Subject: RE: BS: The Aug 6th Presidential Daily Briefing
This is all so ridiculous. Teribus and Strick are ill informed, and using their own set of facts to justify their opinions. See it all the time from closed minds.

THE FACT, Strick, is that the Democrats are not the ones who requested this PDB. The 9/11 commission requested this PDB, and many other documents, and were refused for months by the White House.

THE FACT, Teribus, isn't that there was just this one PDB with nothing else. There was this PDB, both historical and current (that pesky May 1st date), AND the fact that the CIA has already testified that there was a tremendous increase in the amount of "chatter" the summer before 9/11.

As I said, you can't look solely at this PDB, it must be viewed in the context of the other evidence and testimony.

Of course George Tenet says nothing could have been done. He'd get his ass fired if it could be proved otherwise, now wouldn't he? It is Tenet who prepares the PDB for Christ sake.

But I don't want you fellas to hurt your heads using critical thinking skills that obviously were put in cold storage when you closed your minds and locked.

You are entitled to your opinions. You are not entitled to your own set of evidence, testimony, and facts.
