I was sick all last night and was watching late reruns on Foxnews. They have a great 1 or 2 minute newsbreak with Jim Angle that hammers Gorelick and highlights Ashcrofts relevant testimony. I haven't see it yet during the day, but it is devastating, as it talks about how the "wall" Gorelick setup essentially divided the FBI into two separate entities (one for intel/another for criminal investigation) that could no longer correspond with one and other. Ashcroft is also shown reading a letter before the 9/11 commisssion from an FBI agent, stating that this wall will one-day be responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans.

They also briefly touched on the Moussaoui case, and how he was arrested on August 15, 2001, but FBI agents were refused a search warrant of his laptop because the Gorelick Memorandum added further restrictions to FISA, as the FBI denied the warrant based on these new restrictions. Showing a clip from the Gorelick memo, Angle highlighted how it plainly stated, in the memorandum, how it "went beyond what was legally required." The Gorelick rules were meant to ensure that "no 'proactive' investigative efforts or technical coverages" of terrorist suspects be carried out on U.S. soil. It was the best two minute summation I have seen...and it alone, should be enough remove this dangerous woman. Play it again, FOX.

When the leftists say the war against terrorism should be a police matter and not a military matter, what they mean is that every foreign terrorist should enjoy all the rights of an American citizen -- there would be no military action against terrorists, and any terrorist who was accidentally caught in this country would get a "fair" trial. It also means that there would be an iron wall between the military, CIA, and FBI to prevent them from sharing intelligence. If the CIA knew the identity of a terrorist about to enter this country, they could not warn the FBI and the military could not take out the terrorist. After the terrorist blows up a building, the trial lawyers will get rich suing whover made the "defective" building that could be destroyed by bombs, etc. The leftists can't be all stupid -- I figure they know that they will make terrorism worse and they want to cash in on it.
