Vomitos, amigos
I've picked up some kind of fluey crud, so blogging may be sort of light today.
"National Security should never be held hostage to a political party, or a political issue or to an election.The American people expect more." - Republican Senator Chuck Hagel, 1/29/06. "Oh, and Karl Rove's a #ucking asshat."
Pants on fire
And no one could've predicted the breech in the levees, either!
In speech after speech, [Preznit Liar McPartyhat] claims that if the National Security Agency could have wiretapped two Al Qaeda operatives living in San Diego, the 9/11 attacks might have been thwarted. "We didn't realize they were here plotting the attack until it was too late," Bush said Wednesday at NSA headquarters.
That's a whopper, critics say.
"It's not true," ex-9/11 commissioner Bob Kerrey told the Daily News. "We knew about those two guys - the CIA lost them."
The two guys were Nawaf Al-Hazmi and Khalid Al-Mihdhar, who hijacked American Airlines Flight 77 and flew it into the Pentagon.
They were identified in late 1999 by the NSA as Al Qaeda agents and tracked by the CIA to Malaysia and Thailand, where they were lost, according to the 9/11 Commission's report. The CIA learned in March 2000 that Al-Hazmi flew to Los Angeles in January, but kept it secret.
