I don't do this very often, so forgive me.
I was watching the ABC program tonight on Donald Rumsfeld at 8 P.M. EST.
Right in the middle of the show, here appears Richard Clarke, and down in the corner is the little ABC logo with the words ABC (SOMETHING) CONSULTANT. (Not sure what TYPE of consultant, but definitely CONSULTANT.

I thought I would crack up when Ma Richards said that she THANKED Terry McAuliffe for all that he has done for their party. ROFLOL! ME TOO!
That crowd was so boring. At one point Terry McAuliffe stood up in the middle of Kerry's speech and started clapping. He was the ONLY one doing it. I think he was trying to rally the troops but it was too late. They had all fallen asleep or too drunk to notice. lol! They are pathetic.
I also noticed that TE RAY ZA was powdering her nose when the camera panned over to her. She could have used a comb on that mop. I suppose the black pantsuit is still the "in" garb of the high ups of the Democrat party. Talk about the "party of the rich". Most of them had diamonds knocking out the television lights. Ma Richards' were pulling her ears down. Who could tell if she was drunk? She is like that all the time.

Kerry sucked the life right out of them .. and then at the end he couldn't get ANYONE to come up on stage with him when he kept waving them up *L*

Clarke: Terrorism Wasn't High Bush Priority If I recall President Clinton focused national security efforts on investigating the "extreme right wing" in America who listen to talk radio and were "responsible" for the OKC bombing. Bubba's cronies were able to spin that to his re-election after what seemed like a one term presidency.
Additionally he put the FBI onto investigating "racially motivated" church fires that were proven to have little to nothing to do with race.
Bill Clinton tried to divide this nation from within by demonizing his enemies and using security agencies (and tax collectors) to intimidate his opponents and hypnotize his flock of sheep.

Doesn't ABC understand that Clarke is a serial liar? A malignant narcissist.
Commissioner Lehman said in the 9/11 Hearing that Clarke had worked with the commission privately and testified off the record for 15 or 16 hours and that his public testimony was in direct contrast to his private testimony!
Anyone have a phone number for ABC?

Howlin, Rush talked about this today and a few others, but so far I've yet to see an article about this interesting tidbit from Comissioner Lehman:
Commissioner Lehman said in the 9/11 Hearing that Clarke had worked with the commission privately and testified off the record for 15 or 16 hours and that his public testimony was in direct contrast to his private testimony!
He PLANNED this a year ago. He knew he was going to have his moment of fame. He testified privately saying one thing and testified publicly saying the polar opposite.
That is deliberate! Think about the planning involved in this...to work with the 9/11 Commission for a year telling them one thing privately...then come out with a book and testify to something else publicly. Amazing. And perjury, I would imagine.

You can bet the WH is digging through all of Clarke's Email and memo's that cover the last 20 years... The guy has a big document trail that will be made public soon enough.
Add to that, it can be proven if Bush increased the CIA budget for going after al Qaeda "five fold" as originally claimed by Clarke. Many of these details are provable one way or another.
Once the evidence starts pouring out, Clarke will simply quietly drop off the liberal media's radar screen never to be heard from again.

If it was "off the record" it can't be used as proof of perjury.

Doesn't ABC understand that Clarke is a serial liar? A malignant narcissist. ABC hired George Stephanopolis (sp?) to serve as host, moderator, and analyst for their Sunday news show. Honesty, fairness, and integrity are apparently not part of their selection criteria.
To: DB
I think Lehman said two things:
#1. That Clarke had helped the Commission so much in providing a blueprint regarding the questions they should ask. He did this privately.
#2. That Clark had also TESTIFIED privately for 15-16 hours and his testimony private was a 180 from his public testimony.
I'm virtually positive that private testimony is under oath. Rice, Cheney, etc. all testified or will testify privately and it is under oath.

I don't think it was "off the record" so much as it was simply out of the public eye- IOW, there was classified info involved since it relates to intelligence and also executive privilege involved. It is very much on the record as is Condi Rice's four hours of testimony earlier. Eventually FOI will be applied or it will be declassified and out it will come.

Just when you think the elite media has sunk as low as it can go...they surprise me.
To: Howlin
So, does anyone know what Jamie Metzl, Democrat of Missouri, and Steven Peter Andreasen, Democratic Farmer-labor Party of Minnesota, have in common which would interest a 'self-employed' former antiterrorism staffer? Freeper Adam az noticed Richard Clarke donated a few thousand to these liberals.

Ah, I see one possibility. Jamie Metzl is one of the big pushers for "first reponders," IOW, dumping a lot of money down the round file known as security consultant companies by turning local fire departments and hospitals into extensions of the federal government. It sounds great to advocate more for "first reposnders" until you realize that the goal of the advocates is to take locally run emergency organizations and put them onto a federal welfare program (like they did to our schools) where they will become dependent on the feds and hence, cash cows for Democrats to milk.
