The problem is not within the Bush Administration. Part of it is of course, but that is because of the historical ignoring of terrorists since the Carter Administration. Yet the main problem is from the competition and silence between the CIA and FBI.
Most of this stuff is historical. In actuality, we should have all known that bin Laden wanted to attack within the United States from day one of his connection in the Aden Harbor Bombings in December of 1992. Having a title like this, to me at least, is sort of a "Well No Shit Sherlock" statement.
Yes, there were failures. Yet it wasn't a complete failure by a single administration, from Carter-Bush 43, there were problems that needed to be fixed and they came to the forefront on that Tuesday Morning. I hate all of this political bullshit that is entailing with the 9/11 Commission, I really do, it's just a show-boat with the Government trying to look like it is doing something when it really isn't. The liberals that are solely pointing the finger at Bush and laying all of the blame on Bush are just flat out wrong. Does some blame lie with the Bush Administration, sure, I'll admit that, because Dubya didn't really have a clear agenda once he was sworn into office and he wasn't really focusing on any one thing. Then 9/11 happened, which was a result of the failures of previous administrations, Republican and Democrat alike. However, the single sole blame for 9/11 lies with one man. Osama bin Laden. And when we get him, he will pay for what he has done.
