Why where al-Qaeda agents, linked to the Chechen group that attacked the USS Cole allowed visas and were able to live openly and enter and leave the States at will during Clinton's presidency?

Accuracy In Media has a hypothesis which they call Clinton's BIN LADEN GATE.

Maybe if the Clinton Administration had allowed the transition team to take over when they are supposed to, and the lefty Senators would have approved Ashcroft instead of requiring him to spend his first two months after nomination preparing for hearings rather than focusing on preparing for office , these agencies might have gotten more attention sooner.

people think those political games are just part of the system, but it cost us dearly.

It's a matter of priority and integrity on the part of those in power now. Not who used to be in power. As soon as GWB entered office his first priority was to campaign around the country, promising government money to everyone in exchange for votes in the next election. He should've been using his veto power to close useless and wasteful government agencies, streamline the federal government, and weed out waste and incompetence so the federal government could properly do its #1 job -- protect the people and property of the US.

Maybe because it wasn't in the CIA's legislative authority to do so?

Incredible...these CIA/FBI directors and managers should be offered "hemlock".

Does everybody have amnesia? KLINTOON wasn't interested in going after Al Quaeda. KLINTOON sided with the UBL-linked MUSLIMS in the BOSNIAN WAR. KLINTOON learned nothing form the '93 bombing of the WTC. This is where the "what did he know and when did he know it" should start. We sent troops in to fight with the Muslims in Bosnia, right? Despite their UBL links - unbelievable.

I hear this report and I'm in pain. An NBC new report said that when the CIA finally decided to let the FBI in on this info (3 weeks before 9-11) they are looking for these guy in hotel rooms and the like. One of them had his name in a public phone directory, but the investigative resources of the FBICIA could not discover this.
