So, I'm checking out tomorrow's NY Times. I see this (un?)sensational headline:
9/11 Report Cites Many Warnings About Hijackings
I read the entire article looking for some reason why I didn't hear about this BEFORE the election, or some mention of political effect of this....and read...and read....
I encourage you to do the same and take the poll.
More on the flip side.
Fundamentally, this Administration ran and won in 2004 on the basis of its purported ability to protect the American people.
It seems to me the case against Bush began in the spring of 2001. His national priority at that time? Missile defense. As we all know too well, within months we were treated to the grim reality of what true UNpreparedness is. And these guys were warned time and time and time again.
Not only did they fail to heed these warnings, their behavior in the aftermath of the attacks bordered on the absurd. Instead of protecting us from future attacks, they executed ill-conceived, scorched earth military operations that are destined to keep us under attack for the next generation.
With this latest article, it is becoming clearer than ever the degree to which these guys dropped the ball. The question is, why weren't these FAA failures disclosed before the election? Why did Dems on the committee agree to submarine this? Why is it that the media has been so unwilling or unable to bring together the various elements of this story? Why couldn't our Presidential candidate start with Bush's incompetence before 9/11 as he made his case?
I know I am preaching to the converted, but I continue to be flabbergasted by the extent to which Americans have bought the BIG LIE.
Have you come to grips with it? If so, I'd like to know how you did, and what we can all do to tear down the BIG LIE.
