Condi & Bush; "If we only knew we would have moved heaven and earth."
The story that is more damming are the 52 pre-911 warnings. Remember 3000 people died because Bush was on vacation and instituting an "anything but Clinton" approach to the administration. You want to get the American people insensed and behind some movement to "impeach" * - This Is The Story.

In the mean time - the 52 warnings have come and gone. The bulk of the American people don't even know that they existed. What - the story was alive for a day and a half.

Bush goes to war with faulty intel (Tenet) and instead of firing him,? Bush awards him with a medal of honor?

The 911 Commission report is on the coffee table of "patriotic Americans" and it is billed as the "final" report. They wanted us to believe it was final. That's why they made it affordable to anyone who wanted to purchase it. Get it out - make people believe and put it behind us.

Why didn't the 52 pre-911 warnings get into the report? Because - well ya think - it might have cast some doubt or blame on Bush?

Oh - we'll release it - but after Nov. 2nd. After we're comfy back in the White House And you know - people will be so sick and tired of all this politicking - we'll make it go away fast.

We'll get them upset about SS. We'll get them upset about 150 social and environmental programs getting cut from the budget. And just in case those don't work? - we'll throw in a reporter/male escort in the White House press corps, then? - it's off to Europe.

1. Does this mean they control the weather and earthquakes?
I'm semi-kidding, of course.

2. The CIA-Inspector General's 9/11 Report has STILL not been released.
The CIA Inspector General's 9/11 report (the one that "names names") has NOT been released. It was complete last year, is not classified. They said they'd wait until after the election to release it, but we still have not seen it!!

Check this article out:

Oct. 19, 2004, from Truthout:

It is shocking: The Bush administration is suppressing a CIA report on 9/11 until after the election, and this one names names. Although the report by the inspector general's office of the CIA was completed in June, it has not been made available to the congressional intelligence committees that mandated the study almost two years ago.

"It is infuriating that a report which shows that high-level people were not doing their jobs in a satisfactory manner before 9/11 is being suppressed," an intelligence official who has read the report told me, adding that "the report is potentially very embarrassing for the administration, because it makes it look like they weren't interested in terrorism before 9/11, or in holding people in the government responsible afterward."

When I asked about the report, Rep. Jane Harman (D-Venice), ranking Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee, said she and committee Chairman Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.) sent a letter 14 days ago asking for it to be delivered. "We believe that the CIA has been told not to distribute the report," she said. "We are very concerned."

According to the intelligence official, who spoke to me on condition of anonymity, release of the report, which represents an exhaustive 17-month investigation by an 11-member team within the agency, has been "stalled." First by acting CIA Director John McLaughlin and now by Porter J. Goss, the former Republican House member (and chairman of the Intelligence Committee) who recently was appointed CIA chief by President Bush.
