I would agree that as President of the USA mistakes have far reaching consequences.
I'm not so sure I can agree about the quality of the Intel. Satelites may be able to pick up fleas on a dog. But, seeing what is inside a truck, or building is a differant story. Pictures can tell us where the troops are but no what the intent of the troops. Then there is the politics, not the Rep-Dem type, but the office politics that goes on in any orginization. The CIA is pushing for one thing the NSA, DoD intel another. Each wants to be the goldenboy so they get more money out of the budget or glory for themselves. Look at Richard Clarke, right after the Clinton administation left office he was telling anybody that would listen that he was the only one paying attention to what Al Queada was doing, Then the poop hits the fan. He turns around and say he was the only one in the Bush Administration that was paying attention to Al Queada, and the Clinton Administration was doing a good job. On top of that add the preasure from the Why didn't we connect the dots, crowd. And the fact that since the dots weren't connected and 3,000 people died, there is going to be a whole lot of folks connecting dots that don't go together. The whole thing is a "Charlie Foxtrot"
I believe there will be an accountability, but do to the ban on, why I believe it to be true, that's all I can say on the matter.
