Republican Bush on August 6, 2001-- BUSH'S ***** UNCOVERED |
NOVEMEBR IS A REFERENDUM ON IMPEACHMENT... after that many many years
must be spent making sure the Bush Crime Family has no money left in
their ill-gotten war-profiteering coffers and hidden offshore
bank-accounts... the U.S. must never again have the Hitlerian Dictators
installed in the Whitehouse.
From Bloomberg, 6/22/06:

Before the congressional Republicans insult those looking for a course
correction in Iraq, they should read the latest book in the growing
body of literature on the Iraqi war, ``The One Percent Doctrine,'' by
Ron Suskind, author of an earlier book in which Bush's first Treasury
secretary, Paul O'Neill, said the administration was set on invading
Iraq long before it stumbled onto the idea of yoking Saddam Hussein to
9/11.
Suskind starts by rewinding to that moment, when if attention had been
paid, 9/11 might have been stopped.
The opening anecdote puts a lie -- yet again -- to the oft-repeated
claim that no one could have imagined al-Qaeda launching an attack
domestically.
A CIA analyst told Suskind of flying to Crawford, Texas, during Bush's
month-long vacation to brief him personally on the Aug. 6, 2001, memo
titled ``Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S,'' a memo prepared when
there had been increasing intelligence traffic about an impending
terrorist attack.
After listening, Bush dismissed the staffer, saying, ``All right.
You've covered your *****, now.''
When you hate government, everyone in it is an *****-covering,
dreck-producing bureaucrat.
Bush returned to his mountain bike.
No one pushed the urgency of tracking al-Qaeda traffic.
Tapes of operatives discussing a possible 9/11 attack sat in the in-box
of the National Security Agency, untranslated until after the attack.
The book reveals that Democratic critics aren't alone in having their
patriotism challenged.
Those in the administration who put forward competing information
``prompted accusations of disloyalty'' and were quickly exiled after
being told that the president preferred to follow his gut.
