IMO, we should blame the successive governments since Carter that have gutted the CIA to the point where they can't even collect intelligence by sending people into the field.
And all of those things are meaningless to this discussion.

I don't know how many times I have to repeat myself.

I'm looking for examples of threads against Bush that were as inane as this one. The best someone could come up with is "Bush went on a golf vacation prior to 9/11". I think that given the memo he was given just prior to his golf vacation that was worse judgement than "going to a play during a recession". It doesn't matter what happened in the decades prior. I think concern regarding a president going on vacation just after getting a memo about a determined terrorist attack is more newsworthy than a president going on a trip to New York during a recession.
