Massive amt of info destroyed, Gen. Lambert was not consulted when it was destroyed.
Good point, it's win-win for Biden because he gets to posture as a "public servant" (gag) interested in a truly objective bi-partisan investigation and if it happens to harm both the Clintons and Republicans then that's a lot of gravy for the Biden-for-President gravy train..... I still find it hard to imagine Biden as a serious contender, but then I found it hard to imagine John Kerry as a serious contender so.... who knows?
A really good man.
We don't know who shut down the AD guys. They say the Pentagon shut them down. Whether it goes as high as Rumsfeld or not is anyone's guess.
But hearing Brit report tonight that Rumsfeld offered a private briefing to the Committee tells me that Rumsfeld is well aware of what is going on with regard to AD and that he either okay'd the shut down or is standing by letting it happen by other subordinates.
Either way, it's surprising to me because Rumsfeld knows darned well that none of the info is classified, they didn't use government data sources and it was all open source information, for crying out loud.
Rumsfeld has some explaining to do. There may be a good explanation, but nothing I can think of explains his behavior.
on what?? who's he talking to, please?
Thanks. My typing is pretty stinky though - lots of typos. LOL
Jumping in where I wasn't invited, I agree with Peach. I have heard, and repeated, the same thing about Bush. It started the day he took office and the White House was missing things that Miss Hillary had walked off with, if you remember.
Weldon: Slate Gordon had the audacity, the stupidity, to say this never happened.
"Weldon: This is not America, this is wrong."
YES!!! Go weldon!
Never mind the typos! The info is what matters!
Weldon to Savage,"this story deserves to be investigated by all the resources we have"
For sure, the best.
You don't need to be invited to post your opinion.
I understand when freepers have a problem with some posters who repeatedly make negative comments about the Bush administration. I will defend the administration against those posters every time.
But there is such a thing as legitimate criticism and I don't want FR to become just an echo chamber. That is absolutely useless to the conservative movement, imo.
On Savage, here's a link to listen online:

Some times I look at what I typed and can barely understand it myself so I'm hoping you can all get the gist of what I'm trying to say. LOL
Sounds like it may have been Rummy, unless I'm misinterpreting what Weldon just said now.
"Good point, it's win-win for Biden because he gets to posture as a "public servant" (gag) interested in a truly objective bi-partisan investigation and if it happens to harm both the Clintons and Republicans then that's a lot of gravy for the Biden-for-President gravy train.....

Yes, but Biden has the charisma of a flea (like John Kerry). So if he is able to capitalize on torpedoing the Crintons, then it is more likely that we don't have to deal with the threat from Hitlery and thei Crintons will lose their political grip on the DNC. They will be shoved aside quicker than sh*t.
However, defeating Hitlery could bring about the rise of Evan Bayh and this man could fool a lot of people....he is very scary. Just like Osama Obama (but he won't run in 08).
I can't wait to hear what Rummy has to say.
Weldon just said families of 911 victims were there today,now that's hot.They won't be buffaloed they have already lost everything they loved.I would not want to fool with them.
Weldon:
Democracy still works, outrage still works.
Contact your reps, he says.
Demand the facts. No more coverups!
