I want to know how and why this story (ies) isn't incompetence on the part of the Bush Administration?

Since G-Man brought it up that it was belittling..... I thought it was a rather fair assessment of the evidence presented. If it's not incompetence, then please enlighten me.

I never got any response one way or another on this subject from G-man. And as I respect the creativity of his slant on things, I'd like to hear this one.
