In this two parts series talk show, we talked about the 9/11 catastrophe and the history that led up to it. The talk includes who started Al-Qaeda, how did Bin Ladin got involved, the 9/11 commission report, Dick Cheney, President George Bush, and many...

Now, having heard Lt. Col. Shaffer's comments on radio interviews from three different shows, it's obvious to me that this AD group was trying to do their job, had reason to suspect Atta's cell should be looked into because of the Alquaida connection, and got stonewalled because of administrative policy which claimed to be implementing the inability to share military data with the FBI to protect civil rights. Oh, sure! This merely fostered an opportunity for foreigners to opperate without fear of being looked at closer. While that may not be directly enabling the Jihad of 9/11, it certainly appears to be indirectly doing that.

Of course, what most who are sharing their viewpoints about this whole issue aren't including with the larger picture regarding the terrorist threat is that Clinton testified before the Grand Jury that he'd been offered OBL by the Sudaneese govt. a couple of times, but didn't believe he had any legal premise to do so. If that isn't a perfect illustration of failure to uphold his oath of office, which includes national security, I don't know what is.

Liberals who find themselves in positions within an administration are placed there because they're smart, smart enough to know they need to cover their "tracks" should any fall-out arise later on. Clinton is notorious for this; the rest follow by example.

Of course, the Republican politician is just as skilled as the Democrat ones are; it's just the game of being a politician who, first and foremost, looks out for their political career, while perpetuating the image that they have our well being in mind while making sure they leave office in a position to benefit themselves. Yes, as far as I'm concerned, there are no more elected officials at the federal level who, through their political career are there strictly for the good of the country over their own well being.

Cynical? Maybe, naive' NO!

No. This is purely coincidence. One's got nothing to do with the other. And neither has anything to do with that guy over there who stuffed national security documents in his pants by accident. Our government officials have the highest integrity. They are unwilling to criticize a sitting President in wartime. They don't put their own interests in front of the interests of the American people. They live lives exclusively devoted to serving the public. There just is not any motivation to do anything dishonest.

One more thing about the Sep. 11 Commission report: my praise for it was for its depiction of how events...

It was the "wall," created by Jamie Gorelick.

Does this make her the 20th hijacker? Don't be silly, Anderson, and no one is making that claim.

But it does mean that policies were put in place during the previous administration which hampered the ability of the US Government to counter the threat.

What does this do to the argument that the Clinton administration had "done everything it could" to fight terrorism?

Does this explain why Sandy Berger decided to steal classified documents and specifically destroy some of them?

And if the staff could conclude that "Able Danger" information was irrelevant to the investigation because it didn't fit preconceived notions, to the point that they didn't even forward it to the Commission itself, does this mean that the staff lied?

After all, the Left has been remarkably glib with the word "lied" when describing how the Administration, by refusing to seek out and listen to contradictory evidence, had in effect "lied."

Goose, gander and all that....

Bipartisan doesn’t mean objective and competent. . . . Bipartisan to me means, partisan as hell on both sides.

Quite possibly. But what that does is remove the tendency to hide things that might embarrass one side or the other.

Sorry for those of you who think Gorelick was the 20th hijacker.

ONE BIG WHITEWASH

The American taxpayer has been taken to the cleaners again, and what more could one expect from politicians
