Bush prevents the second 9-11

So lets all get this chain of causation straight. The condition precedent to 9-11 was a lax security environment and a failure of imagination in anticipating threats. This laxity was the responsibility of the Clinton Administration, as Clinton failed to appreciate the threat to the point of erecting legal barriers to communication between our preeminent intelligence bureaucracies. The 9-11 commission, for all its flaws, does reprimand our political and law enforcement communities for failing to “connect the dots” where a more attentive posture may have allowed officials to step in and actually prevent 9-11. It is clear now that George Bush has just prevented the second 9-11.

The Bush administration has instituted all the imaginative and aggressive policies necessary to “connect the dots” and has paid a political price for doing so. The NSA programs and related measures have been efficacious ferreting out terrorists. Had these measures been in place before 9-11, it is safe to say Bush would have prevented 9-11. How can a venture such a hypothesis? Because as the facts are coming in on the 8-10-2006 arrests in Brittan, Italy, Pakistan, they show that Bush’s intelligence apparatus played a key role in discovering the and interdicting a huge 9-11 like attack on American bound flights. In sum Bush prevented 9-11!!!

The leftist opportunist Democrats who care nothing for the security of this nation point to the tranquility of our country and claim that this shows there is no need for Bush’s “Hitleresque” tactics. But as is obvious to anyone with a shred of objectivity, America’s relative terror free environment is due in part to Bush’s aggressive security measures. History will judge George W. Bush as one of the top 5 presidents. He is truly a great man.
