Bottom line on the report of the commission:

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm..._on_re_us/sept_11_commission&cid=519&ncid=716

EXCERPTS:

...In recent interviews with The Associated Press, commissioners said the report will fault Congress for poor oversight of intelligence gathering and criticize government agencies for their emergency responses to the 2001 attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.

The harshest criticism will be leveled at the FBI (news - web sites) and CIA (news - web sites), with the panel citing poor information sharing and intelligence analysis as key factors that allowed the hijackers to carry out their plot. Both Kean and Hamilton have said the attacks conceivably could have been prevented had government officials done their jobs better.

Commissioners won't point to individuals in the Clinton or Bush administrations, instead laying out what they consider a factual accounting of events.
