Gorelick gets 'death threats'

The 9-11 Commission member who has come under for her actions in the Clinton administration and for refusing to step down from the panel probing the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. says she's now receiving death threats.

"I can confirm that I've received threats at my office and my home," Jamie Gorelick told CNN. "I did get a bomb threat to my home."

She added, "I have gotten a lot of very vile e-mails. The bomb threat was by phone."

Gorelick told the network the threats were "scary," but said she was "not intimidated enough to resign from the commission."

The FBI is reportedly looking into the threats.

As WorldNetDaily reported last week, Gorelick – the former deputy attorney general under President Clinton – rejected calls that she step down from her position and become a witness after it was revealed she had authored a 1995 memo which created a "wall that segregated criminal investigators and intelligence agents," as current Attorney General John Ashcroft put it.

U.S. Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., said Gorelick had an inherent conflict of interest, investigating the incident about which she herself could provide valuable information.

"I believe the commission's work and independence will be fatally damaged by the continued participation of Ms. Gorelick as a commissioner," Sensenbrenner said.

"All of the commission members have some government experience," Gorelick responded. "Everyone is subject to the same recusal policies. You could have had a commission with nobody who knew anything about government. And I don't think it would have been a very helpful commission."

GoreLicker lies!

I agree there could be something to your theory. Don't think it is a VRWC as I am certain they will try to put forth.

Every RAT that is caught out, screams they've been threatened..it's just like the scream racisim if they don't get their way.

Those individuals, who are making death threats against Gorelick, are not helping in the effort to expose her bias. Their actions have made the death threats the issue, not the cover-up of the Clinton Administration's role in making the United States vulnerable to terrorism.

While your observation is correct, I would bet that most, if not all, of these "death threats" were provided by DemocRat operatives for exactly the result you specify, so you waste your breath.

"Perhaps from the Clintons, reminding her that unless she keeps her mouth shut, she might end up at Ft. Marcy Park in another Arkancide."

Probably a knee-jerk re-action to a harmless, non-threatening phone call from a carpet salesman wanting to fit her for a rug.

I don't condone death threats on anyone. That being said, had this been a conservative reporting death threats, you can be certain that the headline (if reported at all) would read: "Conservative CLAIMS to have received threats"

[hewhowaits]

LOL
sadly, too true.

"I did get a bomb threat to my home."

This has now been confirmed. Someone called Gore Lick and invited her to go see "The Alamo", the bomb of the decade.

I was thinking that this could be hatch by off the wall types over at DU. But then again, the utility of these threats are great enough that this is probably a very professional job - Carville and company seem to fit the bill. (Or Bill, as the case may be...)

This is very true. If she has been faking the death threats, the FBI will learn it soon enough.

However, I fear there are enough nuts who would actually call in threats. Makes her look sypathetic, and us look crazy. We should be the first ones to call for the FBI to find and prosecute those responsible. We're supposed to be better than that.

Besides, if we raise a huge cry for investigation, and a democrat operatiove gets nabbed, so much the better.

[martin gibson]

This morning's NPR explained how the 'death threats' came from hate-radio listeners whom Rush Limbaugh had whipped into wild blood-frenzy with his venom spewing vitriol.

I am not making this up...

[bondjamesbond]

Somebody I was talking to about handicapped parking spaces said he couldn't believe that people would park in them, that people were such jerks.

I explained to him that people in general are not jerks, and that if 99.44% of people were completely pure, the remaining 0.56% is more than enough to make sure that every handicapped space is filled with a non-handicapped car.

This problem is worse by a factor of about 1000. It takes five jerks in the entire country to make everybody else look bad.

I have no doubt that Gorelick has gotten death threats. There are a few rock-hard, impenetrably stupid people out there who do such things to anybody who is even remotely controversial. But this has no bearing on whether or not she should be on the panel.

She should be removed from the panel on the merits. Death threats have nothing to do with that.

That would be really good!!!!!
