The Lesson of 9/11 Is a Warning That Biden's Declining Physical and Mental Ability Could Get People Killed

An old saying among the holders of our nation’s classified secrets sums it up: “You can lead policymakers to intelligence, but you can’t make them think.”
Enter President Joe Biden. A president who has taken more vacation days to recover from fewer hours worked than any president in living memory. A man who is the barely breathing role model for the 4-day 32-hour work week that socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders is now advocating. A man who, in rambling, almost incoherent appearances with other national leaders, keeps referring to his aides as the people telling him what to do.
Joe Biden’s cognitive ability, never great, has declined over the last year to the point where even many Democrats are admitting he is too old to do the job. His insurance policy has been Vice President Kamala Harris, whose flitting forays onto the national stage have only served to highlight that Joe Biden is the brains of the operation.
With that ultimate sense of self-preservation that comes with advanced age, Biden chose his vice president wisely. But how long can the country be run by some hidden Committee of Public Safety? Clearly, we have learned very little from the failure to lead and communicate that led to 9/11.
The terrorists exploited the failure of the Clinton administration to act on intelligence it received. For one, they chose not to kill Osama Bin Laden when they had him in their sights, and secondly, they did not take the hijacking scenario seriously enough to make needed safety changes in air travel. Seven months into the Bush administration, intelligence warnings again said that Bin Laden was back and ready to act on the hijacking plan outlined two years earlier.
