WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The CIA told President Bush and his senior

commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks.

"During the summer of 2001 the volume of intelligence about threats
grew alarming. "By late July, there were indications of multiple,
possibly catastrophic, terrorist attacks being planned against
American interests overseas," the national commission's staff report
said."

Key word is "overseas," and this was reinforced by Tenet today.

Okay, let me get this straight. In your mind, Bush was right to not
worry about "american interests overseas"? BUT, he is right to go
"overseas" to Iraq, for (insert latest lying reason here)?

Basskisser, give the president a break, will ya? He's a bit challenged with
regard to geography, in general, and the word "overseas" specifically:
