W "Kept Us Safe?" CIA Says Not So, Jeb.

"It's even worse than anybody has previously thought  For the first time, we now know in painstaking detail what was going on in the White House in the months leading up to 9/11.

In 2004, it became public knowledge that President George W. Bush received a 'Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.' memo in his Presidential Daily Briefing on August 6, 2001.  That was only one month before the attacks.  Now, ex-CIA Director George Tenet is revealing that the CIA began warning the White House much sooner, and far more urgently than what has been previously reported.  Every single time he and the CIA pressed the alarm button, he was given the cold shoulder by Bush and his team.

It began in May of 2001 when Tenet and then chief of CIA's counterterrorism center, Cofer Black, pitched a plan called 'the Blue Sky paper' to Bush's national security team.  They wanted to attack Al Qaeda pre-eminently to foil their plan because they received warnings that a significant attack on American soil was about to happen.  Here's what they were told afterward:

'We're not quite read to consider this.  We don't want the clock to start ticking.'

For those (who) are unfamiliar with CIA-speak, this means they didn't want a paper trail to begin yet to show that they've been warned...

...The warnings only got more urgent from there."

eye'm thynkin':  Still want us to believe that your brother "kept us safe," Jeb?  

All W wanted was a way to get back into Iraq so he could out-do Daddy; but he needed a reason the American people would swallow--something like the attack in the CIA warnings.  "We're not quite ready to consider this," sounds like they'd rather wait until something happened (how bad could it be, right?) so they could storm into Iraq to the soundtrack of world-wide accolades to their strength and bravery in the face of tragic adversity.
