What Did Bush Do to Prevent 9/11?

Keith Olbermann drives another hole through Bush’s 9/11 armor of infallibility, and answers the question, Just what did the Bush administration do to prevent 9/11 and to respond to the bombing of the Cole?

We Were Attacked by Al Queda

On September 11, 2001, we were attacked by Osama Bin Ladin and his terrorist network: Al Queda. The Bush administration took their eyes off the ball, plunged us into a war of choice in Iraq, all the while Osama Bin Ladin remains at large. As for Al Queda, the terrorist organization now is a multi-headed beast with outcrops in many more countries than it had in 2001 and all Mr. Bush can now say about Osama Bin Ladin is:

“I don’t know where he is. You know, I just don’t spend that much time on him… I truly am not that concerned about him.” [President Bush, Press Conference, 3/13/02]

Bush’s supporters can rationalize things all they want and split hairs into a million pieces, but none of their cognitive dissonance will change facts on the ground, and every day that passes the truth becomes harder and harder to spin.
