It's been proven that the Bush Administration had plenty enough information to know that an attack was imminent. And someone please correct me if i'm wrong, because I hate unknowingly spreading misinformation, but I believe the Bush Adminstration also had intelligence that specifically pointed to certain dates when attacks were most probable.

That he was "only" in office for 9 months is not an excuse. They had information, and they didn't act on it.
What they've done since is like closing the barn-door after the horse ran away.

Johnny, why don't you mention the fact that Clinton was offered Bin Laden? Also, intelligence pointed to those certain dates BEFORE Bush even took office.

Look, I really am not a Bush fan. He didn't get my vote in 2000 and he won't in 2004. But I feel I must defend him on this area, as I agree with his decisions. You CANNOT blame 9/11 on him, or at least I haven't seen a reasonable argument for this.
