Here's the lead (lede?) to an on-line story on the Washington Post site:
Details Murky in 9/11 Report
Analysis: Keeping parts classified obscures what Bush knew before attacks as well as the Saudis' role
But he went on TV and everything and told us he knew little, that there was no intelligence that would have lead anywhere...
White House spokesman Ari Fleischer refused to discuss specifics of the president's daily intelligence briefings, but said there was back in the summer of 2001 "a general awareness" that bin Laden's terrorist network was considering attacks "around the world, including the United States."
There had been among U.S. intelligence officials "longstanding speculation" about the possibility of a hijacking "but not suicide bombers, not using planes as missiles," Fleischer said
Spring and Summer of 2001, it just coming up like a bad penny. But, as with all things skull-and-bones, it'll take either a congressional inquiry with subpoenas and court-orders, or 100 years into the future to get the truth from a guy who claimed to be "Mr. Truth"...yeah, just like a "compassionate" conservative (whatever in the hell that is).
