I was going to post this in the other forum, but thought it would have greater revelence here. I saw this the other day about declassified docs, but didn't think much of it. But I believe it would be absolutely juicy for this to be a topic of discussion to throw the repugs (and Mittens) off their game of BS. I would be curious as to how Mittens would respond to questions on this.

Another Reason For Mitt To Treat Bush Like Poison

Washington, D.C., June 19, 2012 -- The National Security Archive today is posting over 100 recently released CIA documents relating to September 11, Osama bin Laden, and U.S. counterterrorism operations. The newly-declassified records, which the Archive obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, are referred to in footnotes to the 9/11 Commission Report and present an unprecedented public resource for information about September 11.

Hammering nails into the coffin of the Bush administration's involvement in 9/11 hasn't been easy: Republicans have avoided the topic for a decade. They'll certainly be spinning everything they can with this latest revelation: pointing to Clinton, distancing themselves from Bush, painting the CIA as dunderheads, maybe even saying that al Qaida didn't really exist before 9/11. Whatever the spin, however, the fact remains: Bush knew about imminent attacks from the very beginning of his Presidency and even hampered efforts to catch/kill Bin Laden.

Perhaps most damning are the documents showing that the CIA had bin Laden in its cross hairs a full year before 9/11 -- but didn't get the funding from the Bush administration White House to take him out or even continue monitoring him. The CIA materials directly contradict the many claims of Bush officials that it was aggressively pursuing al - Qaida prior to 9/11, and that nobody could have predicted the attacks. "I don't think the Bush administration would want to see these released, because they paint a picture of the CIA knowing something would happen before 9/11, but they didn't get the institutional support they needed," says Barbara Elias- Sanborn , the NSA fellow who edited the materials.

From June to September 2001, a full seven CIA Senior Intelligence Briefs detailed that attacks were imminent, an incredible amount of information from one intelligence agency. Documents also show that the CIA gave warnings to the out-going Clinton administration, indicating that Bush knew about them from the very onset of his Presidency.

But can Bush be held accountable IN TIME?

And will Democrats make the revelation a stance against any of Romney's foreign policies? As de -regulator in national economic affairs, Romney has struggled to distance himself from the disastrous effects of the Bush administration while trying to convince the American public that Bush had set the stage for bin Laden's death. "I think the tools that President Bush put into place -- GITMO , rendition, enhanced interrogation, the vast effort to collect and collate this information -- obviously served his successor quite well," Rove said on Fox News.

The newly revealed documents now catapult statements like this into the highest category of BS in U.S. history.

Yes, it is. Where is the mainstream news media and why aren't they talking about this? 9-11 might have been avoided if we had had a real president in office instead of the dummy one we had.
