Webster was successful.
Not as successful as your hero Al Gore was at scuttling the recommendations of the airline security commission for hardened cockpit doors and other increased airplane security measures, in response to the airlines' lobbying. Within one week of Gore scrubbing the commission's report of recommendations that the airlines did not want, the airlines donated over $250,000 to the Democratic National Committee.
The only thing Condi Rice failed to do was understand how badly the Clinton-Gore administration sold out our national security for campaign contributions.
I'm not defending Gore!
