Condi Rice uses the Gilligan defense


Rice: No memory of CIA warning of attack

Condoleezza Rice said she cannot recall then- CIA chief George Tenet warning her of an impending al-Qaida attack in the United States, as a new book claims he did two months before the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.

"What I am quite certain of is that I would remember if I was told, as this account apparently says, that there was about to be an attack in the United States, and the idea that I would somehow have ignored that I find incomprehensible," Rice said.
Rice was President Bush's national security adviser in 2001, when Bob Woodward's book "State of Denial" outlines a July 10 meeting among Rice, Tenet and the CIA's top counterterror officer.
"I don't know that this meeting took place, but what I really don't know, what I'm quite certain of, is that it was not a meeting in which I was told there was an impending attack and I refused to respond," Rice said. More on the story

Seems as though that there is something floating in the water in the White House of loss of memory. First, Libby and now it is Condi...

Can you say, "Monday morning quarterback"? Funny how, AFTER THE FACT, everyone and their dog is coming out of the woodwork claiming to have told So-And-So that we were about to attacked, or that there was impending doom.

As a matter of fact, I think I recall telling the President himself that on October 5th, 2004, he'd have a WICKED case of hemorrhoids. Did he listen to me? I think not! BASTARD!!! I think there needs to be an inquiry into his lack of action in regards to my hemorrhoid memo.

All of the lies that White House have been telling the public are now being exposed and they will get caught. I think the American people have caught on to their lies.

i'm not denying that the current admin hasn't lied. that would be asinine of me. i am, however, intrigued by just how many libs are coming out of the woodwork POST (insert-political-event-here) and nay saying. it's really easy to blow holes in the administration AFTER they make a mistake.
