Honor and Integrity?
From Billmon:
....apparently it came up in Rice's 9/11 testimony -- but the infamous August 6, 2001 presidential briefing, the one the Bushies have fought like rabid wolverines to keep secret, has a title:
"Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S"
Bush's last carefully worded excuse:
"Had my administration had any information that terrorists were going to attack New York City on September the 11th, we would have acted."
Amazing!
I think most people would realize that with all the information out there, there's still a big chance that the attacks would have occured anyway. That is what Richard Clarke says-911 still may have happened. It's obviously a hard thing to do, but why can't the Bush Administration just admit that they screwed up? He made such a fuss during his campaign about "restoring honor and integrity in the White House", but President Bush can't look the American people (or the press) in the eye and admit the truth.
