Do you know/can you say Who is giving Mr. Weldon flak?
The cover up by the former 911 Commission Members and lack of follow up in the media is astounding.
No, it is not astounding (and I do know what you mean by this.) It's TYPICAL of these "show glory hounds". It's always about the money. I've been meaning to look into exactly what each commission "member" is making in money or perks for being on this "om-(mani-padre-hum)mission".
There is adequate reason for both parties to bury the Able Danger story. Clinton's dereliction of duty on prosecuting Bin Laden and Al Queda and of course Bush will be blamed because of 911 happening on his watch
More than ample reason why Clintonoids are shushing it; but the Dems really shot off their footsies (a la D-Cynthia McKinney) in their "Bush Knew and Planned it" 9-11 sing-song at onset. If they'd a waited, they could have tried "it's Bush's fault"; but obviously, they saved that song for Katrina, and other natural disasters. The timing of 9-11 happened far too soon after the President's inaugguration for it even to remotely seem as "his fault on his watch".
IMO the evidence that Able Danger did identify Atta and the 911 terrorists is that we had pictures of all the 911 hijackers in a matter of a few hours after the attacks. Just how did that happen? I guess they just pulled those pictures out of thin air. Silly me.
Nope. You are not being silly. Those photos were so instantly available, I've no doubts the AB data has been preserved, and under another "project title".
