6. They essentially circular filed that report. * said....
..."Dick Cheney will be handling that". * didn't even READ it.

Well. Tricky Dick II certainly "handled" it didn't he? They went over and threatened Afghanistan with their "carpet of gold or carpet of bombs" threat. Pissed off alQueda and they attacked us.

They did form the OHS, which was recommended in the report. HOWEVER when they formed it - it was AFTER 9-11 and they did not form it as recommended in the report. It was initially not even a cabinet level agency and it was totally unfunded - no $, no staff. WTF? When people griped about that * begrudgingly made it a cabinet level agency and funded it. FEMA was gutted and shoved under OHS and now it is an essentially useless agency. Nothing but an atrophied, lame limb.

What a bunch of a**holes.

Clinton formed the Hart-Rudman commission (made of Democrats AND Republicans) and they spent at least a couple of years going to and researching numerous countries to guage anti-American sentiment. The recommendations were based on that study. bu$hit tossed them at Cheney and they were never read. NOT UNTIL *AFTER* 9-11. And then SOME of the recommendations were only begrudgingly and INCORRECTLY implemented.

:mad:

AND the 9-11 Commission Report - NONE of the recommendations in that report were ever implemented either. bu$hit is too worried about photo-ops, eating cake, taking vacations, foisting propaganda on us because everyone hates the SOB, making tons of $$$$$$$$$ for the Carlyle Group members and his family's other friends in big 'biness' and eating roast pig. NATIONAL SECURITY was, has always been, and still is the LAST THING ON HIS MIND.
