He has not been seriously challeged by anyone on the committe yet IMO. Maybe I missed something - was distracted for a bit by work. Dang!

Well, he's getting a hit on it now, but he is very slick in his response.

The Republicans on the committee, as per those in Congress, are too busy trying to pick their jaws up off the floor that their colleague, Mr. Clarke, would dare to write a book contrary to his 15 hours of testimony already contributed to this committee prior to today. Thompson actually tried to hold Clarke's feet to the fire and if he had more time, he would have been most effective.

The guy admits he tells the press what it wants to hear as a shill for Bush only because he works for the admin, and then also says today to the committee and via his book that Bush and his admin are idiots and that he sees nothing contradicting in his actions. NOt only that, he sees nothing contradicting in stating the reason he's attacking Bush is because Bush went to Iraq. What the h*ll doess that really have to do with how Bush acted prior to 9/11???
