"but that the warnings did not contemplate the possibility that the hijackers would turn the planes into guided missiles for a terrorist attack. "


hmmm...

" Bush was handed a good, solid intell briefing well in advance of 9-11, stating that bin Laden would use planes to attack the US."

"My apologies, gentlemen. It appears he was briefed that (1) bin Laden intended to attack the United States; and he was briefed that (2) bin Laden propbably intended to hijack airplanes. I was mistaken, however in saying that the intell said he intended to use the airplanes in making the attack, and there is no reason why anyone should suspect such a linkage between the two things."


Good to know that you CAN acknowledge that you are in error. I guess we won't have to start a thread about impeaching you, now.
