Rumsfeld says that 9/11 Commission briefed about Able Danger

Rumsfeld is having a press conference. Under the Fox News Alert the big banner read:

Rumsfeld says that Able Danger briefed the 9/11 Commission.

Did anyone hear his remarks on this matter; all I've seen is the banner.

Did you hear the press conference? If yes, please fill us in.

We both agreed on another thread that if Rumsfeld is willing to go on the record with this, he believes Shaffer and is willing to tie his fortune to Shaffer.

I turned the television on about 1:30 est. The banner under The Fox News Alert was up for a long time so I'm assuming Rumsfeld was asked about Able Danger at the press conference.

Didn't Kean, et al already say they met with or were briefed on Able Danger, after they said they didn't?

LOL. While, friggin' bombshells are good signs, they're great signs too. I shouldn't always be so coy or understated. ;^)

Ok, but has he said WHAT Able Danger briefed the 9/11 commission on? Did they share the information about Atta? The commission has said that their staff spoke with Able Danger, but were never told about the Atta information.

Have to go exercise; will check in later. Wish I'd heard the question during the press conference but I was convinced by another freeper to put up a thread about this matter.

Hopefully someone can fill in the blanks.

And I think we're approaching double digits of excuses by the 9/11 Commission :-)

I heard him say that the commission WAS briefed on AD - you know, the very thing that they first claimed they weren't and now are claiming doesn't matter?
