Actually, the outgoing Clinton Administration briefed the incoming Bush'ists on the growing Al Qaeda threat. The Bush'ists weren't interested.

I stand corrected. I would imagine you have validation given that was the position of the Clinton apologists, whom you have wittingly entered an unholy alliance with. Let us forego Berger stealing top secret documents obviously incriminating to the Clinton Administration. Let us forego the wall of intelligence separation that rendered intel gathering impotent, by Jamie Goerlick (strangely enough a member of the 9-11 Commission). Let us forego the fact that Osama was offered to the Clinton Administration several times, by the Sudan, but turned down because he was an incompetent self-servant.
Is it not possible that any warnings to the Bush Administration were vague and intended only to cover-their-asses in case an eventuality like 9-11 became a reality?
Indeed, my friend, you are becoming a tool of the leftists. You are, by association, a tool of the Islamofascists. You are in bed with those who have fleas, albeit your obvious enemy (socialism) has become an opponent of your adopted enemy (establishment Republicans with all their obvious failings), you have inherited their fleas. Your unholy marriage may serve their purposes in the short term, but will accrue to their interests in the long run. Their intended product of societal chaos will pay dividends to socialism, as greater powers will be justifed because of this byproduct. The byproducts of greater insecurity and weakened national defense (as you and the left agree on a weak military).
Yes, we have leaned in the direction of socialism in the short term, but only to fix the problem before the neo-communists have the opportunity to make the situation worse and the solutions more despotic. I admit an element of faith on my part, blind as it may be, but I certainly would think twice jumping on board of the Democrat Titanic to achieve safety from a leaky but seaworthy life-raft.
