Something's going on. NO WAY do the scumbag Marxists at State volunteer this kind of information unless they KNOW that the information is forthcoming anyway. This is a pre-emptive strike, no doubt launched so that they have first crack at the spin.
This might be Condi trying to protect one of her people.
Philip Zelikow is a strategic studies analyst who happened to have been on the staff of the 9/11 commission.
Bad job choice, in retrospect, especially if Philip might have come accross any ABLE DANGER information and have conspired to suppress it to protect Gorelick. He immediately becomes a liability that Condi can't keep on. UNLESS Rice has uncovered a treasure trove of incriminating State Documents that add to ABLE DANGER and begin to flesh out the criminal negligence of the Toon national security apparatus, from Berger to Albright to Gorelick on down.
Her buddy Zelikow may have been threatened, in which case Condi, ever the analyst and academic, may have decided to start doing research. There are all sorts of documents concerning Bin Laden's stay in the Sudan that could be unearthed.
No choice on Zelikow. If he conspired to suppress ABLE DANGER to protect Gorelick, he's toast, and should be. Condi can't keep him around. But she'll find a way, you can be sure, to make sure that the 9/11 Commission members who tried to bring her down are damaged in the process.
And they'll never know what hit them when some documents start showing up that concern Gorelick.
Shoot, they could even find their way to Curt Weldon's mailroom.
This stuff from State and the ABLE DANGER affair is showing up in the NYT. That's what's got me spooked. Why aren't the libs covering this up? This kind of thing could directly effect the Missus' electoral prospects.
Be Seeing You,
