Since Ashecroft declassified Jamie's directive, WE should be able to read it. Betcha Chrissy won't even mention it. LOL

Very sad news. Prayers for their families.

This is why we need to be no-nonsense, and Ashcroft is demonstrating, when it comes to serious business. THe contrast between Ashcroft and Reno is absolutely stunning.

Awesome re fingering Gorelick. WHAT IS SHE DOING ON THE COMMISSION?

This has been my question from the beginning. Why was she EVER allowed on this commission? Who chose these people?

Like I said earlier in post #892, I'm starting to think Daschle appointed Gorelick to the panel because he knew in advance she had a lot to hide. Putting her on the panel was his way of keeping her from testifying. He must have known she was a very weak link for the Dems.

Asking whether Ashcroft knew of any plans to respond to the Cole with a military strike?

FBI was there within hours, they determined that AQ was involved, but couldn't establish command and control of AQ until early fall.

Didn't have clear, provable understanding whether senior AQ individuals were involved.

Such horrible news! God help the world!

Hopefully the 2000 election was more than just politics...it was a salvation for this nation. And to repeat: Ashcroft is a hero!

John Ashcroft is a proud conservative and a true patriot.

Like Presbush, AG Ashcroft is a man of character and integrity.

Ashcroft was actually contemplating a run himself for the Presidency in 2000.

I bet the Rats are smarting over how they cheated him out of a Senate seat and giving it to Caranahan.

Oh, me too....it should be good, given that she authored the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy.

AHH - I am so frustrated - I was just now able to tune in - and I'm trying to catch up with many of these posts.

I can't believe I've missed all of this that Ashcroft has said.

a bump, and a tear, for the memory of our good friend, and fellow Freeper, Barbara Olsen, aka BKO...Ted's wife, who died in the plane that hit the Pentagon....she is missed..

We can add another four bodies to the body count of the DEMOCRATS who want us to LOSE this war! I am so sorry to hear that again! They should be held accountable for each and every death during this ENTIRE WAR!!!

Ashcroft has declassified a report Gorelock wrote several years ago that established the wall that protects against Intel. agencies sharing information.

Which is the exact part of the problem that permitted 9/11 to happen.

Which gives her a clear conflict of interest and should get her booted off the commission. (I don't think she will be booted off the commission, btw).

Reno aptly illustrated today how inept she is/was, thus Gorelick as 2nd in command at the DOJ was in the catbird seat of authority.

Ashcroft is a hero

Yes he is. I hope he is feeling much better now that he had his operation.
