12. Most incompetent group ever
Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 08:03 PM by suegeo
"And the president decided that it was time to deal with this problem, particularly in light of September 11, when we learned that we don't ever know when a threat is really imminent. "

She just admitted that this adminstration can't find its ass with both hands.

If you can't even give me a ballpark timeframe Dr. Rice, or can't stop "traditional" hi-jackings, then what the hell are you doing as National Security Advisor. Why should I listen to Dr. Rice, who was in charge of security on the day that the biggest security failure in our country's history happened? It's like hiring Forrest Gump to teach me how to map the human genome.

Also, the government itself admitted that the NSA had intercepted messages from the so-called 9.11.01 hi-jackers before the attacks, and that these msgs ("tomorrow is the big wedding!") were sitting on someone's desk waiting to be translated.

So, umm, wouldn't hiring more translators HELP them to know when an attack is imminent? And if not, why did they hire more translators in the months that followed the security failure that happened on Dr. Rice's watch?

From what I can recall, many many countries sent the USA warnings that we were about to be attacked. It seems we were the ONLY country that didn't know something was gonna go down (on Dr. Rice's watch.)

Incompetent boobs (or worse). The whole lot of 'em.
