So basically we also got high terror alerts on the tail end of the DNC because of this bust, and our best intelligence couldn't figure out that this is older than 9/11 before they have Tom Ridge put out terror warnings.
On the upshot, they were right about the "financial targets."

How long before the 9/11 attacks do you think recon reports were generated? The fact that information is "old" has no relevance. They are "unsure if the group's surveillance continues" which is a far cry from knowing that it doesn't. Despite the ridiculous assertions that these terror alerts are Bush's way of campaigning, they can't NOT do something based on this information.
As far as your claims that the increased pressure to deliver somehow equates to previous feet dragging, that's a mighty big leap to a conclusion. Do you think, maybe just maybe, it's possible that we are getting closer to capturing people after all our efforts and an increased push is warranted? Even if you don't believe that's true at this point do you at least admit that it's a possibility?
