This is just another example of the administration being very aware of what they're specifically saying. An excercise in semantics, if you will.
Of course, there was no
specific warning of an attack. Did they expect Al Qaeda to send them their plans? Warn them beforehand of the particulars? Perhaps an itinerary of where the hi-jackers would be on September 11th?

White House spokesman Scott McClellan said yesterday the newly released document does not alter the administration's view that it had no specific information on a potential attack and that it was not offered a concrete plan to avert an attack.

Again, of course you had no
specific information as, by and large, terrorist organizations usually don't make their plans known to their enemies. And of course, it wasn't offered a concrete plan to avert attack. The outgoing administration made their concerns known and it was up to the incoming administration to devise their
strategy and implement their plan of prevention as they're in charge now. Once the current administration came in, America's protection became their responsibility.
I have to say, host, that although I don't always agree with your politics, you always present a rational argument for debate. You've put up an astounding amount of information concerning this and well....it is much appreciated, sir.
