Nope, not hard logic at all.

An "independent commission" cant be called independent if they are examining themselves. Any person with such a major role as Gorelick in terrorism policy pre 9/11 has no business on the commission.

Otherwise, we could have saved the trouble of bringing all these old suits out of the closet and made it the Tenet/Ashcroft commission. (hmmm, on second thoughts that wuld have been a more balanced and professional commission.)

Hey, backhoe!

Here's that documented liar and pig Gorelick trying to defend her aiding and abetting the terrorists in attacks that killed 3,000 Americans!

Claims the commission is NOT a finger-pointing charade of jack-in-the-box clowns. She denies that the "commission" is comprised of Democrat operatives who are trying to blame Bush and namby-pamby Republican go-alongs! Hilarious stuff!

I'll go add it to the links.

Naturally, Gorelick runs to DNC mouthpiece 'The Washington Post' to get this lame "I-didn't-do-it-nobody-saw-me-you-can't-prove-anything" piece of drivel published.

Why is she addressing this in the Washington Post? If she wants to say that AG Ashcroft is lying, then why didn't she counter him during his testimony? Or, why doesn't she testify herself?

First, I did not invent the "wall,"

No, Ms. Gorelick, you didn't. But your memo raised it higher. By the memo's own admission: it "goes beyond the existing legal requirements".

You've still got some 'splainin' to do, lady.

Should have done what Reagan said:

"Ms. Gorelick teardown that wall!"

Another Cinton person refusing to admit they are wrong.

They can't possibly be wrong. After all they are the brightest, most intelligent and loving people on the face of the earth. They told me so themselves.</sarcasm>

My fellow commissioners have spoken for themselves in rejecting the call by a few partisans that I step aside based upon false premises.

A few partisans? Most polls are showing over 90% wanting her removal!

I have worked hard to help(thwart) the American public understand what happened on Sept. 11. I intend -- with my brethren on the commission -- to finish the job.

She is finished...

Gorelick writes - "The purpose of my memo was to resolve a problem presented to me: facilitating investigations on both the intelligence side and criminal side at the same time.

From National Review Online 4/13/04 - Commissioner Gorelick, as deputy attorney general — the number two official in the Department of Justice — for three years beginning in 1994, was an architect of the government's self-imposed procedural wall, intentionally erected to prevent intelligence agents from pooling information with their law-enforcement counterparts.

She can clear up everything just by swearing in...
