With the White House and
their media outlets rushing to
cover their ass in the current
9-11 blame game this very
short video clip should serve
as reminder of the attitude
and actions of the Bush
Administration prior to the
9-11 attacks.

On July 10, 2001, CIA Director George J. Tenet met with his counterterrorism
chief, J. Cofer Black, at CIA headquarters "to review the latest on Osama bin
Laden and his al-Qaeda terrorist organization. Black laid out the case, consisting
of communications intercepts and other top-secret intelligence showing the
increasing likelihood that al-Qaeda would soon attack the United States. The mass of fragments made a compelling
case, so compelling to Tenet that he decided he and Black should go to the White House immediately."

Tenet called Condoleezza Rice, then national security adviser. "For months," Bob Woodward writes in his new book,
"Tenet had been pressing Rice to set a clear counterterrorism policy... that would give the CIA stronger authority
to conduct covert action against bin Laden.... Tenet and Black hoped to convey the depth of their anxiety and get Rice to
kick-start the government into immediate action.

"But Tenet had been having difficulty getting traction on an immediate bin Laden action plan, in part because
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld had questioned all the intelligence, asking: Could it all be a grand
deception?"

Woodward describes the meeting, and the two officials' plea that the U.S. "needed to take action that moment -- covert,
military, whatever -- to thwart bin Laden."

The result? "Tenet and Black felt they were not getting through to Rice. She was polite, but they felt the brush-off.
President Bush had said he didn't want to swat at flies.

"Tenet left the meeting feeling frustrated. Though Rice had given them a fair hearing, no immediate action meant great risk.
Black felt the decision to just keep planning was a sustained policy failure. Rice and the Bush team had been in hibernation
too long....

"Afterward, Tenet looked back on the meeting with Rice as a lost opportunity to prevent or disrupt the attacks.
Rice could have gotten through to Bush on the threat, Tenet thought, but she just didn't get it in time. He felt that
he had done his job and been very direct about the threat, but that Rice had not moved quickly. He felt she was
not organized and did not push people, as he tried to do at the CIA.

"The July 10 meeting of Rice, Tenet and Black went unmentioned in various investigations into the Sept. 11
attacks, and Woodward wrote that Black 'felt there were things the commissions wanted to know about and
things they didn't want to know about.'

The first time I saw this commercial I
thought it was genius.  So simple and so
repetitive. Even more so because they
play 2 - fifteen second spots back to
back! The commercial simply tells you
what the product is and then tells you
how to use it. Yes it is annoying but you
have to admit it's also unforgettable.
