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.)
Just what it said in the article Happy, Weldon has a witness who said they were "ordered to destroy records" relating to the 'Able Danger' program.
It happened prior to 9/11, during the Clinton administration and the witness will name names.
My new T-shirt reads:

Back: "Or you will be found draped over a cannon!"
Weldon had better watch his ass... Check 6!
Preempertory = peremptory, for the record
Yeah. He says he was just looking through documents to remind him of the past so he'd be able to answer the 9/11 commission questions correctly. He said he just "borrowed some" and put them back. He also said, because he brought back less than he took, that he was just destroying "copies."
He was charged for making that "little mistake".
Hear! Hear! Well stated.
Wanna play a little 5 card stud, Lancey?
Weldon is very tough and he has been around for a long time. He knows exactly what he is doing. I think he's getting help, and I think his back is covered.
for the same reason sticky notes were put over their faces - some one didnt want anyone to know they existed -- or if so, where
I believe I read "someplace" that Berger was cooperating. Reading BETWEEN the lines, I'd say Berger dumped his guts for the light sentence. (Hanson, the spy got a ridiculous light sentence in exchange for "cooperating). In other words, Berger's not willing to do jail time for Bubba and/or crew.

Your wish is granted in post 231.
That would be great. I hope so.

BINGO!
'Limbaugh interviewed Weldon about a week ago for the newsletter. I will be interested to see if he trusted Rush enough to give him some advance notice of things he will be revealing soon.'
make sure you ping me when you see that news letter, you hear???
Please??
Brought back less than he took? They should have started asking the tough questions. How suspect. If one is going to bother returning them, why just return a portion of them?
Thanks for that info Cap.
I am nearly positive that there is a connection.
Jamie Gorelick.... Sandy Burglar called to testify before the 9-11 Commission hearings.... It all fits.
Thanks for that. I don't want to miss this upcoming speech/new conference.
Weldon said tonight that the records destruction he was discussing was significant. IIRC, he said it was the worst he'd seen since Watergate.
"That sounds like manipulation to me."
It's called: drip drip drip.
LOL, that's cute. I kindof feel like that tonight!
Weldon is very tough, very careful, and he has been around for a long time. He knows exactly what he is doing. I think he's getting help, and I think his back is covered.
