Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice said she cannot recall then-CIA chief George Tenet warning her
of an impending al-Qaida attack in the United States, as a new book claims he
did two months before the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
"What I am quite certain of is that I would remember if I was told, as this
account apparently says, that there was about to be an attack in the United
States,
and the idea that I would somehow have ignored that I find
incomprehensible," Rice said.

[on screen: VP Dick Cheney saying, 'I really do believe we will be greeted as liberators']. That kind of naive?." --Jon Stewart

The FBI's top
counterterrorism official harbors lots of concerns: weapons of mass destruction,
undetected homegrown terrorists and the possibility that old-fashioned mobsters
will team up with al-Qaida for the right price.
Though there is no direct evidence yet of organized crime collaborating with
terrorists, the first hints of a connection surfaced in a recent undercover FBI
operation.
Agents stopped a man with alleged mob ties from
selling missiles to an informant posing as a terrorist middleman.

"More problems for Virginia Senator George Allen. As you know, he's been accused of making racially insensitive remarks. A number of classmates of Allen's have come forward and said he used the 'N' word quite a bit. He says he doesn't remember that. You know the reason he doesn't remember? Because he never said it to a black guy." --Jay Leno
