Very interesting.
I didn't hear the whole thing yet. But there is a woman there that isn't missing a beat yet. She is paraphrasing everything with emphasis.
I think it is Mckinney. I have to finish the tape later.
I back every effort to make him President!
If she's speaking English, and makes sense, it could'nt possibly be McKinney!!LOL!!
This questions was raised somehwere else, and I think its a good one: If Able Danger was so damning for the Clinton Administration, where were all the Congressmen during the hearing? Wouldn't you expect Republicans to be slobbering over the testimony?
Here's one possible theory: I suspect that Republicans have some culpability in the demise of LIWA and Able Danger. Porter Goss -- now Director of CIA -- was Chair of the House Intelligence committee at the time and to scrap LIWA probably required his tacit sign off. He may have done so based on input he received from the CIA (a turf battle issue) or because he did not like the idea of agencies "freelancing" on intelligence matters to other members of Congress who were not on his committee.
I've seen posts from you too at times that gives me the impression that you couldn't speak English either. So I'll wait til I finish the tapes myself, thanks.
Bookmark.
It's a sick country...... they're all in on it....... no big deal.
Hey BTS, what's new in Penn? How 'bout them Stillers...I knew they were good when they went into SD and beat my Chargers on Monday night.
Definite culpability. Weldon mentioned the #2 in one of the intel agencies; I've forgotten who it was, as being opposed to this program and trying to get it shut down.
Anyhow, if you'd like, check out this whimsical vanity thread I began last week. I think it was pretty funny.

It's simple why AbleDanger has been shoved under the rug. It would completely blow away the current NSA issue: the Pentagon fears getting sucked into the vortex of criticism for warrantless eavesdropping. Also, AbleDanger would completely undermine support for the current NSA program -- if it is allowed to become a major issue. --IMHO.
Again...
>This helps to explain something that has bothered me- why so many people go to extremes to protect the Clintons.
But, it looks like there are many other interests being protected too. <
There is an old saying that rings true here..."You are either part of the solution or you are part of the problem".
Your rice bowl and bicycle would be your most prized possessions.

good to see you again bump
Yeah, that's actually a theory written about the general lack of aggression in the GOP, with Able Danger as an example of the DC elite's interdependence. What explains Able Danger, in my mind, is the illegal campaign money from China, 911 being a direct, if unanticipated, result.
These charts prove that out.
Also, thanks for the Weldon reelection info, especially the stuff about that Clinton meat puppet that's running against him.
