Barney Frank has Blame in 9/11
Massachusetts News ^ | 6-13-2006 | Eric Francke

Posted on 06/13/2006 6:30:23 AM PDT by francke

A recent “Freedom of Information” request has revealed that nearly 10,000 documents still exist that the 9/11 Commission were told were destroyed, and this may not fare very well for Barney Frank. According to Scott Malone of NavySeals.com and Christopher Law from the Public Education Center, these documents show that the CIA knew that several of the hijackers on 9/11 who were in the country were associated with Al-Qaeda. But authorities were powerless to deport them because of an amendment to an immigration law that Frank had authored.

The horrors of malfeasance, criminality and incompetence that led to 9/11 will continue to surface for years. The big ruse, the 9/11 Commissson, was an afront to the American people, a massive effort to hide and bury the real truths about the Clinton adminstration, its complicity, its incompetence, its deliberate efforts to hamstring our intel community, that kept the path open for 9/11.

Reopen the 911 commission and the cover up that the 911 commission was.

Why would our elected act against America? Political Correctness and stupidity. Gorelick and Frank are but two of many who use social tyranny blindly - they haven't the brains to be making law - they are social misfits. The 9/11 Commission was totally derelict in their duties for political reasons...and that was and is wrong! Scrap the Commission’s report; is it almost blasphemy in the face of every bit of truth that continues to surface.

The Frank amendment, however, put the burden of proof on the government to show that the individuals in question had previously engaged in terrorist activity.

After 9/11, when the problem of his amendment became obvious, Barney Frank still opposed denying visas to individuals even though they had been associated with terrorist organizations.

The Patriot Act restored the Federal government’s ability to bar or deport those who were affiliated with known terror groups. Frank however opposed the change that kept those sympathetic to terrorists out of the U.S. Regarding this, he wrote: "the mere espousal or endorsement, of terrorist activity casts far too wide a net of exclusion.”

What kind of net of INCLUSION do we need to cast Barney? Do we need more and more people in this country? Do we need more people who are known to be hostile to this country in this country? Why do you want them here Barney?

Another ignorant, dangerous fool.

Not to mention those who supported the amendment, and those who didn't prevent it from becoming law.

yep, let us trust those in DC, they always look out for the people. I'm terribly dismayed the Republicans helped cover up these crimes against the people of this nation. Many a demonrat should have been tried for treason, but they (the traitors) went home after those who died on 911 did not. The mere fact many of these traitors are still in office speaks volumes to me.

More than interesting. . .but not surprising, for sure given the MO of our 'Lib/Left' in Washington.(or anywhere, for that matter)

I am wondering 'who' put Barney up to proposing such legislation; I am assuming, Bill Clinton. . .who managed-coereced-paid. . . his Demrat minions to facillitate in his own 'Treason-for-money' programs.

The only thing that is surprising is the cover these slimy people use. . .i.e. a never-ending barrage of the most arrogant and damning of attacks against George Bush et al. . .for the sins they know are their own. . .

Meantime. . .surely the Repubs knew of the existance of the 'facts'. . .but I guess if they used them as a threat; for sure; they would be missing; in less than a heart-beat. . .perhaps. OR was it Hillary's holding of the FBI files. . .

. . .and the blockbuster movie that promises to slap the audience with the 'truth of the matter' is coming out soon. . .(just a bit more editing).

Right. . . and in our dreams. . .

In many professions, those who screw up and do damage can thus be sued for their errors and omissions. I don't understand why we can't do the same with judges and politicians. For that matter, why isn't Gorelick in jail???

How often it is true that, when you are looking for a coverup, the investigation itself is the coverup. Investigations very often are used, not to uncover information and make it known, but rather to manage information.

The presence of Gorelick on the 911 was a bright red flag for anyone to see. The 911 commission was not an investigation, it was the visible face of the coverup. Too many people had too much to hide for there to be more than a carefully sanitized airing of the facts.

The method is simple and classic. Investigate certain areas in such tedious detail that everyone's heads will overload, make certain details the subject of intense scrutiny while skipping past other questions as being unimportant or settled truth.

These managed investigations are not without their utility. Some information slips through, because not everyone realizes which details will prove to be inconvenient tomorrow, and which details will be the thread that unravels the cover story.
