How many souls would still be here if w had only warned us?
If he'd only taken a few moments of his vacation time to make a few phone calls, call out a few orders, and simply warned us about nine eleven in New York City, and DC.

It would have been so, so easy to prevent, just a warning like the one he got, could possibly have spared the three thousand that perished that day. A mere phone call or two might have prevented the three thousand soldiers who have died since nine eleven, and the approximately 60,000 or more innocent Iraqis who didn't have to die.

My rough estimate is seventy thousand. Seventy thousand people in America, Afghanistan and Iraq who might not have died if bush had only picked up the phone and warned us.

Yet there he still is, president, 5 years after failing to warn us or failing to get the perp.

Its hard to wrap one's mind around it.
