The 9/11 Commission Report is now in print.
The Story
According to sources, the report seems to be an unbiased piece that doesn't point fingers to any paticular individual. It doesn't blame Bush, Clinton or the tooth fairy.
Instead, the report suggests our own imaginations (or lack thereof) are to blame.
What do you think?

While faulting institutional shortcomings, the report does not blame President Bush or former President Clinton for mistakes contributing to the 2001 attack.
The panel also determined the "most important failure" leading to the Sept. 11 attacks "was one of imagination. We do not believe leaders understood the gravity of the threat."
What do you think?

Basically...
Pretty much nothing we didn't already know. Nobody was blamed except for our unwillingness to accept a terrorist strike and the known faults of our security agencies. And that Iraq was in bed with al Qaeda from the start but it wasn't as strong of a link as everyone assumed.
That said, can you imagine reading the entire 567 page report without contemplating cutting your wrists?

After reading some of the report and seeing some of the video I am extremely upset. Did you guys know that 4 of the terrorists went thru airport security and had the metal detectors GO OFF! only to be waved through without being checked? Or that one of the Terrorists got on the plane WITHOUT any form of photo identification? OMG WTF!!!!
I cannot beleive this crap. I couldn't get on a plane without photo ID and a middle easterner that is on the terror watchlist gets on without ID!!!!
