Vice Chairman of the 9/11 Commission Lee Hamilton blasted the mainstream press yesterday for distorting the Commission's findings on links between Iraq and al Qaida before the Sept. 11 attacks, saying those findings actually support Bush administration contentions.

"The sharp differences that the press has drawn [between the White House and the Commission] are not that apparent to me," Hamilton told the Associated Press, a day after insisting that his probe uncovered "all kinds" of connections between Osama bin Laden's terror network and Iraq.

Lee Hamilton is an old style Democrat. I'm sure he's disgusted by the politically correct weenies, trial lawyers, feminazis who call the shots these days. Obviously the hysterical leftist mass media gets on his nerves too.

Don't waste any tears on poor Lee Hamilton. He helped said traitors along with their agenda by allowing this "investigation" to be the circus it was, complete with all his own TV appearances. Now he wants to be outraged that the findings are being "misinterpreted?" Bullsheet.
