Afghanistan had no effect on your life. Until it did.
NO, what had an effect was Bush being so ******* incompetent that when the CIA came to him and said, "Bin Laden Determined to Strike US" and "Hey, we think he's gonna use airplanes", Bush responded "Well, you've covered you ass" and then went fishing.
Link? Nah. Joe reverts to form. It's all Bush's fault.
Guy, I've linked to that a thousand times... Are you j ust going to pretend you didn't see it.
Ron Suskind George W. Bush and the Aug. 6 2001 PDB - Salon.com
We’ve known for years now that George W. Bush received a
presidential daily briefing on Aug. 6, 2001, in which he was warned: “Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.” We’ve known for almost as long that Bush went fishing afterward.
What we didn’t know is what happened in between the briefing and the fishing, and now Suskind is here to tell us. Bush listened to the briefing, Suskind says, then told the CIA briefer: “All right. You’ve covered your ass, now.”
