Let's See if Obama Will Blame This on George W. Bush Too

Because if he blamed Bush for helping keep us safe since 9/11/01, he'd be right.  From Washington Whispers:

On the eve of the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks that killed nearly 3,000 Americans and sparked two wars, former President George W. Bush is drawing attention to the fact that the nation has not suffered another deadly attack and he's thanking the military and secret agents who've kept that record—most of which occurred under his watch—unblemished.

In an emotional letter that recalls the horrific day and efforts to tighten security around the nation, Bush wrote: "I vowed that I would never forget the wounds from that day. Our country was attacked with deliberate and massive cruelty because we are freedom's home and defender. In our grief and anger, we found our mission and our moment. We used all elements of our national power to keep America safe at home by taking the fight to the enemy abroad and promoting liberty as an alternative to terror. Nine years after September 11, our safety from terrorism on our soil is a tribute to the dedicated men and women in our intelligence services and the military who work day and night to defend our great land."

The letter was sent to the former CIA official Rob Richer and his wife Kim who are about to start a bicycle trip across the nation dubbed "Pedaling for Patriots" to raise funds for the CIA Officers Memorial Foundation.
