Why has no one mentioned the commission on airline safety that Al Gore chaired in the late 90s?

Immediately following the 9/11 attacks, the mother of a man killed in the plane blown up over Lockerbie was on FOX News to discuss having served on the airline safety commission with Gore -

she was angry that Gore personally shot down the recommendation to harden and secure cockpit doors and require them to be locked during flight to avoid hijackings.

Did you just hear on FNC P.J. Crowley say Janet Reno was "shaking every tree" to get info in order to be safe for Y2K? Partisan baloney abounds.

everyone is scared that if they bring Gore back into this he'll feel the need to speak again, and that scares the children. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THINK ABOUT THE CHILDREN

Gore is a moron. That's all that needs to be said.

The airlines were extorted for donations to the DNC and Clinton Campaign. They were told donate or we ruin you by enacting all these recommendations. The person that algore commissioned to do that special report worked as head of a customs unit in Miami. She was one of algores' "friends",and she was anti-police,anti-authority, absolutely incapable of doing the job thoroughly. Gore got her out of the treasury Dept,and outside of having real short hair, she was a hottie with a tennis player -like figure,blond,and attractive. Some credentials!!!!!!
