Updated at 10;45 p.m. Monday October 2nd. The New york Times is reporting that Coni has confirmed the meeting took place and that the september 11 Commission was informed of it from the testimony of Mr. Tenet - complete with the PowerPoints he used to brief Condi.

They have run out of excuses. Click the link to see a comprehensive list of unheeded warnings.
