RECEIVED Fri., April 9, 2004

Dear Editor,
   The September 11 commission is investigating the events leading up to the tragedy in order to prevent future attacks. President Bush, who initially opposed even creating the commission, has stonewalled its work at every turn.
   The White House has deliberately withheld information from the commission. It has played games with deadlines and has placed the blame on the previous administration. It has tried to limit the testimony from administration officials and even the time the president himself spends with the commissioners.
   It was recently revealed (in a previously classified document) that on Aug. 6, 2001, President Bush received a briefing titled, "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States." But Bush spent the month of August on vacation at his ranch.
   It is time for President Bush to stop the games and stop the stonewall. The security of the American people is at stake. It's time for some honest answers from President Bush.
Sincerely,
Randy Case
