun.

                  Who would've objected to the banning of boxcutters, you fvcking dolt? So you want a president who would rather cost thousands of people's lives rather than ban something that shouldn't even be allowed in the first place?????

                  Bush prevented further attacks after 9/11? THat's like saying someone invaded my home, killed my family, stole all my valuable.... but they haven't returned so I feel good. What a fvcking idiot.

                      if soemone said 10 years ago, if you vote for bush, we will have 911, katrina, bankrupt our country, have a 6 year war with iraq with no exit strategy, lose 4k soldiers, alienate our allies, do nothing about global warming, have 4 dollar gas, a 700 billion dollar bailout, and you think thats better than the alternative, then good luck with your life my friend

                              Maybe you should tail and save up enough money so you can move when Obama is elected president.

                              Looks like the Taliban will be back in control of Afghanistan and you can move there since you are opposed to gambling and anything else that resembles freedom.

                                what alternative? living in a fantasy world?

                                you give bush way too much credit,
                                there's plenty of blame for 911 to go around
                                same with katrina
                                same with spending
                                same with iraq
                                global warming is a fraud
                                oil is controlled by a cartel
                                bailout - everyone that isnt running for re-election this year is for it
                                sure bush is to blame for a lot of bs, but you seem to hold him to a higher standard than congress collectively. seems to me you buy in to the partisan finger pointing and political mud slinging.
                                government sucks.

                                  they all happened under one president
                                  not under anybody but him
                                  name me another president who has created the problems he has

                                  congress is a bunch of chicken shiqts who let him wrap himself in the flag and gave him what he wanted

                                  they suck too
                                  so what, he led the charge into iraq. he said brownie had fema down pat. he ignored warninigs for 911. he invaded iraq

                                  thats his legacy, not theirs

                                    thats the thing, there's been plenty of problems created just in this (past) century alone.

                                    bush didnt create a lot of his problems, he's just getting stuck with the blame for them.
                                    a lot of the problems you mentioned are rooted in government well before bush was in office.

                                    name me a president that hasn't sucked.

                                          lincoln sucked, for him to be so against the mexican american war, how could he have let the civil war happen?
                                          every other major country abolished slavery without having a civil war.

                                          and fdr belongs on the worst list, probably #1. new deal? this shit is what is wrong in government today.

                                          i say after monroe, the rest pretty much suck.

                                            they're going to need another New Deal here pretty quick.

                                            ALL the presidents can and should be convicted of war crimes. FDR is the only pres I give any credit to because of involvement in WWII, (even though there's always dubious intent)

                                            I agree the individual president is just a clog in the system, and isn't responsible for as much as people think. However, Bush is a buffoon of a unique kind, and American policy has taken some dramatic leaps during his time.
