Good for Weldon....keep the focus on the Commission and its apparent cover-up.

I can see Tom Kean, Lee Hamilton and Jamie Gorelick with the monkey hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil smiles on their faces. Absolutely disgusting.

Looks like we need a 9-11 Commission Commission.

1) I want to know why Gorelick, the woman responsible for The Wall, was put in charge of looking at all the information coming in to the 9/11 Commission and deciding what got disseminated to the full Commission.

It doesn't make sense that the Commission investigating intelligence failures would put the woman in charge of making sure that intelligence people couldn't talk to each other in charge of disseminating information.

2) I want to know why the Commission has changed their stories 4 times.

3) There is an article on FR now that Commission members say the Able Danger operative who briefed them didn't have back-up. The article states the Able Danger operative briefed the Commission one time.

Weldon clearly says they were briefed 3 times.

4) Did it occur to the Commission to wonder why, within hours of the 9/11 attacks, we were able to so easily identify the 19 hijackers and that Atta was the ringleader?

We now know it's probably because of Able Danger.

5) Since Able Danger culled its information using open sources, surely that same information was available to the 9/11 Commission.

Did they only investigate information that was brought to them (and they didn't even do that appropriately we now understand) or did they do any investigation on their own?

If they did do investigating on their own, why didn't they find out what Able Danger found out using open sources?

6) Why did the Commission in charge of investigating intelligence failures itself have an intelligence failure in terms of not sharing ALL information that was brought to them?

I will continue to push for a full accounting of the historical record so that we may preclude these types of failures from happening again.”

A start in the right direction but not enough. Someone is guilty of dereliction of duty. Someone is guilty of compromising our nation's security.The wall of immunity for these individuals must be torn down and they should be prosecuted. Nothing short of prison time will do.

If the feds can put Martha Stewart behind bars for making questionable profits in a business transaction then surely prison is justified for those causing 3000+ deaths through intent or gross negligence!!!

Enough of blanket immunity and coverages for the ruling class. Time to kick some political a**, on all levels.

Wouldn't you think some New York senators would be really eager to find out what allowed this plot to kill so many of their constituents?

Wouldn't you???

On September 11, when his office received the passenger manifests of the four hijacked flights, the agent shouted: “This is the same Almihdar we’ve been talking about for three months.” In a parody of bureaucratic buck-passing, his supervisor responded: “We did everything by the book.”

How 'The Wall' worked so well to keep terrorism alive.

I was watching FoxNews earlier this morning and happened to watch the usual weekend exchange between Ellen Ranting Ratner and Jim Pinkerton. [I try to avoid those two whenever possible, but accidents happen and I turned on the TV too early this morning. But I digress.......]

'Rantner', surprisingly, was right on. She was saying the 'problem' was a failure of agency communications.

DING DING DING We have a winner.

Disappointingly, Pinkerton failed to take advantage of that admission and rambled an incoherent excuse of a lack of policy as early as 2000.

===

Pinkerton should have taken Rantner's admission of the failure of agency communications and used Rantner's own words against her to drive the point down the court and make an easy and obvious score. It would have been a slam-dunk to bring up the Gorelick Wall.

Pinkerton wasn't up to the task. Rantner gave him the gun and even gave him the bullet. Pinkerton dropped it on his foot.

Kean has already issued a statement that the Able Danger information was not considered historically significant by the 911 commission.

The task assigned to ABLE DANGER was to identify and target Al-Qaeda on a global basis and, through the use of cutting edge technology (data-mining, massive parallel processing, neural networking and human factors analysis) and enhanced visualization and display tools, present options for leaders (national command authority) to manipulate, degrade or destroy the global Al-Qaeda infrastructure.

Government technology run by the left is worthless and did nothing to stop the twin towers from being destroyed.

Able Danger is just the tip of the iceberg. If you knew all the stuff the partisan staffers whitewashed from the report, you would explode.

I thought the RATs were sure that Bush had prior knowledge about the 9-11 attack.

Turns out that certain RATs knew; they just didn't share with the incoming administration.

Must keep this front and center!

Fox News just did a short story on this, but it was as complete as this posting.

This could get knock the libs and the MSM off of the Judge Roberts attack and put them on defense through the '06 elections with impacts on the '08 elections.

Our new mascot should be a "Dog with a sock".

The reason that the commission staff didn't mention the existence of info from the ABLE DANGER unit is very simple, the entire commission was set up to be a politically palatable whitewash from the very beginning. It's sole function was to protect the inept dishonest self aggrandizing folks that are elected to Congress.
