... Bush was told more than a month before the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, that supporters of Osama bin Laden planned an attack within the United States with explosives and wanted to hijack airplanes...
the sad thing is that this doesn't seem as shocking as it should be. it reads like it's new news, but it feels like it's something we've always known.

which brings me to another point entirely: bush went to war with Iraq on the flimsiest (if existing at all) of evidence, but bush couldn't listen to real evidence and real warnings all around him, surrounding him and his administration, to prepare us for a real attack in our own country? seems like he was only paying attention to what he wanted to, and disregarded everything else.
much like everything else he's done the last four years....
he should be tried for 'high crimes and misdemeanors' and impeached. there, i said it. and at the very least, voted out of office. how many lives (from 9/11 to the inexcusable war on Iraq to what's next???) are dead on his watch? how many? unforgivable.
