The 9-11 Commission is rapidly becoming a national disgrace. I resent the political grandstanding some members have taken. For example, this commission which is supposed to seek all info and leave no stone unturned, treated Ms. Condi Rice in a very shameful manner. They would pretend to ask questions while making particularly partisan statements, then tried to stop Ms. Rice from responding with very important info.
I am very ditressed at the apparent conflicts of interest that have arsien. As I recall Henry Kissenger turned down the chairmanship of the commission due to what could be perceived as a conflict of interest. Now we have Ms. Gorelick. First, she accepted the place on the commission while her employeer was representing the Saudi government in cases arising from 9-11. Also, her actions as Deputy Attorney General were actions that the commission should be investigating. She knew when she accepted the place on the commission that there were things she did that could/should fall with in the scope of the commission. She knowingly withheld that information. She also is a contributor to a political candidate that could very well use findings of the commission for political purposes. If there is no conflict of interest here, there sure looks likes one. Resonding to these concerns, chairman Kean suggested abouth the public that "people ought to stay out of our business!"
The commsission is my business. Please see what you can do to address these concerns as my Representative in Washington.
