wow. of course we're not sure if these allegations are true, but to be honest, i wouldn't be surprised if they were. However, this isn't the first time this has happened in the white house. A while ago I read a book written by an ex CIA agent who was stationed in the middle east durring Clinton's presidency. He wrote many letters to Clinton telling of a threat from a network of terrorists from afghanistan (al queda) unfortunately, Clinton continued to ignore these, this information didn't even get out until this agent quit his job, and I believe he is now in some legal trouble over the issue, but i could be wrong. But that doesn't make what bush did (IF this is in fact true) any better, if anything, it makes it even worse. I find it pretty disgusting that two consecutive presidents have chosen to ignore something like this.
