"President Receives 9/11 Report"

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush praised as "very constructive" the recommendations in a new report Thursday on intelligence failures that led to Sept. 11, though his administration has reacted coolly toward a central proposal to establish a Cabinet-level national intelligence director.

Thomas H. Kean, Republican chairman, and Lee H. Hamilton, Democratic vice chairman, formally handed a copy of the independent commission's report in a Rose Garden ceremony. Bush had fought the creation of the panel, resisted the release of documents and battled against letting national security adviser Condoleezza Rice address the panel. But he embraced its work Thursday.

Bush called the report's recommendations "very constructive" and said the commission had "done a really good job of learning about our country, learning what went wrong prior to Sept. 11 and making very solid, sound recommendations about how to move forward."

"I assured them that where government needs to act, we will," Bush said.
