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.)
Nice analysis!
Thanks.
Yes. They thought it was going to be a landslide. When it turned out Bush won, they started to scramble. They destroyed the WH computers and the files were torn apart. The WH was trashed.
still wondering what Sandy Burgler toke out in his pants. Were the items related to the Able Danger and they continue to blame Bush. The Lord works in ways we dont even know.
he was ordered to destroy records and was threatened with jail if he failed to comply
Sandy Burglar and the 9/11 commission both had missions to accomplish -- and neither were "incompetent". The primary objective of the 9-11 Commission was to absolve the federal government of any culpability. Seems to me, this objective was attained. In that pursuit, Burglar acted knowing that he would have a "get out of jail free card". Game. Set. Match. WE THE PEOPLE loose.
BIG TIME!
You'd get a more certain answer from a Magic 8 Ball. I wish I could say how things will turn out, but in this crazy world, it could break either way.
All I can say for certain right now is that Weldon will be demonized; the "mainstream" of the administration will leave him twisting in the wind; and the Leftists in Congress (both Democrats and RINOs) will accelerate their push to impeach Bush in order to draw attention away from this issue.
That's what I see coming down the pipeline. I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt I am.
I am a frequent listener to Dom's program but wasn't listening this evening. Thanks for the briefing and sorry I missed it.
I agree with you. Spector, the enforcer of "Scottish" law, is a problem!
I'm sure that Weldon has made arrangements in the event of an untimely death. He knows how the Clinton's work.
Those look tasty. Where's the rest?
That you are either far to young to know much history, or are old enough and either never knew any, or have forgotten what you once knew. So, which is it?
He/She AND Weldon better have a lot of trusted body guards. Hiliary isn't going to like this!
Hmmmmmm.....there's something about "toke" and "Sandy Burgler's pants" that just ain't right.
Wonder if Hitlery will try to cozy up to Arlen and see what he knows. Or her staff could chat up his staff - you tell us this and we'll assure you Hitlery will vote for _____.
That's not the way it will be played. Look for a big sex scandel or a Missing Blonde.
Bump!
You're memory is either faulty, or you're relying on what you read about him and his work in naming stinking Commies in the government,in the newspapers and heard on T.V,; all of which was lies.
Destroyed during the Clinton administration? I'm shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you!!!!!
