Alcee Hastings: “The President did not know September 11 was going to occur. For God's sake, he is a Texan. Have you ever seen a Texan…”

“The President did not know September 11 was going to occur. For God's sake, he is a Texan. Have you ever seen a Texan that knew a fight was coming that did not stand up to give the first slug? He did not sit there. He did not have the information September 11 was going to happen. Now, we all wish that our intelligence network would have been better, and it is always easy, it is always easy after a fire to figure out where the fire trucks should be, and it has never failed. I used to be a police officer, and I can tell you every serious crime I ever investigated, I would have people come up as we were doing the investigation that would say, you know, I told them there was going to be a murder over here in this neighborhood.”
