"All right. You've covered your ass, now."


Dan Froomkin talks about Ron Suskind’s new book about the Administration and includes an excerpt from a review:

"The book's opening anecdote tells of an unnamed CIA briefer who flew to Bush's Texas ranch during the scary summer of 2001, amid a flurry of reports of a pending al-Qaeda attack, to call the president's attention personally to the now-famous Aug. 6, 2001, memo titled 'Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in US.' Bush reportedly heard the briefer out and replied: 'All right. You've covered your ass, now.' "

Looks like I have a new book to read…
