Maybe she is just a ego maniac who just wanted to get her name back out there. Hell some lawyers made a career out of Washington show hearings. Ben-Veniste...cough...cough. I guess she thought no one would ever call her on what she done in the past. If she wasn't such a partisan hack they probably never would have bothered. Karma isn't it great?
Fat chance. Remember who we're dealing with here--Hillary's coven. Nothing they do is accidental; everything is part of some devious plot, the end of which is not ego but power.
No, Gorelick knows she's skating on thin ice. Did you see the exchange during Condi's appearance, when Gorelick was questioning her? C-SPAN employed a split screen with Gorelick on the left and Rice on the right. The contrast was striking: Rice was calm, almost motionless, while Gorelick was squirming, gesticulating and making facial expressions like a spastic. The best part was when Rice deftly turned the tables on her and started asking her questions. It was obvious from Gorelick's demeanor that she was really nervous.
