Really? So you agree that Bush/Cheney let 9/11 happen? And you voted for them again?

Yet, because someone in the administration might have dropped the ball on one of our State Department outposts, Obama has to go.

I thought there was no might about it. There was certainly no conclusive evidence about 9-11.

That's stretching it a bit, Pete. There's always chatter about this or that threat but we can't be sending in a division of tough assed marines with an aircraft carrier as back up every time someone gets nervous.

It sounds like you're holding the current president to a much higher standard than Dubya, why is that?

He did after all get the job done of killing ben Laden that eluded Dubya for the better part of a decade.

There's a big difference between saying 'there is going to be a terrorist attack soon on US soil' to 1 particular building in an unstable foreign country saying 'we've received a credible threat, please give us additional security'.

Is it the end of the world? No.

There's a big difference between having an attack warning handed directly to the president and having one handed to an official down the chain.

Not to the members here suffering from Obama Derangement Syndrome. Their marching orders from Karl Rove preclude any attempt at honest conversation. Fuck it, I've got better things to do today. Like helping Patty bake some pies for our friends and neighbors.

OK, the President is warned of an attack. No specifics. What do you do?

Plan an attack on Iraq.
