Gorelick had the unmitigated gall to come on cable news programs a week or so ago and say that the problem was the wall between intelligence and the FBI but that the Klintoon administration allowed sharing of information during the so-called Y2K *crisis", leaving an inference that Y2K was a 9/11-type event that Slick Willie's hawks dismantled. Y2K was a computer scare, not a terrorist scare, beyond the usual Times Square babble. She is absolutely complicit in the scheme to control the FBI and the intelligence community which she herself identified as problematic on national TV.
My hat is off to James Sensenbrenner for coming on Fox and MSNBC to call for her resignation tonight, and to John Ashcroft for de-classifying the smoking gun.
You misunderstood re Y2K - they are talking about the millenium bombing plot; however, their reaction is the same, to try and persuade people they should get credit for something a good customs agent on pure luck helped uncover.
Here is most incredible NEWS I find here:
In case anyone was in doubt, Janet Reno herself affirmed the policy several months later in a July 19, 1995, memo that we have unearthed. In it, the then-Attorney General instructs all U.S. Attorneys about avoiding "the appearance" of overlap between intelligence-related activities and law-enforcement operations.
Janet Reno just testified she didn't know about Gorelick's wall!
