Thank you SO much for doing that. The timing of Gorelick's Wall memo was very curious to me when it first came to light, but after seeing Hyde's question to Freeh, I'm downright suspicious. There are several possibilities that would explain why Gorelick was put on the 9-11 commission, and at least for me, the OKC cover-up is at the TOP of the list.
What the heck did Henry Hyde "hear" that made him ask this question right out of nowhere? Of course, it COULD be one big coinkydink, but it does make me wonder.
Here it is again for any newcomers:
REP. HYDE: Good. Director Freeh, has the Office of Intelligence Policy and Review overruled your request to surveill certain terroristic targets?MR. FREEH: No, sir.
REP. HYDE: That has not happened?
MR. FREEH: Unless you can be more specific I don't know that I could answer that. But no, as far as I know, it's not.
REP. HYDE: All right, I don't think it's appropriate to be more specific, but that was something that I had heard that concerned me. If you say it didn't happen --
MR. FREEH: No, we have recently -- the Attorney General and the Deputy and myself discussed some -- not changes, but clarifying our mutual interpretation of the Attorney General's guidelines with respect to investigating terrorism cases to ensure that we are not missing anything. But other than that, I don't really have any complaints about it.
By the way here is a list of threads with keyword "Gorelick" some bring up OKC also:

Backhoe also has a list he started earlier.
