"don't act so surprised you little prick, you knew about this"


If this was Pres. Obama's actions many people would be beet red with anger, who are not at all upset at Pres. G W Bush to this day.

Of course, the report by the National Journal has angered GOP politicians.

9/11/2012 Report: Documents Disclose (over a half dozen presidential) 9/11 Warnings
"CIA Counterterrorism Center official suggested transfers so that somebody else would be responsible when the attack took place.”
By Matt Vasilogambros | National Journal – September 11, 2012

The documents predate the presidential daily briefing on Aug. 6, 2001, which said, “Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.”

The direct warnings date back to the spring of 2001. On May 1, the CIA told the White House that there was “a group presently in the United States” that was planning an attack. On June 22, a daily briefing described the attack as "imminent." Administration officials, however, dismissed the warnings, saying that Osama bin Laden was merely feigning an attack to distract the U.S. from efforts against Saddam Hussein in Iraq.

“Intelligence officials, these sources said, protested that the idea of Bin Laden, an Islamic fundamentalist, conspiring with Mr. Hussein, an Iraqi secularist, was ridiculous, but the neoconservatives’ suspicions were nevertheless carrying the day,” Eichenwald wrote. “In response, the CIA prepared an analysis that all but pleaded with the White House to accept that the danger from Bin Laden was real.”

Briefings on June 29, July 1, and July 24 carried similar warnings. On July 9, Eichenwald writes, one official suggested staff members of the CIA Counterterrorism Center “put in for a transfer so that somebody else would be responsible when the attack took place.”(because of their warnings being ignored by the White House)

Video of press conference of dumya, six months after 9/11, rambling on about how Bin Laden exploits weaknesses and gets young men to die for him, but, "I just don't spend that much time on him" - wow, imagine Pres. Obama saying that ignorant comment?! They'd (Republicans) be rallying outside the White House demanding he resign.
