No, I didn't know what you meant. Sorry.

Yes - many, many Iraq/AQ links. The administation is making a huge mistake not discussing them every single day.

Suggestion - send e-mails to the White House, RNC, Karen Hughes, Carl Rove, etc. suggesting they talk about the links.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have assumed you knew what I meant.

Here's an e-mail I sent to Ed Gillespie @ the RNC.

An idea: Publish a timeline that shows exactly what President Bush's administration did to fight terrorism during the nine months prior to 9/11. Use some of the data contained in Clarke's 2002 background interview and his e-mail to Dr. Rice. List the date next to each action, each meeting and each directive. Include the call to the President of Pakistan, the order to increase spending on covert actions, the "let's stop swatting flies" meeting, the order to establish a comprehensive plan, the order to eliminate vs. roll back Al Queda, the warning issued to law enforcement in the summer of 2001, the arrival of the comprehensive report to the President just before September 11, etc.

I believe that if you were to put the actions taken by the President, Dr. Rice, Mr. Clark, Secretaries Powell and Rumsfeld, etc. on a timeline, it would be clear to the public that they were on the job, seeking to protect America.

The contrast between the President's actions and the "plan" that Mr. Clark said was on the table for two years during the Clinton administration will be stark.

A good question to ask is "If the President and his staff hadn't been working on a comprehensive plan before attacks, how much longer would it have taken us to respond?" (militarily, financially, diplomatically...)
