Not today - waste of time.

You can also write directly by email to the 911 commission directly at
info@9-11commission.gov and demand her resignation, which I did yesterday already.

Great idea!
Taking your lead, and using some of your wording, I sent this letter to the 9-11 commission and numerous media outlets demanding John Kerry, Jamie Gorelick and Mansoor Ijaz PUBLICALLY testify.
Please feel free to use this text as you like to send your own letters.
To: 9-11 Commission
April 15, 2004
Subject: DEMAND Kerry, Gorelick, Mansoor Ijaz Testify Publically Before the 9/11 Commission
In the interest of the full truth and lasting national security these people must must testify before the 9/11 Commission.
I can't trust the media to report on this matter objectively. I can't trust the commission to offer non-partisan, unfiltered summaries. I want to judge this for myself.
Senator Kerry-
On May 7, 2001, Brian Sullivan, an FAA Special Agent, sent Senator Kerry a memo warning him that Logan Airport, within Kerry's state of Massachusetts, had severe security failures that made it an optimal staging area for attacks against American interests. Senator Kerry ignored this warning and, subsequently, the 9/11 attacks were partially launched from Logan.
Senator Kerry must answer several questions before the Commission including, but not limited to: what he knew, when he knew it, and why he failed to communicate the information to the proper authorities in an effective manner.
Senator Kerry must do the right thing and testify before the 9/11 Commission in a public hearing under oath.
Jamie Gorelick-
Jamie Gorelick must do the right thing and resign from the 9/11 Commission due to her impermissible conflict of interest.
Ms. Gorelick, as a high-ranking official in the Clinton Administration, drafted and signed a memo instituting the separation of counterintelligence from criminal investigations. This memo is at the very heart of the 9/11 Commission's investigation. Ms. Gorelick's "wall" between counterintelligence and criminal investigations was a key impediment to terrorism probes before the Sept. 11 attacks. The Commission must demand her testimony on this memo as a witness under oath.
Ms. Gorelick must also, upon her resignation, sign a non-disclosure agreement such that she may not use any of the sensitive information she has been privy to, as a member of the Commission, for political purposes subsequent to her resignation.
Mansoor Ijaz
Mansoor Ijaz negotiated Sudan's offer to share intelligence data on Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda to the Clinton administration in April 1997 and co-authored the blueprint for the militant ceasefire in Kashmir in summer 2000.
He is scheduled to testify under oath on May 7, 2004, in private with the 9-11 commission. His testimnony must be made in public. The American people need hear directly how terrorists were allowed to believe they could attack us on our own soil and that "was not just a structural intelligence failure, but a failure at the highest levels of America's political policymaking apparatus".
Signed,
Name and address included

Better yet, after folks do this, write another email to Chris Matthews at MSNBC for his "interview" with this woman last week on the Hardball show. What a farce that was, American corporate "journalism" at its' horridly biased worst. Nothing, I repeat NOTHING was ever brought up about this, just more of "what did Bush know and when did he know it" garbage.
Why is it democrats always get a free ride like this on the major news outlets? It's a disgrace.......but it's not doing the democrats any good. The truth always sets you free.

Great form letter. I made one addition to my submission...
"In addition, Commissioner Keene should offer an open apology to the American people for his insolent comments on this subject. In this free republic, everything is the people's business and open to our consideration."

No way. Her presence is the antidote.
To: jmstein7
I sent this email to the 9-11 Commission earlier today:
Gentlemen, Your commission's credibility is now in tatters.
Now that it's been revealed that Commissioner Gorelick was herself the architect of the dreaded wall of silence that paved the way for the 9/11 attacks, you must do these things to restore some semblance of credibility:
- Remove Jamie Gorelick from the commission.
- Subpeona Jamie Gorelick to testify before the commission, in public and under oath.
- Ask her, under oath, who directed her to come up with a policy to go beyond the requiremements of the law.
- Ask her who worked with her in formulating the policy.
- Ask her if there had been any infringements of citizens' rights, or attempts to exploit the differences between a FISA warrant and a criminal warrant, that may have made this policy necessary - or were the fears of FBI investigators gaming the system merely hypothetical?
- Ask her if anyone had suggested other ways of mitigating the risk of investigators gaming the system, and if so why were those options rejected?
- Ask her if anyone had warned that erecting a wall of silence could lead to an unwarranted chilling effect on investigators?
- Ask her if, in her judgement, the Patriot Act contains sufficient protections against such gaming of the system, or does America still need her wall?
- Ask her if she's willing to apologize to the American people for setting in motion the system that prevented the 9/11 terrorists from being caught in time?
Regardless of the political sniping and gamesmanship, I can tell that elements of your commission - especially the staffers - are honestly attempting to produce findings that the country can use to move forward. But only if you take the steps outlined above will your commission have any chance of regaining the kind of reputation it needs for your recommendations to be taken seriously.
Sincerely,
************

Demand that the justice department investigate her. Its time for those committing criminal negligence or criminal politicking with our justice system to be prosecuted.

I would think that the president is aware that this piece of offal on the commission that wrote that memo.
Why doesn't he, in the words of Mr Burns of Simpsons fame say "Release the hounds".
There is no question that a sitting president has the clout and the behind the scenes hit squad to put pressure in the right place. I question why he doesn't, and if not him, why not the RNC? Why the silence? They need to _MAKE_ this witch resign in disgrace and they need to GRILL her. It sickens me that career politicians like her just "deny deny deny" and slick willie out of their problems.
