You passed up an opportunity to reply to facts, instead attempting weak invective.

Did Rice say that she saw reports of Middle Easterners learning, in the US, to fly, but not take off or land, large airliners?

Did she say that those reports didn't rise a level of concern sufficient to warrant further investigation?

Did Rice say that no one had thought of the possibility of terrorists flying large airplanes into buildings?

Did Rice parrot the party line on Iraqi WMDs, a line which was not based upon facts and which was in error?

And last, is it reasonable to expect the NSA to be worried about foreigners hijacking airplanes in the US, to investigate reports of foreigners training to do so, to be aware of terrorist methods which have been previously publicized, and to make judgements based at least partially on facts?

"screw them or worse" seems to be inspired by Rice's level discourse, being based neither on fact or reason as it is.
