Even if a photo emerged with Saddam's arm around Bin Laden at Salman Pak, folks would still remain unconvinced...

LOL and for sure. . ."caring Democrats" are safe from media scrutiny. (I mean who knew Kerry and Clinton were 'Air-Ameriscam' investors. . .)
Well, I didn't anyway. . .but another case of . . .If it were a Repub. . .

read the thread, most people here who seem to be in the know regarding how classified documents are handled, say that he cannot have copies of these documents sitting around in his house. now if he has some stashed copies of them, he had better start leaking them now, because this thing is going to be swept under the rug otherwise.
To: wagglebee
Well, that's the difference between the United States and China or the old Soviet Union. In those countries, the government would have tortured Shaffer to death in some back room the moment he opened his mouth. Our government is much more humane - they just make the documents disappear and leave Shaffer looking like an idiot. Achieves the same end with less of a mess. ;)

Thanks for the link. I listened to the whole show. A Freeper called in. He thanked Lt. Col. Shaffer for being a great patriot and said many people appreciate his efforts, especially those at Free Republic.
Anyone know who called in?

did the callers (or the host even) follow up on this question about where the documents are?
To: Marine_Uncle
Out of the entire group involved in Able Danger someone has to have copies in electronic or print out form. I do it at work myself because when I work on really important things I don't even trust the IT guy to protect me from lost time and a deadline that doesn't understand computer failure or a lousy IT manager, I need assurance.
Almost everyone I work with in my office has the ability to burn a CD and I do often as a data CD that can be reused. If someone didn't retain all the information considering its size, I would bet the most important information was.
CYA always.

To an extent?
They're all buddies...all in on it together. It's a matter of which side will do less damage.

"...now if he has some stashed copies of them, he had better start leaking them now, because this thing is going to be swept under the rug otherwise."
Sadly if he has copies, he will end up pounding rocks, he is not a Sandy Burgler.

but in an environment where the material is classified, having individual people making CD copies of it and taking them home, is not going to be the normal mode of operation.
To: oceanview
all of the paper trail for this is gone? how is that possible, in the age of computers, Lt. Col. Shaffer is a flake?
To: Republican Red
"I thought I heard on Tony Snow show last week that the other members of Able Danger DO have documents. If I remembering correctly, the other AD guys are trying to get clearance to come forward. They do have copies or other documentation." Yes! I heard the SAME thing..........boy, I hope the others trying to get security clearance are HEAVILY, HEAVILY guarded, along with THEIR documentation............if not, THEN I'd say 'good chance of this goin' nowhere!!'

What the hell does the O\S have to do with backup systems? I've seen no backups on Unix as well. Hell, I've seen backups that have been corrupt since the day they started backups and therefore there are no backups. Personally, I do triple backups on my software (as well as offsite) and I run Windows. I dare say I run a better backup system than most Unix shops.
Oh, btw, Windows has been multi-user for a long time. They don't have to be which is why they took over the world: no more IT shops dictating policy (which software you install, when you can work, when you can use a tape drive, etc.). Thank God that communism failed and centralized IT went with it. Same mentality IMO.

They don't give names just locations. The caller was from Florida.

"So there may yet be a "trail" of communications to back up the claims Able Danger is making. If you catch my drift."
Well, I do. . .and I don't (!). . .but whatever the case; if there is political will for this. . .then what needs to be found, I am sure, will be.
For all this; do not understand, GW's 'endorsement and praise' of this Committee work. . . which he knew had to be fraudulent.
