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.

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.

Yeh ...... let's ask why the Justice Pepartment doesn't want any part of Jayna Davis' material on OKC.

It's a sick country...... they're all in on it....... no big deal.

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.

It was a great season. However, it was a bit of a bummer to hear all the less-than-well-informed dweebs whining about the officials in the Super Bowl.

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.

We the sheeple will be stuck paying the bill, likely with our own blood.

>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".

The USA is in danger. We citizens no longer have the ability to "clean house" in regards to our public officials. The same old retreads get offered up every year. Where can men and women of integrity be found when public service has been boiled down to "Screw the better good! How much money and power can I get? And I better CMA by CYA, wink wink nudge, nudge." From both political parties, I must add.

I would say our only hope is in the power of the Internet and the Pajamadeen. Unfortunately, it would take a major media player who wants to make a name for him/herself to start the revolution.

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.
