All of a sudden -- surprise, surprise -- as revelations come out revealing Bush's
negligence, inattentiveness, and incompetence as he took a month-long vacation in
Texas just before September 11th, well, lo-and-behold "administration claims" that
there is "chatter" indicating a big Al-Qaeda attack.
In Grand Hypocrisy Party politics, timing is everything. Of course, on Sunday we will
hear Dick Cheney braying like a donkey that Democrats are risking facilitating
terrorists if they investigate the Bush administration 9/11 terrorists. If experience
is any guide, it will be enough to send the Democrats back into their corners, afraid
to show any profiles in courage.

"WASHINGTON, May 18 American intelligence agencies have intercepted a vague yet
troubling series of communications among Al Qaeda operatives over the last few months
indicating that the terrorist organization is trying to carry out an operation as big
as or bigger than the Sept. 11 attacks, according to intelligence and law enforcement
officials.

But just as last summer's threats left counterterrorism analysts guessing about Al
Qaeda's intentions, and believing that the attack might be carried out overseas, the
new interceptions are so general that they have left President Bush (news - web sites)
and his counterterrorism team in the dark about the time, place or method of what some
officials refer to as a second-wave attack. As a result, the government is essentially
limited to taking broad defensive measures.
"It's again not specific not specific as to time, not specific as to place," one
senior administration official said."
BuzzFlash Note: In short, the information is vague and useless, except to provide some
cowardly cover for Bush.
