Tonight Shaffer, with his usual concise and direct style, gave us new tidbits to ponder.
In response to Hannity's question regarding how and why the infomation was not passed along Shaffer offered, "A two star general repremanded him in his strenuous insistance that the information regarding Atta and three others should be passed to the FBI. He was blocked and blocked completly by this two star who went so far as to upbraid him and remind him he was a general and Shaffer was not. "
This is one more significan blow to the criminal actions of the 9/11 CYA commission and perhaps a certain general. I can't wait till his name comes out. Perhaps he is no longer in the chain of command as sure he would still be working to block this coming out.
Although it didn't get much notice on FR earlier today information from Shaffer stated that the Bush Administration had known about these revelations since two weeks after 9/11. Very nearly four years. evidently they chose to let sleeping dogs lie. Probably part of Bush's 'New Tone in Washington' plan.
All the world knows that Gorelick as Clinton's servant in the Attorney General's office was tasked to hamstring law enforcement at the federal level in order to protect Clinton from prosecution or exposure in his many illegal escapades and fund raising. Thus 'The Wall'.
Then in a master stroke of rare genius Gorelic was put on the 9/11 CYA Commission in order to put in the fix. The world was not to know just how horribly the Clinton Adminstration had dropped the ball in protecting this nation from terrorism.
Nobody on FR however wants to talk about why the Bush administration accepted this outrage of Gorelick on the Commision. Nor do they wish to speak of why the sickening failure brought to light by Shaffer was allowed to go unremarked by same.
Let the chips fall where they may.
I'd like the truth and the goods on Clinton, no matter what the fallout.
Good. Me too.
You may be the first person in history to describe Tom Daschle as a genious.
I, myself, think the exposure of this cover-up will have a bigger impact because the White House didn't expose it (at least not directly). tee hee.
I was Carville's idea I'm sure. ;^}
I mentioned this on another thread. The horrible irony is the Pentagon was also hit that day. I want to hear someone mention that in the media.
I don't know, but it seems to me that the name "Gore Lick" just has to be one of the supreme ironies of fate in the modern world.
Next, we will find out that his assistant's name is Bill Clintonasskiss.
That would mean he was another post Clinton sacrificial card kept in just long enough to maintain the legacy fix.
Tom is deeply saddened. This is a series issue. The implications are hugh.
Even a blind man can see that the Bush clan has 'embraced' Bubba Clinton and are providing him 'protection'. "Birds of a feather........."
Shaffer worked at the DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency), along with the rest of the Able Danger Team. It's not clear just when AD was underway, but the plug was certainly pulled before 9/11. The following were the commanding generals/admirals of the DIA in the 1990s: LTG Harry Soyster (Dec 88-Sep 91); Mr. Dennis Nagy (Sep 1991-Nov 1991) an acting civilian; LTG James Clapper (Nov 91-Aug 95); LTG Kenneth Minihan (Aug 95-Feb 96); LTG Patrick Hughes (Feb 96-Jul 99); VADM Thomas R. Wilson (Jul 99-Jul 02); VADM Lowell Jacoby (Jul 02-present). What did they know, and when did they know it.
""Bush Administration had known about these revelations since two weeks after 9/11. Very nearly four years. evidently they chose to let sleeping dogs lie. Probably part of Bush's 'New Tone in Washington' plan.""
Revenge is a dish best served cold. Once again the President Bush checks his hand and suckers in the opposition.
Why go all in with your Royal Flush when you can get the other guy to do it first?
Wow...amazing..Matt Drudge is out to lunch on this story. Hitlery/McAsshat and their statement on global warming is the lead item.
"The horrible irony is the Pentagon was also hit that day.
I believe the attack on the Pentagon actually killed some 7 employees of the Defense Intelligence Agency, the same agency involved in Able Danger. Perhaps one of those killed was a friend of an AB team member or maybe that at least helped motivate Shaffer's coming forward. On 9/11, I was about a mile from the Pentagon and had to go back into my office because the smoke from the fire was so bad and it was blowing our way.
At that point it was moot, nearly. A headhunt is likely to have generated considerable reactances from the military, and we needed the military right then and there to work cohesively.
Now is a much better time for it. The military has gone to war, new leaders are in place in the field, the house can be cleaned so we can go forward without the encumbrances of the MSM fairytales and all the holdover counterforces.
All I'm saying is, the Democrat leadership aka Daschle picked the 5 Dems on the committee. Bill probably called Daschle and told him to put Gorelick on the Ommision Commision.
If I had to guess at the identity of the general, I'd lean toward Merrill McPeak.
He is in territory that could actually assign names to those who blocked our opportunity to stop Atta and his deadly islamofacist thugs from slaughtering thousands of American citizens.
If those whose names may appear are protected by saying they were following the rules set by gorelick and clinton...the rules that allowed klitonian thuggery without fear of indepth investigation
(ie...their chinese money grubbing, their rewriting of the rules of trading so that the COMMERCE DEPT and NOT the Dept of Defense were responsible for VETTING materials for sale that were potentially lethal to our security - how's THAT for the WORST SORT OF MONEY EXCHANGE ? A windfall for a major corporation, a great big fat DNC donation in return and a SLAP in the face to our national security-klinton and his team were FLAT OUT SICK PEOPLE who wouldn't know a oath of office from a bar joke; I mean....THEY PUT THE COMMERCE DEPT IN CHARGE OF THIS????? SICK!!!!)...
oops...I digress
This good man has come forward to DEMONSTRATE that there were rules of procedure SET IN PLACE BY THE KLINTONS and their DOJ thugs (gorelick...reno) that allowed a WELCOME MAT to be laid out across precious country FOR ANY CREEPY DIRTBAG with nefarious intent.
