Bob Woodward's book State of Denial broke the news that the 9/11 Commission was not given any details about an apparently crucial July 10, 2001 meeting.
The July 10 meeting between Tenet, Black and Rice went unmentioned in the various reports of investigations into the Sept. 11 attacks, but it stood out in the minds of Tenet and Black as the starkest warning they had given the White House on bin Laden and al-Qaeda.
WH press secretary Tony Snow confirmed on Monday that the meeting did take place, but Rice is claiming that she doesn't even remember such a meeting:
Rice said she had no specific recollection of the meeting, stressed that the threat reporting at the time was about potential attacks abroad rather than at home, and denied she was given a warning of a possible strike on the United States.
"I don't know that this meeting took place ... what I am quite certain of is that (it) was not a meeting in which I was told that there was an impending attack and I refused to respond," Rice told reporters as she flew to the Middle East.
"I would remember if I was told, as this account apparently says, that there was about to be an attack in the United States. And the idea that I would somehow have ignored that, I find, incomprehensible," Rice added.
If she doesn't know that the meeting even happened, how can she be so sure of what she was told?
Busted.
And the idea that she would have ignored such strong warnings is most definitely comprehensible considering that she called the August, 2001 PDB titled 'bin Laden Determined to Strike in United States' a 'historical document' and did nothing about its contents.
Pathological liars. Every last one of them.
