Lol.

If this is the same commission that refused to bring Madame Gorelick to the stand to testify despite her clear involvement in the creation of 'the wall' that impeded our protection, then any finding they bring forth is worthless. They've blatantly and deliberately played CYA for her at our expense and at the expense of the truth. Which is not condusive to preventing a repeat of 9/11.

That tells me they are just show ponies. They're not after the truth. So you can deduce that nothing they bring forward in their findings is truthful. Just a bunch of BS. Another waste of time and money ........Trully, where their real talent lies.

While Saddam dispatched a senior Iraqi intelligence official to Sudan to meet with bin Laden in 1994, the commission said it had not turned up evidence of a "collaborative relationship."

Hey if they don't have the same union card and aren't getting a paystub directly from OBL then they can't be working together. Oh yeah, and oral sex isn't sex, OJ was innocent and Terezzzzza Tootsie Kerry is sexy.

"When did THEY (senior Ben Laden associates) testify before the commission?"

Maybe they were referring to some of the Commission members themselves? /sarcasm

"Two senior bin Laden associates have adamantly denied that any ties existed between al-Qaida and Iraq," the report said.

Oh - well then - there you have it. Our 9/11 Commission actually quoting terrorists to validate their conclusion. What the hell is going on here?

I'm not at all surprised. There's little that makes me want to kick the ever-livin' snot out of something or somebody like this farce of a 9-11 Circus does.

I have learned to pay The Circus no mind. It doesn't deserve one iota of attention or consideration of it's findings. And the public knows it.

What astounds me is what in the world these fools think they will be able to do after this farce is over? Who will hire them, who will trust them, who will believe them? Maybe the DNC, I suppose.

If brains = explosives the collective bang from the 911 commission members wouldn't knock the pants off a gnat.

What a bunch of losers especially that RHINO John "stab them in the back" Warner.

From here on out, they should be designated the "9/11 Warren Commission"

The entire "9/11" Commission report will sit gathering dust on the shelf right next to another "truthful, factual, and unbiased" report called the Warren Commission Report on the Assassination of John F. Kennedy".

Ah well, . . . and so it goes!

Chairman of the National Commission on Terrorists Attacks Upon the United States (9-11 Commission) Gov. Thomas Kean looks on at the beginning of their final two-day hearing at the National Transportation Security Board conference center in Washington, June 16, 2004. Al Qaeda has changed drastically since the Sept. 11 attacks but it will keep trying to strike in the United States to inflict mass casualties, the panel investigating the 2001 hijackings said on Wednesday.

Chemical warhead found at an Iraqi air base, marked with a green band, the symbol for chemical weaponry. Trace amounts of a nerve agent were found at two spots along the ~meter-long warhead. These amounts are consistent with leakage from the chemically armed weapon. A 13-foot missile was found next to it.

Don't be confused with the green band. This is not an international marking for a chemical munition. The warhead is a standard high explosive fitted to a Soviet air-to surface missile. The initial reading was conducted with basic meter equipment which gave a low initial false reading. This was fully admitted later by the US military and the warhead was found to be conventional high explosive.

Prelim nerve warhead test negative

The 9-11 panel is one big joke and all the so called members of the committee are an even BIGGER joke especially Jamie Gorelick. They should fold their tent and go home.

They have shown their true colors not to mention their character or lack thereof AND... they have proven themselves ignorant and shallow little weasels trying to get their 15 minutes of fame.

Whatever they have to say about 9-11 now is irrelevant. Totally irrelevant.
