Clarke, sworn in to tell the truth...........think he'll do it?

He will give his warped thinking of what he thinks happened

From what I have heard about this book .. alot of it is what he thought people were thinking

I guess Clarke is a mind reader

[Pukin Dog]

At your service, sexy.

[ohioWfan]

LOL! Somebody tell him to shut up and sit down.

FROM THE NATIONAL REVIEW CORNER JUST A WHILE AGO!!!!!!

ANTI-CLARKE BOMBSHELL [Rich Lowry]

Watch for a story about to break in the media this morning that will make Clarke look pretty foolish. More soon...

Killing OBL before 9/11, as Rummy said yesterday, would have made the WTC attacks seem to the rest of the world justified revenge for killing OBL.

One of Clarke's aides was on Scarabrough the other night..who was with him and the president. He did say that Bush told them to look at Iraq...but unlike Clarke who sees a conspiracy, the aide said that Bush wanted them to look at everybody and that he didn't find anything intimidating about Bush's request, and in fact, found it a normal request to what had just happened.

[StriperSniper]

I don't know, I didn't hear that they released them.

[NYC GOP Chick]

I thought Ben-Veniste and that scary Gorelicker broad are the most partisan -- although the field is quite open!

[Howlin]

It also depends on how much of a freak Clarke is -- he probably heard what HE wanted to hear.....Bush saying "Find out what Iraq has to do with this" and him thinking to himself "What? This guy thinks Iraq did this," when all Bush might have been saying was check everything.

I've read some other stuff on the internet about Clarke and cybersecurity. The computer people think he's an absolute paranoid freak. They mock him openly.

[Just mythoughts]

"He is so over the top in his exhibition of anger to each testifier that he is useless as an 'information gatherer.'"


This is so true.

The whole panel has talked to all these people behind closed doors and this is nothing more than CODE language for the WORLD to see and hear.

Their questions and language used is not about informing the public. What they seek to give to the public is this "supposed indignation".

[CharlieOK1]

funny. I just typed in 'Gorelick' to google to find out more about this person. Guess who else's last name is Gorelick...

[ohioWfan]

The things I've read from it were, "I looked at him/her and he/she looked like he/she was thinking....." kind of comments.

The 'blank look' he said Condi had was laughable!

[cwb]

The republicans are asking questions; the democrats are making statements. Kerrey admitted as much.

[Darlin']

Kerrey is asking emotional questions, he stirs up the disgruntled in audience. He is playing to that crowd, I'm afraid.

[Miss Marple]

Well, that's good news! I wonder what we will find out!

[arasina]

LOL! No wonder he goes by Benny 'G'

[BigSkyFreeper]

Now I know why he calls himself Kenny G instead of Kenny Gorelick.

[Howlin]

I have absolutely NO idea; for all I know, Richard Clarke gave it to him.

[arasina]

LOL! No wonder he goes by Kenny 'G'

[Mo1]

Got any more details????
