Which seems more likely - she completely forgot about 9/11, or she simply misspoke, intending to say that after 9/11, we did not have a terrorist attack on our country's soil?

Thank god you and MediaMatters are here to alert us to these critically important minor gaffes made by former press secretaries.

Wow, using terrorist attacks as the barometer? In the first place you guys screwed up alot in not proacting. Homeland Security was set up after 9/11.

RightWingNYC, how nice of you to make excuses for her, FOX and its guess are known for this and Hannity didn't even try to correct her...how about the Anthrax attack weeks after 9/11. The D.C. Sniper...by her own words that is terrorism....it well known they found tons a literature that Malvo was launching Jihad against the U.S. And we won't even begin to outline all the school shooting over the last 8 years. Funny when they caught the DC sniper none of the Rep. claimed it amounts to terrorism.

This is common tactics from FOX and their guest, lie cheat steal to get your point across...bunch of clowns!

I think it was more innocent than that. They have constantly paraded the fact that we had not had another like-minded attack on our country since 9/11. I would not be surprised if it just went past their radar by accident.

You care to cite the school shooting in the last 8 Years.

As for the Anthrax it was proven to be a work of a Nutt Job with-in the United State who was Pissed Off at the Govn.

As for the DC Snipper I suggest you need to go and read the Court Transcript before you start making comments till then run along.

As for Fox lieing and cheating yea sure and NBC and ABC never do that correct.
