Gorelick just got served. She'd better quit while she's behind.

******Thank you. I have already contacted the Family Liason office by phone.

What did you tell them and how did they respond?*****

A young woman answered the phone. The toll free number was busy for several minutes, so I call the LD number.

I told her that I thought it was very inappropriate for them to react openly at all, but to cheer on bullying, condescending behavior on V's part was one of the most contemptible things that I have seen.

I pretty much went on from there because I was so mad, but that's about line I was taking.

She told me that the two family liasons were there at the hearing.

THAT REALLY SET ME OFF, SINCE THEY WERE MOST LIKELY IN THE CHEERLEADING SQUAD FOR BV.

She took my name and phone number, but I don't expect to hear from them.

But I WILL CALL BACK!!!!

I just mean that Condi has a tough job today. She's doing good.... but her job is tough because the World Trade Center got downed on her watch. I mean that is the bottom line. There are lots of reasons why it happened, but none of them change the bottom line.

She's doing good and I support her, but she's kinda in a no win situation. The best she can hope for is that the American public decides that we were doing what previous admins had done, and that there were internal reasons that we didn't do a good job.

One of the reasons it would've been easier to lock-down for the Mellennium is because you knew when it was happening...there was a specific date.

Great point, the difference between painting the Sistine Chapel, and paint by numbers!

Condi is given a time frame to answer? Come On..no seek for the truth here is all grandstanding. The questions have become statements. Interruptions again no full statements allowed of Condi. Who's wasting time here.

Am a porcupine and my quills are definitely raised!!!

Gore-lick says Clinton had a plan but Condi should have would have could have.

Condi - Tons of plans at Pentagon. Unless those plans are engaged and have a purpose then those plans just sit and rarely get used. Bush wanted plan that brought ALL areas of terrorism together.

Gorelick was Reno's butt girl. She was hand picked by Janet Reno.

I posted this on another thread. It is still a question I want answered. Will I hold my breath? No. I'm not ready to go yet.

Rice, Clarke and September 11

Who's going to investigate why Congress did nothing to prevent 9/11?

Great question!

Who hamstrung the CIA and glutted our human intelligence capabilities? Who put an intelligence sharing "firewall" between the CIA and the FBI? Who cut military spending and downsized our Armed Forces?

IMO, Congress did a great deal. A great deal to make America more vulnerable to terrorists attacks.

A 'plan' from 98 that was never acted upon is better than a plan that was actually implemented in 2001?

What in the name of all that is Holy is this S**t?!!!

It's very obvious that Dr. Rice is beyond compitent and knows precisely what she is talking about. She has more experience than the commission put together and knows that this cannot be presented in sound-bite form and that the answers are not simple.

The commission doesn't get that. Or doesn't want to.

You're so right. Also, don't forget that most of the 9/11 families were very well compensated and so can also afford to hang around DC at the behest of the Dems and Media Benjamin.

It all boils down to the Dems wanting to know why Condi didn't know ahead of time what was going to happen and why she didn't prevent it..... of course the same could be asked of Clinton regarding the 1992 bombing of the World Trade Center......
