[victoryatallcosts]

He's trying to run out the clock on Gorton.

[Just mythoughts]

With this guy in charge under Clinton I so see why we got hit.

[Toespi]

Clarke is going into detail about "job titles." Seems that is a very important facet to him.

[freedom1st]

Clarke is just stalling hoping Gordon's time runs out before questioning about Angel tape.

[Mo1]

I think he has. Roemer said "there are a lot of distractions out there *today*" and instructed him to just focus on memos, emails, notes and the like and not pay attention to partisan attacks. Then Clarke goes on to cite Woodward's book as evidence of how seriously or not Bush took the threat of terrorism. Unbelievable

Thanks .. the phone rang and I missed this part

Looks like someone is in trouble

[BurbankKarl]

now he is telling why he couldnt save the twin towers himself...he was limited in power..

guess they didnt give him a Cape and invisible plane.

[Miss Marple]

So, he was so frustrated at the supposed inaction of President Bush that rather than resigning and going public with his concerns, he just asked for a reassignment so that he could continue to have his government paycheck?

[hobbes1]

The WH briefing Contradicts what he is saying Under oath. If what he said in the Briefing is accurate, than there are witnesses to the meetings etc.


When it is just a book, no one cares, now he is Breaking the Law.......

[dinasour]

Did y'all catch Roemer saying "we only want to look at the time between '98 and 9-11"

I'm surprised he didn't say "we only want to look a the time between Jan 2001 and 9-11".

[ladyinred]

Hillary doesn't need his files, he is reading her script in my opinion.

[Howlin]

What committee members' memos?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

If nobody on this committee asks Clarke about the Angle tape, you can bet the fix was in from the beginning.

NewsMax already said that the 9/11 commission is nothing more than "beat witnesses over the head" commission.

[Indy Pendance]

Yep, 4 days later. Bush knew he was incompetent.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

He wanted to launch cruise missiles and take out some tents!

[Peach]

It's interesting that he was upset about the lack of action about THREATS.

He was not similarly upset about the lack of action when we had ACTUAL TERRORIST ACTIONS that killed Americans during Clinton's years.

[Carolinamom]

Goody! Now on to the lottery.

[StarFan]

Not so, perjury is if both conflicting statements were said under oath. The Angle tape covered a WH briefing Clarke gave. But, he must be made to answer for his previous statement AND his previous statement should be read for all to hear. They will never know about it on the evening news.

[sonofatpatcher2]

Was over at a friend's house a little while ago and he has CNN on with Bill Schnider saying the 9-11 Commission was the MOST non-partisan group around! I almost fell though the floor...

Bill S. did not mention Clinton's hatchman Ben V nor Ms. Gorelick's role in the Monica coverup!

Gad! CNN is truly still the Clinton New Network and morphing into KNN: the Kerry New Network.

[Mo1]

I want to know if he knows Joe Wilson.

He reminds me of Wilson

[boxerblues]

You have to admit thats exactly what is happening
