BTW, Bob Kerrey on Fox and Friends, said that the committee has a list of questions from "the families" that have to be answered. I bet that none of them are the questions raised by Miniter, here.

And I think we can all guess which "families" will have their questions answered. It's won't be the pro-Bush families, that's for sure. We'll be hearing more from the professional victim contingent -- Kristen Breitweister, Mindy Kleinberg, et al. Did you know that those women have already said that if the 9/11 Commission isn't sufficiently to their liking (read: anti-Bush), they're going to demand *another* 9/11 Commission?

I saw Breitweister on MSNBC today, interviewed by the anchor named "Sam". He was more than deferential and they both referred to her pov as representative of "the families".

He asked her many questions, but the one I wish to point to was that she opined that Bush and Cheney speaking privately to the committee might result in them being "less than truthful".

Naturally she has zero concerns about Clarke's representations. It is clear when she says "we want the answers" she means an admission of her own ill-founded and disturbing preconceived conclusions.

It would behoove MSNBC to recognize Breitweiser and her little group that Sam was oohing and ahing over as radical and there are other families who are in tremendous pain thanks to them.

The professional victims among the 9/11 families have co-opted the victimization of all the families, and have set themselves up as the only "legitimate" (or media-recognized) spokespersons of those who lost people on 9/11. Despite their howls of protest over the first Bush ad, it is they who have politicized the loss of their family members. We all feel for their loss, but we are getting sick of their act.
