Opposite Land - was 9/11 Bush's Fault?



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

So I just watched Curt Weldon on CNN talking about the 9/11 hijackers having been identified by this super-double-secret military intelligence task force in 1999. According to Weldon, unidentified lawyers prevented that information being shared with the FBI for follow up. He didn't identify which lawyers are at fault, but he did tie it to a tone in the culture of the Clinton administration after Waco.

And so, it's all Bill's fault?

Now Weldon has been talking about this for a while. He said in the interview that he said all this in a floor speech in June. So why all this publicity now?

Well, if history is any guide, there is something about to come out which blames Bush for 9/11. Think about it, these guys live in opposite land. Clear Skies? No Child Left Behind? With Iraq getting worse by the day, the one boogie man Bush could always point to is 9/11.

9/11 was a closed issue, the Commission's work was finished. Why bring this up now? Why generate news about this now? To cement in at least the Right Wing's mind that 9/11 was Clinton's fault (like everything). It's just my guess, but expect something to come out (on a Friday afternoon no doubt) which shows some new, tragic Bush administration failure.
