Gorelick should not be on the commission. She is a partisan political hack! And should be fired from the commission.

For that matter, George Stephanopolous should should not be on ABC acting like a journalist. He is a partisan political hack! And should be fired.

Neither one of these things will happen.

Just to provide a complete version of the "Six Degrees of George Stephanopolous" - allow me to repeat this:

In Stephanopoulos' White House memoir he includes his recollection of a scene at the White House on the day the O.J. Simpson criminal trial verdict was coming down. He sets the scene with Clinton, Stephanopolous and Jamie Gorelick watching a TV monitor in one office of the White House - nervously anticipating a conviction. Stephanopoulos relates that Gorelick had in her hand a drafted statement to be read in the White House press room in a few moments after an O.J. conviction. The statement was to announce a federal civil rights investigation into Mark Fuhrman - as an attempt to mollify what the White House expected was going to be rioting in the streets in L.A. and elsewhere. Of course she never had to read that statement.

If she's going to argue for Condoleezza Rice supplying the text of the speech she never read on the afternoon of 9/11, then I think it would be nice for someone to mine the archives of the Clinton Administration and find the text of the statement Gorelick was prepared to read but never had to due to the shocking acquittal of O.J.. Simpson. Nothing says "political hack" like having ginned up a federal civil rights investigation simple as a political antidote to thugs rioting in the streets. And the best part is that while Gorelick could be wasting her time trying to smooth out the concerns of Maxine Waters, et. al., she couldn't be bothered to investigate the possible Federal prosecution of O.J. Simpson on Federal Conspiracy to commit murder charges, or for violation (in the extreme) of the civil rights of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown.

Replacing her would give the RATS a chance to put someone more effective in her place. She has repeatedly shown herself to be an idiot with inane questions and long-winded rambles which consume her own time to grandstand.
