Bush's comma quote reminded me of his Mom's quote - "Why should we hear about body bags and deaths? It's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"  Their compassionate conservatism just sends chills up my spine.

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has denied former President Bill Clinton's claim that he did more than his successors to stop Osama Bin Laden.
Mr Clinton said the Bush administration had not tried to tackle the al-Qaeda leader prior to the 9/11 attacks.

Ms Rice, who was White House national security adviser at the time of 9/11, said this was "flatly false".

She also disputed the former president's claim that he left behind a comprehensive plan to fight al-Qaeda .

 

 

NOTICE:

 

First of all, thank you all who donated in my fundraiser. Deep curtsy.

 

Second of all, it's great to be back in the states.  I am producing AHNC today from a Comfort Inn (with WIFI!!) at Atlanta's airport.

 

Hopefully I will return to Home Sweet Home Alabama later today.

 

Thank you for your patience in my down time traveling.

"The Transportation Security Administration has partially lifted the ban on carry-on liquids for air flights. You can bring liquids on the plane, as long as they are purchased from secure airport stores. What a relief, huh? See now instead of bringing your own hair gel, you can buy a three ounce tube at the airport for $162." --Jay Leno

"I think my husband did a great job in demonstrating that Democrats are not going to take these attacks," Hillary Clinton said. "I'm certain that if my husband and his national security team had been shown a classified report entitled 'Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside the United States'  he would have taken it more seriously than history suggests it was taken by our current president and his national security team."
