Hillary Demands 'Immediate' Answers on Bush 9-11 Heads Up
Newsmax ^ | 5/16/02 | Carl Limbacher

In the clearest sign yet that Democrats intend to make political hay over the news that President Bush received a pre-9-11 CIA warning about possible al Qaeda airline hijackings, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton suggested Thursday that it was time for the White House to come clean.

"Clearly the public demands answers immediately," she told reporters, adding, "The people of New York deserve those answers more than anyone."

Clinton complained that the Bush administration had taken over eight months reveal the CIA briefing, and advised that the Bush administration should release all relevant information without further delay.

"I believe that getting the facts out would be the very best response to this troubling news," she urged.

Mrs. Clinton wasn't asked about claims from former officials of her husband's administration who have told reporters that he ignored repeated warnings of al Qaeda terrorist activity against the U.S., including a 1995 plot to hijack a dozen airliners and crash them into U.S. office buildings.

This is what "changing the tone" and "moving on" has wrought......
Hillary! Clinton lecturing the Bush White House to "come clean".
It would be funny if it weren't such a pathetic example of how inept the GOP is at bare knuckle politics. We had better learn fast how to play to win.

Since when is Bush's "tone" or the GOP responsible for the continuing stream of foolish and hysterical comments from Hitlary?

"The people of New York deserve those answers more than anyone."

The people of New York owes the rest of the country an apology for putting this witch in office. What action did she take when she was briefed on Monica?

Trouble is that the Clintonites "borroed in" that is in the last year got civil service jobs and are thus protected from being fired. Most have bosses of like mind and are only too happy to leak info to damage Bush. We will see many more things like this dribble out over his term so that the Sheeple get the impression of incompetence. Wait for the right time, just like his DWI in the last days of the election.

FNC mentioned this morning that the former First B*tch has put on forty pounds. Is that why we haven't seen any recent pictures of her?

Someone tell the witch hitlery to shuddup.

Now that I have read the facts on this I say President Bush needs to get to the bottom of this.It looks like the FBI's fault and I am sick of the FBI screwing up.So the President needs to do something big time to clean up the FBI from top to bottom.HEAD'S NEED TO ROLL AT THE FBI-publically and privately.

If anyone tells me the main stream press are not liberal I'll laugh in their face! Just look at the headline-Bush knew about 9/11 Hijackers- Then at the bottom of the story-of course he new nothing about using the planes as missiles. How many people in this country will get beyond the headline? I despise the Democrats and their minions in the press. Bush has to fight back now! He can do it! No more Mr.Nice Guy. I think Bush has enough of his mother in him to smash Hillary.

There were people in the Nat Guard that were called up on the Saturday before 9-11. Why? This whole things really stinks. No reson why those planes were not scrambled in the amount of time. Remember the golfer, Payne Steward's plane. They were there in a heartbeat? Again, sometime isn't right in Washington DC. Same old "Two-Party Cartel" passing nothing but liberal agenda & no opposition. We conservatives have really been had - big time.

It is inexcusable for the President to not have told us this prior, to have to have his hand forced by investigators, in order to attempt some damage control, all the while he has been miling the 9/11 tragedy for his own and the GOP's benefits.

Your recollection is faulty. Travel warnings *were* broadcast two or three days before 9/11. As broadcast, the warnings were directed to Americans at home and abroad. NOBODY had any information that aircraft were going to be flown into office buildings. If you have proof of such information, I'm certain that Rep. McKinney would reward you handsomely.

You government (and Bush) apologists ought to be ashamed of yourselves. If the administration doesn't step up to the plate on this one they will get smashed in 02 and 04.

Peddle your "Shame on you" garbage elsewhere. Your last sentence indicates that you atleast understand what is driving this. As to the rest of your post... physician, heal thyself.

"Clearly the public demands answers immediately,"

I'm so glad that her and her hubby were so forthcoming during their eight years in the White House.

The "new tone" has served only to revise or ignore the crimes of the clinton administration.
Mrs. Clinton should be too busy planning her legal defense to be shooting her mouth off about Bush "coming clean".
Instead, the pass she and BJ got has only emboldened them. They will NEVER go away voluntarily.

I would ask Hil how much of the FBI and CIA were left-overs from the Clinton administration in that it would seem that these career spooks should have been the ones that put two and two together. And how well manned were these staffs.

You should ask how many career spooks had been forced into early retirement by downsizing and reorganizations and attempts to get rid of people on the old Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), and what effect this all had on morale and effectiveness.
