“The 9/11 9/11 Commission” (Not a Misprint)

Special to FreeRepublic ^ | 20 August 2005 | John Armor (Congressman Billybob)

The Congressional Committee will have Democrats on it. But, as with the House and the Senate, the Committee will be chaired by a Republican and have an operating majority of Republicans. That also means the primary staff will be Republican. (The Democrats will have minority staff.)

Couple that with the opportunity to have these new documents in hand and Jamie Gorelick on the stand under oath. Yes, I think some hay can definitely be made NOW, especially since anyone who can read without moving their lips knows now that the 9/11 Commission failed seriously.

The.....9-11 Commission on the 9-11 Con-Mission?

[Sweetjustusnow]

I think a nice fat lawsuit by victims families of 9/11 against the administration of the time and all those involved would be a nice big fire cracker put under their butts.

From what I am being told by 'birdies' this issue is under serious debate right now, because public statements from administration officials might seem political, considering all that is on the front burner at this time. Some think that this issue going forward will depend on how much media attention is focused in its direction. The biggest liability is actually Weldon himself. Had he waited with his book, and simply pounded the issue, it would have played better than for him to be hawking a book on the subject at the same time. The issue needs another (and better) spokesperson to help bring attention to the matter.

[Congressman Billybob]

I really like the results you want. Not a snowball's chance they will happen, but well worth imagining.

Those offers were cut off by Clinton Administration attorneys and based that refusal on the “wall of separation” memo written by Jamie Gorelick, then a deputy under Attorney General Janet Reno.

Billybob:

When I first heard this from Weldon, he mentioned that the lawyers forbade the passing of the information on to the FBI was because "they were here on legal visas". Turns out that this was a bogus reason, but to me it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the "wall". That may have been the lawyers' reason, but that's not how I heard it.

I haven't heard everything that Weldon has said, but I don't recall him mentioning the "wall".

That's not to say that Gorelick and the commission don't deserve to be pillaried. They are a fraud.

Prediction: the abilities, morals, and sexual preferences of the Able Danger group and/or the Army briefers will be attacked.

No, wrong. That wont happen. You don't attack the folks who know all the secrets. That would be a very bad move on the part of those who wish to keep certain information in the dark.

Here are some of my thoughts about the Nuclear program during World War II. There was no need for the Soviets to study subscription lists to to draw the conclusion that we were involved in nuclear reasearch for an atomic weapon.

The Roosevelt Administration put a real secrecy clamp on all US Scientists doing any sort of atomic research. Once the Manhattan project was approved, those hired to work on it were sworn to total secrecy. They published nothing about their research. Since every effective researcher we had was put on the project, publications on the nature of Atoms went from several a year to zero per year.

It occured to me that some Soviet Scientists had to be following those publications in the 1930s. The fact that nothing was published after the Manhattan project was approved would have and likely did stand out like a sore thumb.

The Sherlock Holmes line, "The dog did nothing in the night time!" was no more revealing than the "American nuclear scientists published nothing after 1942!"

Not only should there be a 9/11 Commission, Commission...

but I think it should start on 9/11...but, since 9/11 is on a Sunday...then on 9/12!

[oceanview]

a good idea, but it takes a long time, and the entire establishment would be against them at every turn.

[Congressman Billybob]

Evening, my friend.

I thoroughly agree with you that this issue has to grow and be larger than Weldon in order to succeed in digging down to bedrock truth (with the fringe benefit of damaging all those who have backed Gorelick, including many Democrats in Congress). Based on the press coverage I've see just today, I think this is already bigger than Weldon.

"My contribution to a front-burner topic."

An an excellent one at that, CB. I'll contribute a bump or two. Front burner it is.

[SueRae]

Perhaps a massive demonstration march to the Capitol, followed a burning of all of our '911 commission report' copies *may* just get some coverage.

[Boazo]

there were republicans ready to defend her. Like my very own ex Senator, Sludge Gordon.

[airborne]

As long as the same people pick members for this commission as did last time, it will be the 9/11 9/11 cover-up cover-up.

[popdonnelly]

Someone is going to convene a hearing on this. If the truth comes out, it will probably be by accident.

[crazyhorse691]

especially since anyone who can read without moving their lips knows now that the 9/11 Commission failed seriously.

110% agreement with you on that. I will not belabor my cynicism about another commission as I really do not have any other suitable alternative that would produce the Hay.

[Pukin Dog]

Bigger than Weldon, yes.

But not yet big enough not to be 'spin-able' by those who would rather it died.

[NormsRevenge]

BuMP for the Truth to come out...

Something the MSM seems to have lost it's touch at reporting lately for years.

Oh, by the way, the follow up to "Open Letter to the MSM" is about 25% complete. I have to keep starting over, due to new issues and information. I plan to take issue with those nuts on Daily Kos who called the article "uniformed" I've been keeping score since the original, so the article is to see just who is really winning at this stage between the MSM and folks like you and me.
