I dont see how any side can cry partisanship with this. There should be an outcry to investigate if "Able Danger" actually knew what was going on, or if they simply knew something was going on (as was found post-Pearl Harbor investigation).

I think before 9/11 we had the intel, we knew something was going on but noone (on either party) ever took it seriously. I don't think anyone ever thought it possible that such destruction could happen.
Yeah the Cole was attacked, but so were Marine barracks in Lebanon under Reagan. All were tragedies but none were truly the President's fault.
Bush is doing the best he can, my problem with Bush (as far as this topic only) is that he does to much "covert" shit and is willing to take away rights, bypass laws and feels he can get away with anything he wants.
