Most historians - liberals, conservatives and others agree that
Abraham Lincoln was one of history's greatest wartime leaders.
Indeed, he is widely credited for saving the union. An interesting
fact about his wartime leadership has many important lessons for us
today - if we are willing to listen. When Lincoln was not happy with
the direction of the war - he acted. He wasn't afraid to "switch
horses midstream." Lincoln replaced the Commander of the Army of the
Potomac (the most important unit in the military) five times during
the civil war. He replaced his Secretary of the War, and replaced
the Army Commander of all land forces at least twice. When Lincoln
saw things were going wrong, he didn't "stay the course" - he
changed the course. This is what great leaders do. Sadly, we are
stuck with a Commander in Chief who has yet to either take
responsibility for, or hold any one in high command accountable for
the deadly blunders that have occurred in Iraq. Since he refuses to
change course or take responsibility, it's time that WE - the
ultimate civilian leaders of this country - take the action Bush
won't. As Lincoln would have done, we need to replace the Commander
who is responsible for the mess in Iraq.
Jim Salisbury

--------------------

I've tried to think of a way to explain this to civilians and those
who've never served. I think this example illustrates the problem
pretty well: When I was a Sergeant in the US Army I once received a
written, formal reprimand for an event that occurred when I wasn't
even present. I fact, I was in the emergency room with a temperature
of 104 degrees. A soldier under my command was supposed to make a
public relations appearance at a social event for families living on
post. He forgot about the event and didn't show up. As his direct
supervisor, I was punished - not him. It may seem harsh to those who
have not served, especially for such a non essential, public
relations event. However, those who understand military leadership
know I thoroughly deserved this reprimand. Military leadership
requires leaders to assume total and absolute responsibility for the
actions of those subordinate to them. I failed to have a plan B
(and/or C,D, and E if that's what it took) for this event. The
responsibility was clearly mine, and I accepted my punishment and
learned from it. My chain of command was right to hold me
accountable. Military Leaders taking unconditional responsibility
for what happens on their watch is a time-honored tradition that has
served our nation, and all great military organizations, throughout
history. In fact it's the bedrock of military leadership. If there's
a more important rule of leadership, I can't imagine what it might
be. Though President Bush's military service was quite limited, I'm
sure he must have been made aware of this expectation of leaders.
Sadly, as President, he has failed to take responsibility, or hold
his senior staff accountable, for the many costly failures in Iraq
and the hunt for terrorists. In the latest failure of
accountability, Bush has refused to take responsibly for 400 tons of
missing explosives In Iraq, despite the fact that the administration
has known their exact location and inventory since at least 1991. A
true leader would say, "I accept responsibility and I'll get to the
bottom of it." But Bush is blaming Kerry for talking about it,
making excuse, deflecting and spinning. This trend of refusing to
take responsibility and hold military leaders accountable is a very
consistent theme in this administration. The administration does not
accept responsibility for the mess in Iraq, the failure to plan for
the occupation phase of the war, soldiers fighting with inferior
equipment, the prison scandals of Abu Ghraib, the weapons of mass
destruction, the escape of Bin Laden, the still unsolved anthrax
attacks at the US Capitol and other locations, the failure to
respond to the al Qeada attack on the U.S.S. Cole, and, of course,
the attacks on 9/11/01. Not to mention the economy and other
domestic issues. In fact Bush has actively tried to avoid
accountability of any type. He was against the formation of the 9/11
investigative committee, then resisted testifying and resisted
allowing senior staff to testify. He resisted the formation of the
Homeland Security Department. He makes a habit of denying past
statements, even when he must know the video tape exists to prove
he's lying. In fact, the only senior official to be held to any
standard of accountability was General Eric Shinseki. His offense?
Performing his duty by warning the administration it would need far
more troops and equipment in Iraq than it planned to use. A position
that has since proven profoundly correct. There are many reasons I
believe we need a new President and Commander-in-Chief. However,
none are as important as President Bush's stubborn refusal to accept
responsibility or even admit he's made mistakes. This is not strong
and consistent leadership - this is a weak and pathetic imitation of
leadership. This man must not be allowed to remain our Commander-in-
chief.
-------
Ronald Reagan, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Jimmy Carter,
John F Kennedy, Harry Truman, Franklin D. Roosevelt. What do all
these Presidents have in common? They all had the integrity to
publicly take responsibility for military mistakes that happened on
their watch. All of them stepped up to the plate, took the hit and
changed course. President Bush refuses to take responsibility for
any of his mistakes, and he refuses to hold his leadership
accountable. Consistency is admirable - being consistently wrong,
and refusing to accept responsibility is not admirable. If Bush
won't even admit to his mistakes, how can we trust him to fix them?
We simply can't. All the tough talk and consistent sound bites in
the world can't change that. ACCOUNTABILITY STILL MATTERS IN THIS
WORLD!

Hello friends,
As you know I'm an avid John Kerry fan. I'll admit
that when I first became interested in Kerry as a
candidate, what attracted me most was his
"electability." Like most Americans (Democrats and
not) I was not happy with the direction of the nation
and looking for a candidate who could beat Bush.
However, since that time I've read a ton about John
Kerry, studied his life and learned about his past -
and his record. I'd like to share some of what I've
learned. I know this is a little long but he's done so
much – the complete opposite of Bush's baseless sound
bites.. There is a lot of info here, but it's all
summarized and it's a quick read. I've decided to
leave out info on his childhood and military service.
Enough has been said about his military service - if
you've got any doubt what so ever about his heroism
I've got plenty of evidence to show the accusations
against him are absolute nonsense. Just let me know
and I'll send it to you. Instead I've decided to
concentrate on information that hasn't gotten as much
attention and shows why he will make an excellent
President. Here's some interesting background info:

* Unlike President Bush, Kerry was a successful
business owner. He was the cofounder and part owner of
a very successful cookie shop that eventually
franchised.

* Kerry was the co-founder of the Vietnam Veterans of
America (VVA), a national non-profit organization that
promotes issues important to Viet Nam vets, advocates
for them and provides assistance to them and their
families.

* After law school Kerry was a top prosecutor in the
Middlesex County district attorney's office. He was
especially effective in fighting organized crime and
white collar crime.

* Kerry was an innovator and reformer everywhere he
has served. At the D.A.'s office he overhauled and
modernized procedures to make the office more
efficient. He reduced a backlog of thousands of cases.


* Long before it was fashionable, he created programs
to help protect the rights of victims and provide them
assistance getting on with their lives. He created a
program that recruited and hired qualified women
attorneys.

* As a private attorney John Kerry was very
successful. He also worked pro bono freeing wrongly
convicted, innocent people from jail.

* Perhaps most impressive in his early career is what
he did as Lt. Governor. This office is usually a
"place holder" job with no real responsibilities or
power. Kerry did not accept that. As Lt. Governor, he
ran MassAction - a watchdog group that exposed and
corrected the mismanagement of funds in the State
Treasury. He created legislation to reduce acid rain
and helped the National Governors Association get it
implemented. These regulations have since been lauded
as some of the most effective environmental
legislation ever.

* Again way before it became fashionable, as Lt.
Governor he created a State-wide victim and witness
assistance program, helped write and get passed
racketeering legislation and was a pioneer in the
field of prosecuting and preventing computer crimes.

In the US Senate:

* Kerry investigated and brought down Pakistan based
BCCI International bank This huge organization was
used for money laundering and other shady dealings for
drug dealers, terrorists, organized crime and
political corruption. (Also see "political suicide
below)

*  Kerry fought against US support of Philippines
dictator Ferdinand Marcos long before he fled in
exile, disgraced.

* Kerry was one of the first Democratic Senators to
sign on to the Graham-Rudman Budget Deficit Reduction
Act and lobbied other Democrats to vote for it. Many
sources have said his efforts were the key to its
passage. Ted Kennedy said Kerry talked him into voting
for it.

* As early as 1989 he was trying to get the government
(President, Intelligence agencies, etc) to pay more
attention to terrorism.

* He was one of two key investigators who exposed the
Iran-Contra scam where the US secretly was involved in
illegal gun-running and narcotics trafficking in the
contra insurgency in Nicaragua, and illegal arms sales
to Iran.

* During his Iran-Contra investigations, Kerry exposed
Panama's Manuel Noriega's involvement in drug running.
Kerry was the first to expose this dictator who up
until that time was "our man in Central America" and
receiving millions of dollars annually in US aid.

* Kerry has received the National Health Association's
'Legislator of the Year Award' for his support of
expanded child care and attention to at-risk children,
and been recognized by other health care advocacy
groups.

* Along with John McCain, Kerry worked for years to
account for every last POW/MIA from Vietnam and
normalize relations with that nation.

	 * The Association for Enterprise awarded Senator
Kerry their 'Leadership Award' for his work on the
Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee. He has
introduced legislation and fought for incentives to
stimulate small business growth.
* He fought against the Strategic Defense Initiative
("star wars") and the MX Missile system – both
unnecessary and expensive projects that would have
diverted defense money away from the troops.

* Kerry was one of the original organizers of the
first Earth Day in Massachusetts, and would later
chair the National Earth Day board in 1990.

* Kerry cosponsored the Equal Rights Amendment

* In 1986 then-Congressman Dick Cheney proposed a tax
on oil that would have raised gasoline prices, costing
consumers $1.2 trillion and would have laid off
400,000 workers. Senator Kerry co-sponsored the
resolution that stopped this oil tax.

	 * Kerry cosponsored the Americans with Disabilities
Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act.
	 * John Kerry exposed fraudulent intelligence spending
and proposed cuts to end it. The cuts passed in
congress with no opposition. He then supported $200
billion in responsible intelligence funding over the
next seven years.
	 * In 2003 Kerry voted for the second appropriations
bill ($87 billion) for the war in Iraq when it
includes a way to pay for it. When the Republicans try
to charge the cost to our children, Kerry voted
against it in an effort to hold Bush accountable and
curb the crushing national debt.

* In 1988 he saved  Republican Senator Jacob "Chic"
Hecht's life be performing first aid when he was
choking . Hecht: "He sized it up in a split second and
saved my life," "Every year at Christmas my wife and I
call John Kerry and thank him for saving my life," --
Jacob Hecht

	 * Senator Kerry has repeatedly fought for better pay
and benefits for soldiers, veterans, police, and
teachers.
	 * Senator Kerry Co-sponsored McCain-Feingold Campaign
Finance Bill to ban "soft money." Kerry also worked
with Senator Paul Wellstone to introduce a Clean Money
bill.
* John Kerry was among the earliest supporters of the
Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency
(CARE) Act, which today is the largest discretionary
federal investment in treatment and support services
for individuals and families living with HIV or AIDS.
Today, 533,000 Americans with HIV/AIDS receive better
treatment through this program.
* John Kerry has been a tireless champion of mandatory
funding for veterans' health care. He fought
vigorously for full funding of Veterans Administration
(VA) health care and opposed the Bush administration's
exclusion of Priority 8 veterans and its elimination
of VA outreach efforts. He sought improved
prescription drug benefits and authored legislation in
2003 to let veterans fill prescriptions written by
non-VA doctors through the VA pharmacy.
* John Kerry co-sponsored an amendment that
successfully required health care plans to provide
coverage for a minimum hospital stay for a mother and
child following the birth of the child.
* John Kerry wrote the Nurse Reinvestment Act to help
relieve a nationwide, crisis-level shortage of
registered nurses by encouraging more young people to
choose a career in nursing. Today, enrollment rates at
undergraduate nursing programs are up by 17 percent.
* John Kerry's 1996 bill, the Healthy Children, Family
Assistance Health Insurance Program, was the precursor
to the successful State Children's Health Insurance
Program (S-CHIP) that became law in 1997. S-CHIP
provides funding to cover 5 million children.
* As a member of the Senate Housing Subcommittee, John
Kerry has a long record of fighting for affordable
housing. He shaped the first significant rewrite of
the public housing program in over 20 years and worked
to craft and pass a bill that helped save the
government billions of dollars in rental assistance
payments, preserved thousands of affordable rental
apartments, and helped finance the rehabilitation of
those apartments. With Senator Jim Jeffords (I-VT),
John Kerry sponsored the Affordable Housing
Preservation Act to foster local partnerships between
non-profits, state and local governments, and private
landlords in order to keep existing housing projects
available and affordable for low-income tenants. He
worked to create and implement the "mark-up to market"
program and he co-authored the Affordable Housing for
Seniors and Families Act of 2000.
	 *And, of course, the most important thing about John
Kerry is he's an ICE HOCKEY PLAYER!
	 One of the most impressive things about John Kerry is
the number of times throughout his career that he's
been willing to stand up for what's right, even when
it was difficult. Time after time he's been warned he
was committing "career suicide." This is why charges
of him changing his position to fit the politics of
the day are not only unfair, but exactly the opposite
of the truth.
   For example, many people told John Kerry he could
EITHER lead the Veterans Against the War or have a
career in politics – not both. He was told to choose
one or the other. While investigating the corrupt Bank
of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI)., Kerry
was warned to back off by prominent Republicans and
Democrats including former President Jimmy Carter,
former Defense Secretary Clark Clifford, Bert lance
and even Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. His own party
refused to back him. He continued on and brought down
the bank that had laundered money and hidden
operations of international criminals, drug dealers,
intelligence agencies and terrorists.
      Senator Kerry chaired a select committee to
investigate US soldiers still missing in Vietnam. This
was considered a huge risk because at the time it was
thought the families of the missing would never be
satisfied and were looking for a scape goat,
cooperation with the Vietnamese government was
problematic and politically difficult, and political
forces at home were ready to pounce on any action the
committee took. Kerry was able to account for every
last soldier, received great praise from the families,
and help normalize relationships with Vietnam.
       Kerry's strong stance in support of
Graham-Rudman deficit reduction legislation was fought
against by many in the party who thought it would lead
to automatic cuts and Kerry was warned it would anger
his liberal base at home. He was warned it would hurt
him in his next re-election run.
	       In 2003 Kerry tried to hold President Bush
accountable for misrepresentations regarding Iraq and
the budget for the war. He voted for the second
appropriations bill ($87 billion) for the war in Iraq
when it includes a way to pay for it. When the
Republicans try to charge the cost to our children,
Kerry voted against it in an effort to hold Bush
accountable and curb the crushing national debt.
	    This is a man of principle, conviction and
substance. He truly is the real deal!

Dear undecided voter or Bush supporter,
Poll after poll shows that people who think terrorism is the most
important issue in the upcoming election also are more likely to
support G.W. Bush. People say Bush makes them feel safe. I am a
proud U.S. Army Veteran and I readily admit I'm supporting
John Kerry. I don't claim to be objective, but I really am trying to
understand this point of view. What follows is not an attack on the
President, but rather an honest attempt to understand how President
Bush makes people feel safe. Please read the following
facts (all are well documented bellow) and expert opinions. Then
explain how, in light of this clear evidence, President Bush makes
us safe.
Consider:
* 9/11 happened under President Bush's watch. I'm not claiming John
Kerry (or anyone else) would have prevented it had they been
President - we will never know. However, Bush was the President and
he did not keep us safe.
* On 9/11, George Bush's actions did not save a single life. The
brave passengers who attempted to fight the hijackers, the first
responders, and other citizens on the scenes in NYC and DC saved
lives - but Bush's actions did not. Bush did not keep us safe.
* Many people inside the CIA have publicly condemned Bush's handling
of anti-terrorism including the former heads of Counter terrorism
(Richard Clarke) and the CIA bin Laden unit (Mike Scheurer). In fact
a historical precedent was set when a high ranking, actively serving
CIA agent published a book with scathing, documented criticism of
this administration's counter terrorism efforts (Imperial Hubris" by
Anonymous).
* The CIA Al Qaeda unit is still understaffed and ineffective for
many reasons, including a hiring freeze still in effect as of
9/17/04.
* Bush did not respond to the bin Laden's bombing of the U.S.S. Cole
(which killed 17U.S. Navy sailors), because, according to
Condoleezza Rice he didn't want to "go tit for tat" and he "was
tired of swatting flies."
* According to a comprehensive report, the Bush administration has
not only failed to safeguard vulnerable terrorist targets at home,
it has actively blocked government initiatives to safeguard the most
dangerous materials that could be used in a terrorist attack.
According to the nonpartisan Working Group on Community Right-to-
Know, Bush has blocked an EPA initiative to impose security measures
for extremely hazardous chemicals stored at power plants across the
country. The report also details how opposition from chemical
manufacturers has derailed a bill in Congress (the Chemical Security
Act) designed to protect us from terrorists. Since 2000, the
chemical industry has donated more than $17 million to President
Bush and Republican congressional candidates. These companies have
also given more than $6 million in "soft money" to the Republican
National Committee.
* William Milner, the executive director of the American Public
Transportation Association, said that the nation's public transit
systems - including subways, commuter rail, buses, ferries and light
rail - need $6 billion for security improvements. Since 2001, the
Bush Administration has provided just $115 million to secure public
transit systems.
* Bush resisted the creation of the 9/11 commission and resisted
allowing Condoleezza Rice, Dick Cheney and other key administration
officials from testifying.
* The President himself refused to testify over and over, finally
agreeing to testify only with Dick Cheney by his side.
* Despite being reputed as "decisive," military experts say Bush
took too long to begin the Afghanistan campaign, giving al Qaeda
militants a chance to escape, re-arm, and prepare. We ended major
operations in Afghanistan before capturing bin Laden, completely
destroying the Taliban, and dismantling Al Qaeda - all are still
active in Afghanistan/Pakistan and world wide.
* A military think tank found that the Iraq War "accelerated
recruitment" for Al-Qaeda- an estimated 18,000 active members are
now part of this terrorist network.
* The President himself admits we are still in danger of an attack
from Afghanistan! As CNN reported on July 8, Bush administration
officials are warning that "a plot to carry out a large-scale terror
attack against the United States in the near future is being
directed by Osama bin Laden and other top al Qaeda
members. "According to the administration, these terrorists are
operating in the Afghan-Pakistan border region.
* According to NBC News, Bush in 2002 and 2003 rejected three plans
to strike terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. He told military officers
not to strike because he believed a successful strike would
undermine the public case for targeting Saddam Hussein. Since that
time Zarqawi has been responsible for bombings, beheadings and other
attacks on Americans, Iraqis and people from other nations.
* The agency (Treasury Department) entrusted with blocking the
financial resources of terrorists has assigned five times as many
agents to investigate Cuban embargo violations as it has to track
Osama bin Laden's and Saddam Hussein's money, documents show.
* Despite credible estimates from within the military command
structure (including the highest ranking officer in uniform at the
time) that a force of 300,000 troops would be needed to manage the
Iraqi war and postwar situations, Secretary of Defense Donald
Rumsfeld insisted on sending in a force of half that many, expecting
a warm reception and an easy postwar period.
* Bush opposed creation of the Dept. of Homeland Security; then
supported it when polls showed Americans wanted it.
* Things are getting worse, not better, in Iraq. 42 Americans died
in Iraq in June, 54 died in July, 66 in August and already 54
halfway through September.
* In March, Iraqi insurgents attacked our forces 700 times. In
August, they attacked 2,700 times: a 400% increase.
* Gen. Eric Shinseki was derided by Bush in 2002 for calling
for "several hundred thousand troops," but as Gen. Anthony Zinni
wrote in 2004, his view was widely shared: "Recently, the Army chief
of staff [Shinseki] testified that we would need 300,000 troops to
pacify Iraq. Everybody in the military knew he was right. But the
party line down from the Pentagon decreed that the number was half
that, and he was pilloried."
* The 9/11 Commission, which spent months exhaustively studying the
issue, concluded there was no "collaborative relationship" between
Iraq and al-Qaeda. The CIA and FBI agree with this.
* More than 2½ years after the demise of the Taliban regime,
regional warlords battle constantly over turf and narcotics
trafficking.
* The Coast Guard is still complaining it doesn't have the resources
needed to protect us from terror attacks. The Coast Guard said it
needed $8.8 billion over the next 11 years - and $1.5 billion in
immediate funding - to secure the nation's ports from terrorist
attacks. In 2005, the administration has proposed spending just $46
million total on all on port security.
* An estimated 2.5 million tons of uninspected cargo is loaded into
the bellies of passenger planes each year. Less than 5% of cargo is
physically checked. Bush has failed to designate a federal agency to
monitor the cargo or track who is sending it. The U.S.
Transportation Security Administration says it does not have "enough
money or big enough machines to scan enough cargo fast enough
without impeding commerce."
* According to the GAO, around seventy percent of all U.S. ports and
half of all ships have not even been reviewed by the federal
government. The Administration allowed industry groups to "self-
certify to the Coast Guard that they were using appropriate
standards." But every security plan the Coast Guard did review "had
deficiencies."
* The Bush Administration has not arrested a single person who
committed the Anthrax Terrorist attacks on US soil. Five people died
and several were sickened following the anthrax-by-mail attacks in
Washington, New Jersey and elsewhere - including the US Senate! We
have no clue what happened. Is Bush making us safer?
* The President and top administration officials repeatedly
stonewalled the 9/11 commission. The President is also still
refusing to release 28 pages of the bipartisan 9/11 congressional
report about the Saudi Government. That report is known to "depict a
Saudi government that not only provided significant money and aid to
the suicide hijackers but also knowingly allowed hundreds of
millions of dollars to flow to Al Qaeda". Nonetheless, the President
continues to refer to the Saudi government as "our friends."
* The President continues to withhold funding that military
officials say is desperately needed to plug shortfalls in armor and
protective equipment. And, according to a new study, those
shortfalls have meant 25% more American casualties in Iraq than if
they had the equipment.
* According to Newsweek, an unofficial study circulating through the
army shows that of the 190 soldiers killed by land mines, improvised
explosive devices, or rocket-propelled grenade attacks, "almost all
those were killed while in unprotected vehicles, which means that
perhaps one in four of those killed in combat in Iraq might be alive
if they had stronger armor around them."
* Attorney General John Ashcroft, testifying before the 9/11
Commission, has repeatedly lied to Congress about the Bush
Administration's counter-terrorism record. Specifically, when
questioned by Congress in 2002 about why he tried to de-prioritize
and slash funding for counter-terrorism before 9/11, Ashcroft
resorted to dishonest denials -- even in the face of budget
documents that proved he was not telling the truth.
Ashcroft's 'Strategic Plan' from Aug. 9, 2001, does not put fighting
terrorism as one of the department's seven goals, ranking it as a
sub-goal beneath gun violence and drugs.
* According to the Washington Post, "In the early days after the
Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the Bush White House cut by nearly two-
thirds an emergency request for counter-terrorism funds by the FBI.
The document, dated Oct. 12, 2001, shows that the FBI requested $1.5
billion in additional funds to enhance its counter-terrorism efforts
with the creation of 2,024 positions. But the White House Office of
Management and Budget cut that request to $531 million"
Ashcroft "cut the FBI's for items such as computer networking and
foreign language intercepts by half, cut a cyber request by three
quarters and eliminated entirely a request for 'collaborative
capabilities.'"
* With the release of the August 6, 2001 Presidential Daily Briefing
(PDB),DB is now clear that President Bush was personally given
information before 9/11 that warned in detail about bin Laden plans
to attack the east coast. Specifically it said there were "patterns
of suspicious activity in this country consistent with preparations
for highjackings or other types of attacks." The PDB specifically
said that terrorists had engaged in "recent surveillance of federal
buildings in New York" and that "Bin Ladin [sic] told followers he
wanted to retaliate in Washington"
* Bush's record with Veterans is different from many of his words.
He has not taken care of our veterans. Congressional Quarterly
reported on February 4th that Bush's own Secretary for Veterans
Affairs told lawmakers on Capitol Hill that the president rejected a
desperate request for $1.2 billion in funding needed for veterans'
health care. The Veterans of Foreign Wars issued a statement after
receiving the White House's budget, calling it "disgraceful" and
saying it was a "disgrace and a sham....Nothing but lip service,"
according to the Army Times.
* A report from April 2001 (four months before 9/11) shows that the
Bush Administration officially declared it "a mistake" to focus "so
much energy on Osama bin Laden." The report directly contradicts the
White House's continued assertion that fighting terrorism was
its "top priority" before the 9/11 attacks1. Specifically, on April
30, 2001, CNN reported that the Bush Administration's release of the
government's annual terrorism report contained a serious
change: "there was no extensive mention of alleged terrorist
mastermind Osama bin Laden" as there had been in previous years.
* The Associated Press reported in 2002 that "President Bush's
national security leadership met formally nearly 100 times in the
months prior to the Sept. 11 attacks yet terrorism was the topic
during only two of those sessions".
* Newsweek has reported that internal government documents show that
the Bush Administration moved to "de-emphasize" counter-terrorism
prior to 9/11. Then "FBI officials sought to add hundreds more
counterintelligence agents" to deal with the problem, "they got shot
down" by the White House.
* Bush opposed giving the 9/11 commission more time to complete its
work.
* Bush slashed funds to put 100,000 police officers the nation's
streets. $7 billion would fully fund for five years the 1996
Community Oriented Policing Services program, which was designed to
put 100,000 new community police officers on America's streets. The
administration has cut the funding for the program to $97 million in
the proposed FY05 budget.
* $2.5 billion was requested to increase funding for fire
departments. This would double the size of the Assistance to
Firefighters Grant Program for each of the next five years.
President Bush requested only $500 million for FY05, a drop from
$750 million in FY04. Money from the program goes for trucks,
protective clothing, hoses, and other equipment.
* A classified National Intelligence Estimate prepared for President
Bush in late July, 2004 spells out a dark assessment of prospects
for Iraq, government officials said Wednesday. "There's a
significant amount of pessimism," said one government official who
has read the document, which runs about 50 pages. The officials
declined to discuss the key judgments of concise, carefully written
statements of intelligence analysts' conclusions - included in the
document. The intelligence estimate, the first on Iraq since October
2002, was prepared by the National Intelligence Council and was
approved by the National Foreign Intelligence Board under John E.
McLaughlin, the acting director of central intelligence.
* Christians being persecuted in Iraq and at least 40,000 have fled
to Syria.
* General Shinseki said it would take several hundred thousand
troops to secure Iraq (which has since proven accurate). He was
forced to retire.
* Economic adviser Larry Lindsey said that Iraq would cost as much
as $200 billion (which has proved correct). He was fired.
* In February, Donald Rumsfeld said "there are over 210,000 Iraqis
serving in the security forces." When called on this he later had to
admit, "...we're training up their security forces now...about
105,000 are now properly trained and equipped." The true number
might be even less.
* A report published by the Army War College criticizes the Bush
administration's global war on terrorism as "unfocused" and contends
that the war in Iraq is "unnecessary" and a "detour" that has
diverted attention and resources from the threat posed by Al-Qaeda.
* Bush increased the out of pocket expenses retired and disabled
vets pay for health care.
* Bush cut burial support to family members of vets.
* Although the Clinton Administration's record on the prevention of
terrorism was imperfect, the 9/11 Commission and numerous
journalistic sources have pointed out that outgoing Clinton advisers
made it explicitly clear to the incoming Administration in 2000 that
Al-Qaeda presented the most significant and credible threat to our
nation's security. Indeed, Al-Qaeda had directly struck against U.S.
forces overseas, in the 1998 suicide bombings of the U.S. embassies
in Kenya and Tanzania and in the 2000 suicide attack against the
U.S.S. Cole in Yemen.
However, the Bush Administration took no serious and specific action
in response to this clear threat until after 9/11. Analysts have
suggested that it was the Bush Administration's focus on traditional
nation-state-oriented geopolitics - driven by National Security
Adviser Condie's traditional academic background, or by the
Administration's policymakers' inability to shake a Cold War
mentality that led to its inaction despite warnings by the previous
Administration.
* The Hart Rudman Report was released in January, 2001, which
predicted a catastrophic terrorist attack within the United States.
Yet the White House apparently set aside the recommendations and
announced in May that you would study the issue of domestic
terrorism. Responsibility for dealing with the problem was then
passed to the Federal Emergency Management Agency Director, Joe
Allbaugh. Congress had been willing to support the recommendations.
* Even Condie Rice admits "It mentioned hijacking, but hijacking in
the traditional sense and, in a sense, said that the most important
and most likely thing was that they would take over an airliner,
holding passengers and demand the release of one of their
operatives. And the blind sheik [Omar Abdel Rahman, serving a life
sentence for ordering a foiled plot to bomb New York landmarks] was
mentioned by name -- even though he's not an operative of Al-Qaeda --
  but as somebody who might be bargained in this way.
* On July 5th, 2001 Clarke summoned all the domestic security
agencies --the Federal Aviation Administration, the Coast Guard,
Customs, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, and the F.B.I.--
and told them to increase their security in light of an impending
attack."

WHAT FOLLOWS NOW ARE DIRECT, DOCUMENTED QUOTES, SOME
OF WHICH CONTAIN THE OPINIONS OF THE EXPERTS SPEAKING:

* "Frankly," Richard Clarke said, "I find it outrageous that the
president is running for re-election on the grounds that he's done
such great things about terrorism. He ignored it. He ignored
terrorism for months, when maybe we could have done something to
stop 9/11. Maybe. We'll never know." Clarke went on to say, "I think
he's done a terrible job on the war against terrorism."
* Retired U.S. Marine Corps Gen. Anthony Zinni, who now teaches
international relations at the College of William and Mary: "There
has been poor strategic thinking in this (Iraq)..." There has been
poor operational planning and execution on the ground. And to think
that we are going to `stay the course,' the course is headed over
Niagara Falls. I think it's time to change course... because it's
been a failure. In the lead up to the Iraq war and its later
conduct, I saw at a minimum, true dereliction, negligence and
irresponsibility, at worse, lying, incompetence and corruption."
(Comments on 60 Minutes TV interview)
* Even top Republicans are admitting Bush horribly mismanaged Iraqi
war. For example: Senator Chuck Hagel (NE), a Republican, says: "The
worst thing we can do is hold ourselves hostage to some grand
illusion that we're winning. Right now, we are not winning. Things
are getting worse. The fact is, we're in trouble. We're in deep
trouble in Iraq."
* Sen. John McCain (R-AZ): "We made serious mistakes right after the
initial successes by not having enough troops there on the ground,
by allowing the looting, by not securing the borders."
* Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): "...the administration has done a poor
job of implementing and adjusting at times."
* Senator Richard Lugar (R-IN): "... it's exasperating for anybody
look at this from any vantage point."
* Retired general William Odom, former head of the National Security
Agency: "Right now, the course we're on, we're achieving Bin Laden's
ends...This is far graver than Vietnam."
* Retired general Joseph Hoare, the former marine commandant and
head of US Central Command, [said]: "The idea that this is going to
go the way these guys planned is ludicrous. There are no good
options.... The priorities are just all wrong."
* Jeffrey Record, professor of strategy at the Air War College,
said: "I see no ray of light on the horizon at all. The worst case
has become true..."
* "Well the war really had absolutely nothing to do with terrorism,
there was no connection whatsoever between Iraq and the secular
regime there and the religious fanatics who perpetrated 9/11." Chas
Freeman,former Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, currently the President
of the Middle East Policy Council, former Assistant Secretary of
Defense.
* Richard Clarke: "They wanted to believe that there was a
connection but the CIA was sitting there, the FBI was sitting there,
I was sitting there saying 'We've looked at this issue for years,
there's just no connection.'"
* "The ties with Al Qaeda was just a scare tactic to exploit the
trauma, the very real trauma, that the American people have felt
ever since 9/11 and to associate that trauma with Iraq. As you know
from the polls, most Americans believed that Iraq had something to
do with 9/11 and that was a very successful and very deliberate and
very unethical and immoral operation on the part of the P.R. people
of this administration." Ray McGovern, CIA analyst from 1964 to
1990, currently a member of the steering group of Veteran
Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) which is a non-partisan
group of retired intelligence professionals and co-director of the
Servant Leadership School, an inner-city outreach ministry in
Washington.
* Doug Bandow (Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute, author and
former Special Assistant to President Ronald Reagan): "The President
and his supporters have never accepted his responsibility... Once
having conquered Iraq, the administration proceeded to bungle
virtually every major decision."
* "George Tenet's analysts had spent a year and a half of torturous
investigation, torturous analysis, to see if there were ties between
Al Qaeda and Iraq. They found none." Ray McGovern
* "We all know that the documentation on yellowcake from Niger was
faked, but why doesn't anybody say who did it? Who faked the
document... The question remains, who did the document? Who forged
the document? And why?" - Milt Bearden, one of the CIA' most highly
decorated operations officers in its Senior Service and retired
after 30 years. He was the CIA station chief in Pakistan and was
responsible for that agency's covert action program in support of
the Afghan resistance to the Soviet-supported government. Bearden
served in the Air Force before joining the CIA.
* "The inspection regime worked. It was the most intrusive
inspection regime in history and it worked. And at the end of the
day that's another reason we went to war for nothing." Patrick
Eddington, former CIA imagery analyst, and is currently a private
researcher, author, and international security consultant.
* Even top Republicans are frustrated with Bush's inadequate war
plan. "The fact is, we're in deep trouble in Iraq ... and I think
we're going to have to look at some recalibration of policy,"
Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel (news, bio, voting record) of Nebraska
said on CBS's "Face the Nation." "We made serious mistakes," said
Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record), an Arizona Republican
who has campaigned at Bush's side this year after patching up a
bitter rivalry. Only $1 billion of $18.4 billion allocated by
Congress for the task has been spent, Lugar said. "This is the
incompetence in the administration," he said on ABC's "This Week."
Sen. John Kyl, like McCain an Arizona Republican, said, "Allowing
the Iraqis to make the decisions not to go into some of these
sanctuaries, I think, turns out to have not been a good decision,
which we're going to have to correct now by going in with our
Marines and Army divisions."

Hi, if you're a big fan of smooth jazz like me, check out Dave Koz's
brand new website,  www.RadioKoz.com.  It's his syndicated radio
show, 24 hours a day on the web.  Now I can listen at work since
there's no station in my city that plays his music...as well as Kenny
G, Boney James, Brian Culbertson, Peter White, Jeff Golub, etc.
