I caught a few minutes of Weldon on Fox and Friends this a.m., I am pretty sure he said one of the reasons this wasn't pursued was that the Justice Dept didn't want to risk politics and popularity with this because of Waco.
The JD used to same excuse to not nab the cult leader in our county who molested 140+ children. Amazingly, shortly after Bush took office, he was arrested and his compound was recently sold to be converted back to farmland.
Gotta have a legacy, ya know.
Risking popularity to stop the murder of American citizens? Sounds more like Bush's MO. Definatly not Clinton's.
BTW - Where's Jamie? (Gorlick) Where's Richie Clark? And *what* was Burglar stuffing in his pants?
I saw that, too. But we need to know if this was the DOD's lawyers, the admin's WH lawyers, a combination, whatever. Somehow I think the decision to give Atta a pass went higher up the food chain than the DOD. That would fit a pattern that's forming. A very nasty pattern.
