"Every president has those people with whom they can "contract with" to do special work...for the country, of course."
Who? Americans? Is it legal? Did the September 11 Commission hear any of that?
WHAT DID GORELICK KNOW about that? Is that why she did not testify to the Commission? I could go on and on.
No, not just Americans. People who are most able to do the job. Mostly contracted through the CIA. These are the methods that the Church commission tried to stop.
I think it's not legal and can be horribly misused...but my opinion is that all presidents have used some form of "contractor."
