The upside to all of this - Bush and co. have brought the fight to the enemy and radical islamists are being killed on a daily basis.
You may need to get some facts straight about what occurred and did not occur vis-a-vis the White House Commission on Aviation Safety & Security. The campaign financing you claim had an influence on aviation security via the Clinton-Gore campagin is a claim with very, very limited substance.
[Look at the timing of the final report for one of many indicators of your errors.]
Furthermore, at the time of the 9/11 attacks, are we certain that the "box cutters" allegedly used were not permissible to pass the security checkpoints?
We do know that standard training for most people in the aviation industry at the time was to fully cooperate with hijackers. We know what that led to.
