Five impolite questions for the president
By DON WILLIAMS
January 9, 2004

>snip>

Dear Mr. President: If I knew you were reading this, I'd be grateful and surprised. You've been quoted as saying you don't read negative press. Recent reports suggest that your handlers arrange public appearances so that you seldom even see protesters against your policies.

Still, should this find its way to your eyes, I have five impolite questions, along with a few follow-ups.

*Why won't you tell us about those daily briefings you received in the nine months or so leading up to Sept. 11, 2001? Why won't you answer charges by Robert Kean, the former New Jersey Republican governor you appointed to investigate 9-11, that your administration had ample warning that terrorists were capable of flying aircraft into buildings and had been discussing such actions for a decade? If you need a refresher, Mr. President, check out the story by CBS News Correspondent Randall Pinkston located on the CBSNews.com homepage for Dec. 17, 2003. Kean's charges are spelled out there.

-MORE-

These questions need to be asked and answered BEFORE the election. Democratic candidates need to pound this jackass on these issues.
