keeping its powder dry until AG Ashcroft shows up.

Of course it is. They give this fool a pass and will attack a Bush admin member who's very recently been seriously ill requiring surgical intervention and intensive care.

But it'll make those 9-11 families happy, so that makes it OK.

Oh my God! These are the lowest of the low. Like Kerry yesterday calling for the "de-Americanization" of Iraq.

Ben-Veniste talking every slowly now and wanting to know about cooperation in followup of Millenium Plot.

Reno - "It is facscinating how the team worked together, exchanging information, trusting each other,... people talked about data like water coming out of a fire hydrant,... it opened the doors,... it was based on trust,... the principals were sharing,... cut through the red tape and 'move it',... we do the best we can... (becoming incoherent)..."

Even more important, is Gorelick's role, since she was one of those very lawyers...both at Justice and the DoD.

Exactly! How did this 'Rat biatch even get on the 911 panel?

Reno says she did NOT discuss AQ with Ashcroft!!!!!

I bet Ben Vineste wishes he hadn't asked THAT question!

Reno admits she didn't talk to Ashcroft either about bin Laden or al Qaida but just terrorism in general and requirement to share information.

She only knows about the evils and dangers presented by 'Right-Wing-Militias', 'Right-Wing-Religious Zealots' and protecting Abortion Clinics. Those were her priorities.

You are so right. If only the Clinton administration had felt as threatened by terrorists as they did by David Koresh and the women and children gassed and burned to death at Waco, perhaps 911 could have been prevented.

I'm LOL at "chortle". I do it all the time, but looked it up just to be sure...

"probably blend of chuckle and snort"

Great word!

LOL! Did I just hear that right or did BV ask her if she briefed Ashcroft on specific threats and her answer was "no?"

Benveniste asks the same question Roemer (IIRC) asked, hoping to get a different response: Did you brief Ashcroft on al-Qaeda cells in the US?

Reno: No (same answer she gave when that was asked earlieir).

Reno - "... we looked for cases that when you come to the crunch you need the best facts to make the best law" (what is she talking about?)
