As far as I'm concerned, the entire Commission's work has been corrupted and therefore discredited. I will not believe anything it releases. It needs to go.
Although it's too late, I could not agree with you more. No one who served in Congress or the executive branch during either the Clinton or GWB administrations, or who had any professional affiliation with them, should have been on the commission. The commissioners should have been well-respected business and professional leaders, members of legitimate minority parties, etc. The Republican and Democrat members could still have been former governors, mayors, state attornies general, or others with similar elective or appointive experience.
As for the chair, the only appropriate chairman would be Rudy Guiliani, in my opinion. I don't mind Hamilton as co-chair.
But, of course, this is all moot, because we're stuck with the committee we have. No amount of pressure from our quarter is going to change things, because the so-called mainstream media is absolutely stone-cold closed to our concerns. (This isn't to say we shouldn't keep trying, if for no other reason than to bug the crap out of them, and let 'em know we aren't going away.)
As for any work product put out by this hopelessly corrupt commission, there isn't a word I'd believe or trust. Not even "is," since it would depend on how Gore-lick and Ben-Veniste learned from Bubba to define it.
An aside on the "is" thing: When I witnessed, live on my TV, a president of the United States say in all seriousness, "It depends on what the meaning of the word IS, is," I thought surely it was all over for him. Yet when he not only remained in office, but his media shills were able to even gin up a moderate public backlash against Republicans (!) in the 1998 elections, that's when my faith in the American voter hit rock bottom. It has not risen from the bottom since. Hopefully, my deep cynicism about the American voter will have cause to change for the better this November.
