Clinton: Bush Had Urgent Warnings on Al-Qaeda
By Philip Shenon
The New York Times
Saturday 20 March 2004

One official scheduled to testify, Richard A. Clarke, who was President Bill Clinton's counterterrorism coordinator, said in an interview that the warning about the Qaeda threat could not have been made more bluntly to the incoming Bush officials in intelligence briefings that he led.

Tree, I know you most likely won't ever see this, as you have me "ignored",(guess he couldn't take the heat :devil: ) but think of all the thousands of briefings a new President gets, the thousands of details involved in just taking office, the million and one details involved in running this country, and you might get the idea that 9 months into his Presidency, he was still learning his job... not like Clinton who had years to do something, and didn't..... well, besides Monica and his cigars.
