It is very interesting that Ms. GORE LICK is the best representative that the Democraps could appoint as someone to do fact finding!

I think a better description would be someone who could plant a cancer into the workings of the 911 Commission (aided and abetted by Benveniste).

Well this is interesting, the memo is NOT dated from what I see.

National Review has the PDF along with Drudge. If I'm missing a date, someone please let me know.

Then something is up.
Chambliss is a playa, and if he isn't calling for her head, then that means someone needs another trip to the BRIAR PATCH.....

Heads up, folks, somethings coming.

"You think you are gonna ask me why I dared refuse repeat DOJ requests for investigations of dangerous illegal aliens.
You think you are gonna ask me why I arranged to stovepipe intelligence to make intraagency effective communication useless.
You think you are gonna ask me why illegal aliens who were felons became voters for our Democratic party.
You think you are gonna ask me why I OK'd the use of stolen FBI files on DNC computers.
Not a chance. Following LBJ, your gonads are in my fist.
Your FBI files are in my computer. Now go away.

Freeh: Gorelick Ignored Terror Warnings
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1116070/posts

I'm still looking for the 1995 memo in question. If anybody finds it please post it. I must agree with those saying that Gorelick has questions to answer and thus shouldn't be amongst those asking questions.

Then again, the 9/11 commission ceased being a 'fact-finding' body once the cameras began rolling during an election year.

Look who Dem voters are - broken folks looking for someone to rescue them from themselves and find them blameless.

Anger = Manipulation = FEAR

Democrats = Anger = Manipulation

They certainly do appear to be "dysfunctional"; they alternate between being victims to being fearmongers! Their craddle to grave mentality must be in their DNA!

Gorelick's a Democrat, so there will be no call by the media for her to step down, and thus she will bet on the American people being kept in the darfk about her obvious conflict of interest, and she will stay on the panel. If she were a Republican, and had the same conflict of interest, she would be the lead news story on every network and would be the headline on all the print media. The double standard is breathtaking in its obviousness.

WHO is Jamie Gorelick?? From the American Spectator

Jamie Gorelick in the Hot Seat

By The Prowler Published 4/12/2004 12:07:29 AM

Republican staffers on the 9-11 Commission are looking for a way to place commission member Jamie Gorelick before the body she sits on to explain the Clinton Justice Department's seeming lack of interest in counter-terrorism activities.

According to a Republican commission staffer, some are outraged at the continued leaks by Democrats on the commission, which are being coordinated to embarrass upcoming members of the Bush Administration set to testify before the commission.

The latest example was a memo from the spring of 2001 issued by the Department of Justice, with newly confirmed Attorney General John Ashcroft signing off on it. Ashcroft is scheduled to testify on Tuesday, April 13th. The memo, according to Democratic 9-11 staffers who leaked it late last week, shows that the Bush Justice Department did not have terrorism on their list of seven top priorities, which included corporate fraud prosecutions and civil rights protections.

What the Democratic staffers fail to mention is that those priorities were set by outgoing Attorney General Janet Reno, and reflect priorities that were put in place by former Deputy Attorney General Gorelick in her time at the Department.

"[Gorelick] knows better than anyone about what was going on at Justice in the later days of the Clinton Administration. She had close ties there," says the staffer. "In closed-door meetings she has defended the Clinton people. How can they claim that Ashcroft and his people could do much of anything six weeks into moving into the building?"

For months, Republican staffers have been warning the White House and Senate leadership about the Democratic political operatives on the 9-11 Commission, and their plans for election-year games with the fact-finding on the terrorist attacks. Yet the White House has been seemingly surprised by how politically charged the hearings have been.

Now Republican staffers would like to play some politics as well. "Gorelick should be testifying during these hearings; she should not be up there creating the appearance she played no role in what happened on 9-11, because she definitely did," says the staffer. "The Clinton folks had eight years to do something about Bin Laden. They did nothing. The Bush people had eight months. You'd think judging by the hearings that it was the other way around. We have to hit back."

Arlin Specter was on Rush. I didn't know it was him until the interview ended. He was calling on Gorelick to testify.

No need for tin foil hats...Gorelick also covered up Flight TWA 800:

On Aug. 22, 1996, just a few days before the start of the Democratic National Convention, Ms. Gorelick oversaw a critical Justice Department meeting with the FBI. Immediately after this meeting, as it happened, all serious inquiry into the fate of TWA 800 came to an end.

On the next day, for instance, the FAA began to inquire whether any dog-training exercises had ever taken place on the plane that would become TWA 800. On the same day, as CNN reported, the FBI now claimed publicly for the first time that the explosive residue found along the right wing "could have been brought on the plane by a passenger and was not part of a bomb." Likewise, after the meeting, the FBI would do no more eyewitness interviews, at least not for the next two months. The Bureau only did a handful after that – and all of those for the wrong reasons.

It would have been DATE/TIME stamped in the upper right hand corner! It had to be DATE/TIME STAMPED - that is the official rule of all memorandums (big and small); and this is a "biggie!" Wonder if Hillary would call this an "unforseen event?"

Specter got nailed for accepting money from George Soros.
He'll be calling for mass immigration reforms before the day is over.

If McVeigh had ties to Saudi nationalists or Saddam's payroll, his "international" intel would be walled off from his "domestic" plans to bomb the Murrah Federal Building. Perfect point to make regarding Gorelick and her policies. We should call this the "Spring of terror"

Look up Richard Clarke/VVAW titled thread on Free Republic by a person named Fedora.

In-depth research on all these folks. I'd link, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

"Wow, a Republican with a spine? Maybe he can share with the rest of the "leadership"."

Sensenbrenner was a House manager during Impeachment; he's no stranger to standing the post when so many others do not/will not.
