...actually, this story has been around for several months now. Sadly, it's gotten little to no air-time except on Fox News and a few conservatives BLOGs and radio shows.

This entire saga displays just how pathetic our leadership is -- they STILL find saving face more important than national security. The DoD, CIA, and Pentagon (not to mention the 9/11 Commission and other government members) are obstructing this investigation using every avenue available to them.

And it also shows just how teflon our former president is. His administration blocks the information simply because they're worried about bad PR!!!! Then this ending comment by Erik Kliensmith (ordered to destroy all 1.5 Terrabytes of Able Danger data):

"Could we have prevented 9/11?"

Hell Yes. Atta was singularly responsible for selecting the date of the attacks because he was afraid US intelligence was on to him and may block their attempts.... He was the point man, essentially, and to have captured him in late 2000 would have been to throw a serious monkey wrench into al qaida's plans.
