Congressman Curt Weldon (R - Pennsylvania) gave another exclusive interview to Dom Giordano this evening (Monday) and broke the news that he will be giving a speech on September 8th (next Monday) during which he will present yet another 'Able Danger' witness. This new witness will attest (and will swear under oath when called) that he was "ordered to destroy records" relating to the 'Able Danger' program.
This order to destroy the records occurred prior to 9-11-01. Weldon intimated that it happened during the Clinton Administration.
The witness, who Weldon did not name, says that he was ordered to destroy records and was threatened with jail if he failed to comply. Weldon said that he has the names of the people involved, including the person who gave the order, and HE WILL NAME THEM in his speech.
Congressman Weldon also said that his staff has met with Senator Arlen Specter's (R - Pennsylvania) staff regarding the upcoming Judiciary Committee hearings. Weldon wants to be sure that everybody is on the same page. Weldon also said that he will do whatever he has to do to make sure that ALL the facts come out and that the process "is not manipulated".
Curt Weldon is like a pit bull on a steak. He expressed disgust with the "incompetence" of the 9-11 Commission and said that the victims of the 9-11 terror attacks deserve answers. Weldon is determined to see that they get them.
Weldon did express confidence in Tim Roehmer and John Lehman and speculated that perhaps the poor job done by the Commission was the result of an incompetent staff. Weldon sounded amazed and disappointed that so much important information was either glossed over or swept under the rug by the Commission.
Weldon will give his September 8th speech either to the National Press Club or to a "9-11 families" group which has asked him to speak. He apparently hasn't nailed down the exact venue yet.
(For those unfamiliar with Dom Giordano, he is a very good conservative local talk show host here in the Philadelphia area, an area which includes Curt Weldon's district. Weldon comes on Dom's show often and, like this evening, sometimes breaks news.)
Yeah, but snowballs don't last long in August. We'll see.
The plot thickens....Weldon is a damn media mastermind...drip, drip drip
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
WOW! Get all the witnesses into the "Witness Protection Program" right away! I'll be holding my breath until Weldon's speech.... :^)
This gets more and more 'interesting'..... what did the Clintonlites know and when did they know it???
"How is it that this can wait until 9/8?"
Congress isn't in session. Plus, it is August and the only stories right now are Cindy Sheehan stories.
(( ping ))
I hope that Congressman Weldon and his family have good security.
I would hope that since Weldon made this statement, that the "witness" is already being protected. Also, it could be he is playing some games here.....see who comes out of the closet to refute this information.
The 9/11 Political Inquisition commission was set up as a get Bush show trial. Of course the report was going to be a disaster.
Nothing was breathing down their necks at the time.
Wondering the same.
That was my first thought...but then, I started thinking negative things...
and I DO NOT want this to be a false alarm. I want the Clinton Administration and any and all members of the 9/11 Commission that tried to cover this up, to pay....
I want all of the crapola spewed about Bush taken back, and I want all of the stuff that Clinton said about Bin Ladin and Saddam to come out...and the times the Bin Ladin was let go by Clinton.
I am not asking for much, am I?
I'm having a hard time getting too excited about this...knowing Specter is involved. IMO...Weldon just briefed one of the worst good ol' boy RINOS around.
I won't be holding my breath...
FWIW-
"Congress isn't in session. Plus, it is August and the only stories right now are Cindy Sheehan stories."
If it's a real story, it surely CANNOT wait.
The left will try to destroy these witnesses. And Weldon too, for that matter.
What did Bubba know and when did he know it?
I know I say ths all the time but....WHAT DOES JPOD THINK?!!!!
As they used to say on Laugh In. Vewwy Intresting!
Supposedly he is seen on video making a speech with a copy of the fabled Chart in 2002. Does this then mean that he has had possession of documentation himself, so some does still exist?
CNN is busy finding grieving widows to blame Bush
