Rumsfeld sounds like Andrew Ridgely explaining his contribution to Wham...

Rumsfeld expects more 'successful attacks'
Preventing 9/11 would have been 'big order,' he adds

Without directly assigning blame to the CIA, whose director, George Tenet, resigned on Thursday and will leave in July, Rumsfeld posed the question, “Is it a terrible failure that we did not” have sufficiently good intelligence to stop the worst terrorist attack ever on American soil?

His answer was that it simply is not possible to prevent every conceivable attack, and that is why the United States has taken a more aggressive approach to disrupting terrorists before they strike.

“We have to be realistic and expect that there will be additional successful attacks,” he said during a question-and-answer session with several hundred sailors and Marines aboard the USS Essex, a helicopter carrier in port at Singapore with several other ships of the Essex strike group.

“We lacked the intelligence that might have prevented it,” he said, citing testimony given to the commission. “That is to say, we did not have a source inside the group of people that had planned and executed those attacks ... Had we had a source inside there we undoubtedly would have been able to stop it. We did not. It would have been terrific if we had.”

Hey Rummy...wake me up before you go-go, OK?

...and we WILL be there to STOP you!"
