Bush has the blood of 3000 New Yorkers on his hands for ignoring these warnings.

"Clinton has the blood of 3000 on his hands" based off of what's on your DKos site, JFern.  Additionally, nothing in what is on that site is new (as far as data) that hasn't already been mentioned all the way back in 2002.  It was known that they were trying to hijack a plane.  No one knew when, where, how, or that they would use it to hit a building.  Are you guys that bored over there today?

What was Bush waiting for? A flight number and information on which floor of the WTC would get hit?

You can say "What was Clinton waiting for?"  None of the intelligence indicated when something was going to happen, so what, did you want the air fleet grounded for a year?  Security was put in place, and the airlines knew of the threat.

Clinton should have done more after the 1993 WTC bombing and the 1998 embassy bombings.  All he did was shoot a few missiles into some empty desert.  However, Republicans are equally to blame here.  They were busy salivating over the Lewinsky scandal and claimed that Operation Infinite Reach (among several other US military campaigns) was merely an attempt to distract the public.  Also, the USS Cole bombing should have been an indication to Bush that Clinton had not neutralized the terrorist threat posed by al-Qaida.  However, people were once again caught up in a sex scandal in 2000 about some pregnant guy named Chad and didn't have enough room in their brains to care about potential threats to national security.

All-in-all, Clinton, Bush, and their respective political parties are all equally to blame for 9/11 and anyone who contends differently is showing an obvious bias and an unwillingness to acknowledge that their chosen favorite is flawed.

I could have sworn I made a post here...

Anyway, not to defend Bush any more than is necessary, but I do kind of wonder what you could do with the information that they planned to hijack "a plane".  There kind of are hundreds of thousands such flights made every year.

You should really compare your news sources with other ones, Jfern.

Clinton should have presued Bid Laden with more vigor that is for sure.

Considering France aids terrorists, I wouldn't be surprised that they knew this info
