Several of Gorelick's colleagues on the commission rushed to her defense, characterizing her as qualified and nonpartisan

Here is how the Gorelick directive describes itself:

These procedures, which go beyond what is legally required, will prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that FISA is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation.

. . . and all this profile in courage cost was four airliners, the twin towers, a wing of the Pentagon, three thousand lives, and a Depression in the airline industry.

"The September 11 Commission" is structured to protect Congress in general and the Democrats therein in particular and, with ben Veniste and especially Gorelick on it, emphatically to protect the Clinton Administration in particular. Notwithstanding the zero-sum nature of the blame to be distributed, a group which is loaded against attacks on the Clinton Administration has no member who is an obvious loyalist of the Bush Administration.

It is no accident that the slant of the commission is exactly the slant we observed in the questioning by "objective journalists" at the recent presidential news conference, since the political coloration of objective journalism^TM drove the composition and indeed the very creation of the commission.

That political coloration is hostility to individual responsibility. That political coloration is expressed as hostility to the party which represents the class which is defined by the individual responsibility of its members. the political coloration of objective journalism^TM is hostility to the middle class and to its political manifestation known as the Republican Party.

The political coloration of objective journalism^TM is betrayed by its insistence that it has no political coloration at all - that its members have no individual responsibility for their own viewpoints and indeed that its members have no viewpoint.

For a later read.

...unfortunately am too damned busy, now.

You & I have gone around on this issue for years: you advocating going after the broadcast mediots, I the print quislings.

Now I'd really like to see your idea of sueing the nets *&* the FCC put to the test and using your legal theory.
Honestly, at this stage of the game what would we have to lose.

By doing nothing the *situation's* only deteriorated.

...& on a daily basis.
