With all the "prior warnings" and different presidents and parties cited in the first video link, I wonder how this government was able to keep it all a secret. I mean, the intelligence (oxymoron) community plans for worse case sceanarios and they even had some of the details, methods of attack, correct. But none of our wonderful government agencies, congressmen, senators, presidents, FBI/CIA/NSA were able to see this coming. Nor was anyone able to stop it. Look how quick the government reacted to Katrina! OMG! I want and expect only one thing from my government; Keep the idiots off of our shores. If they get to us, blow them to kingdom come and don't seek approval before you do it! If you expect a huge bueracracy to handle things quickly, efficiently, and discreetly then you have more faith in the government then I do. I doubt the US Government, or any president, knew about the terrorist attacks. They may have planned for it but thought that the possiblity of such and attack remote. How many times have we heard that line from politicians? I wish we had all of that information before this happened.
