I just heard a quote from Richard Ben Veniste, I'm paraphrasing here "During the millenium celebrations the administration was at battle stations. In the Summer of 2001 the administration was not". I'll get the exact quote later. So to sum up what this guy is saying, Clinton was prepared and Bush was not. During the New Years Eve celebration in on December 31, 1999, we were at high alert because of suspected terrorists we arrested crossing over from Canada. During the New Years celebration in December 2000 we of course stepped up security because of the holiday, as we tend to do during any holiday. On September 11, 2001, we weren't celebrating anything and didn't suspect that a plot was in imminent. It's now official, the 9/11 Commission is playing partisan politics with the one committee we can't afford to. Shameful.
