I thought it was either Sandy Berger or one of the other National Security Advisor types that made that slip?
My recollection was Stephanopoulus. I found this entry in “Smilin Jack” forum:
“>September 11, 2001: Mr. George Stephanopoulos, former assistant to President Clinton, on ABC TV with Peter Jennings in mid afternoon talked about the two situation rooms in the White House. Speculating that Cheney, Rice, and other Bush administration leaders were in the more secure 2nd situation room, Stephanopoulos said that this room was where Clinton leaders had gone to meet “after the Oklahoma City bombing and the TWA BOMBING.”!! This, of course, could have been a slip of the tongue in emotional times, I am sure he meant to say shootdown. *(revised quote)
On Larry King Live tonight Senator Kerry who was on the Intelligence Committee until last year, includes Flight 800 along with the embassy bombings in discussing our reaction to terrorism!
“James Kalstrom was quoted on network television yesterday as saying: “this is the first time since TWA 800,” inferring that TWA was an act of terrorism. *(revised quote)
“If anyone has video tape of any of these quotes, please contact ARAP so we can get a verified transcript.<
“Stephanopoulis’s comment was made on Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 11, between 2 and 5pm EDT on ABCTV.”
