Able Danger failed because of Bush
Whenever they bring up Able Danger, they only bring it up in the time frame when Clinton was President.

When was Able Danger stopped?

In February of 2001, WHEN BUSH BECAME PRESIDENT.

Why wasn't Able Danger brought up in the 9/11 Commission?

Because a man named Philip Zelikow was the Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission.

Zelikow was also a member of the Bush Team. (I see some Conflict of Interests here)

What?!

Zelikow was also briefed several times by Clinton's officials.

What?!

So, even though the RW'ers keep on blaming 9/11 on Clinton, it looks as though Bush also had the chance to prevent 9/11, but unlike Clinton, he had axed the programs necessary to do this, only to recreate them and also make them more intrusive after 9/11.

Thanks RW'ers, your constant pushing of Able Danger has caused me to mark up another tally for LIHOP/MIHOP.

4. Looks like the GOP is running scared and projecting their guilt onto
Clinton again.
