"Gorelick's conflict of interest came to light on Tuesday afternoon, when a newly declassified 1995 Justice Department memo written by her..."
Reagrdless of this memo...she should've never been on this commission to begin with. Her position as both a Deputy AG and General Counsel for the DoD under Clinton, puts her in TWO relevant positions when it came to policies developed prior to 9/11. The fact that the Clinton administraion put such a premium on legalese...and treated terrorism as a criminal matter, makes all these top-tier lawyers positions very relevant.

Gorelick's job on the commission is the same that it was under the Clinton administration, Chief Consigliere in charge of obstruction and obfuscation.

That's why the Commissions charter states only from 1998 to 9/11....she was out of the administration I think in '97...
