And what was Commission Chairman Tom Kean's response to calls for Gorelick's dismissal or resignation?

"People ought to stay out of our business," he huffed.

Hey Kean .. go pound sand .. THIS IS OUR BUSINESS!!

This is our national security that you are playing games with and who the heck do you think you are??

I'll bet this mouth-breathing RINO is also a Howard Stern fan.

As it turns out, the memo is just the tip of the iceberg concerning Gorelick's questionable fitness as a member of the panel.

That's because she's a litigation partner in one of Washington's most high-powered Democratic law firms - Wilmer, Cutler & Pickering.

And that firm represents Prince Mohammed al-Faisal al-Saud, a member of the Saudi royal family and director of a key Saudi financial agency, against a lawsuit filed by a coalition of 600 Sept. 11 families.

.........

One of its subsidiaries is the Al-Shamil Islamic Bank, whose directors include Osama bin Laden's half-brother and his brother-in-law.

According to congressional testimony last October by Jean-Charles Brisard, an international expert on terrorism financing, the Swiss-based DMI "is one of the central structures in Saudi Arabia's financing of international Islam," and is rooted in the House of Saud's "support for the radical Islamic cause."

HOLY SH*T!

Gorelick, who might have become attorney general in an Al Gore administration, could get that same job if John Kerry wins in November.

No, that possibility is long gone. Gorelick is toast.

So Gorelick is behind the "institutional structural yadda yadda" that prevented sharing of information that could have stopped 9/11. And Doris Meissner, while at INS during the Clinton Admin was behind the weakening of visa and immigration rules which allowed the terrorists to gain easy access to the U.S. And wasn't Al Gore involved in recommending standards for airport security? And didn't the Clinton admin dictate zero tolerance for racial and ethnic profiling that at one time would have nabbed the terrorists before they could ever board an airplane?

The Clinton Admin could have hardly set the table for Al Qeada any better if they were a sleeper cell themselves.

For this statement, Kean ought resign, as well as Gorelick.

For the good of the copuntry she should step down. Even Orin Hatch could make this case.

By the standards of this Commission, Julius Streicher should have been one of the judges at the Nuremberg Trials.

This is why the government our founders created no longer works. This is the entire attitude of government officials in the United States AT EVERY LEVEL!! Government needs to be completely taken apart and the incumbent bureaucratic and elected jackasses in office thrown into the gutter where they belong.

this memo - which went beyond what federal law required - erected a legal wall between the FBI and CIA, creating "the single greatest structural cause for September 11

Mainstream media has no interest in the Single Greatest Structural Cause of 911. Thanks to the New York Post for getting this to a small percentage of the planet.
