And certainly making an ass out of himself this morning with Charlie Gibson while ten or more miners sat behind him isn't sitting too well. But then I have to ask, is he even aware of what a fop (my new word for the week) he is?
UT and ds, this is soooo good... I watched Wolfe Blitzer interview the Customs Inspector that stopped Ressam (would be LAX bomber) and it was priceless.
Wolf asked her if as Clarke said, it was the clinton administration's heightened terrorist alert that prompted her to catch Ressam. No, she said, they didn't have an alert system, she had no instructions to look for terrorists and thought initially the bags of powder (the first thing they found) were drugs. Only after they found wire, watches and other bomb making materials did they know what they had.
At then end Wolfe told us that Richard Clarke did not return their call to appear on the program. Ha!
That hard working Customs Inspector's name is Diana Dean, click here to read her prepared statement to the senate judiciary committee. No full story on cnn yet.
When I heard this, it truly scared me. We had no national security for eight years in the nineties. For a long time I thought Clinton just didn't care, that he was the student body president of the USA. I'm still thinking that way, but Hillary was there for a purpose for those years, and much of it was to lay the way for her triumphant return to stay as ruler.
