You wrote, "I think your being a little hard on Abraham, since many of those recommendation were being made two years ago to avoid a situation like Thursday."
The same recommendations were made by Richardson x number of years ago. That's one of the points: this is just mouth music. Talk, talk, talk. But why try to dissemble about what you know?

But why try to dissemble about what you know?

I think his 'dissembling' was to avoid being held to anything firm until the specific cause is found. While Brit probably wouldn't pull a 'gotcha' on him, some leftist would. At that point he only had a list of 'highly probables', nothing definative, I don't blame him for covering his @$$ in case some other facts come to light from the investigation. This administation has learned(I hope) not to say anything that can't be independently backed up completely.
