Richard Clarke stepped forward this weekend and asserted that the bush administration could have done more to stop September 11th. Richard Clarke was bushes first anti-terrorism advisor. It seems even then bush had it in for Iraq.
"Frankly," he said, "I find it outrageous that the president is running for re-election on the grounds that he's done such great things about terrorism. He ignored it. He ignored terrorism for months, when maybe we could have done something to stop 9/11. Maybe. We'll never know."
Powell, the new mouth piece of the bush administration now that Rumsfield has been proven to be fallible, is now making strong statements to the effect that there may have been nothing the administration could have done to stop 9/11.
In worse news, Scalia won't step adide from Cheney's case. Scalia went on to say that thinking that a duck hunting trip could bias an supreme court justice paints a very horrible picture of where we are as a country. I agree with him, but I don't think that that horrible picture is inaccurate.
