I just hope a significant segment of the DOD is behing this guy as he has intimated. Only the military, as seemingly the only part of the Fed that works, can get this slanderous failure into the light of day. All DC will pull out every stop to bury it.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

If I had to guess at the identity of the general, I'd lean toward Merrill McPeak.

Actually she was put on the 9/11 commission so she would not have to testify. Ben Viniste or whatever the punk lawyer is called was put in to keep tabs on what was being given to the commission and helping in defeating anything that may harm the Clinton Administration while giving the democrats a heads up as to what could hurt Bush

Remember Gorelick was the DoD's General Counsel before she went to DOJ and completed the wall building.

Shaffer is going to be DEVASTATING for the 9/11 Commission, and the Democrats, he is all over their SPIN LIKE A CHEAP SUIT!

He talked about his notes from the briefing of the 9/11 Commission.

He's got a SHOPPING LIST of stuff they LEFT OUT!

The 'fix' was in from the very beginning of the 9/11 commision. If I remember correctly, many of the commission members stated their mission as trying to determine what went wrong prior to 9/11 and then make recommendations to alleviate those problems. Their mission according to them was not to lay blame on any group or administration. When you start out with the understanding that the mission was not to find blame or to assign blame, then a whole lot of things are going to be covered up or disregarded or thrown away.

I'm with you. I have been shouting since January 2000 that Bush needs to COMPLETELY disinfect the State Department and the Pentagon. I think Rummy has largely taken care of Clinton's panty-waist Pentagon, but State continues to puss up with communists and Clintonoids like a big ugly zit. For some reason, Bush doesn't have the cajones to clean the place out.

Here's a link to a story I posted earlier about the Bush administration being briefed on Able Danger two weeks AFTER 9/11.

What I really want to know is, who is this two star general at the Pentagon.

Bush testified before the Commission with Cheney present, right? Apparently, he did not feel it necessary to reveal what he knew? Or did he?

It's incredible. Clinton and his crew say the most horrible things about Bush Jr. and Bush Sr. becomes Bill's new daddy. I'd want to take a baseball bat to the guy. This is even more disgusting when you consider that W and more than likely Bush Sr. knew about ABLEDANGER weeks after 9/11, but have no problem saddling up with the SOB.

Speaking of the "new tone", I'm beginning to think (after all this time) that it's Bush practice to let the American people bring these issues to the forefront than for his administration to point fingers and lay blame. It's harder to cry "politics" when it's the voters demanding answers.
