3. And she actually stated that shaking trees wouldn't have made a |
|
difference. For a National Security Advisor, that's a gruesome statement to make. I would say, she's outta there.

4. Gorelick just got a round of applause |
|
Gorlick is right the airlines were not given any advance warning and if they did it was a very typical "reminder" to stay alert but definetly not a warning because the flight crews would have recieved a "specific warning" like we did during the millineum threat. There was nothing in our e-mail that summer that idicated that they were worried about a thing.

6. Here comes the Hart/Rudman briefing |
|
Gorlick is quoting from the Hart/Rudman report. She is hammering Rice. Now she is trying to blame the Clinton administration by refering to earlier cases and claiming to only in office for "only" 233 days. Now she is talking about Cheney being in charge of terrorist attack. Now Rice is asking why they didn't do something before refering to the prior administration. She is lying through her teeth. She is bringing up Andrew Card, because she knows that they can not call Card.

7. She did say that it was the vice president that asked the president |
|
regarding putting together the Homeland Security AGency. Though, I think that's information right out of the Hart-Rudman proposal? Does anybody know that for sure?

5. We were complaining of the lob balls by the repub |
|
but I think the most damming statements she has made so far are her answer to him. Lucky break, not efficient to have battle-station meetings, shaking the trees would not have helped!!!!!!!
Don't let her get away with this, pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

10. OMIGOD, she's getting worse! |
|
Slade Gorton is spoon feeding her answers and now she's trying to claim that 9/11 couldn't have been prevented EVEN if the recommendations had been implimented after January 21.
No way, will I believe that!

11. Now I really want to know exactly how Clinton and his stuff prevented |
|
1999 attack. It will be an interesting comparizon. I wish Time or Newsweek would do the side by side comparizon of these two events, one of them was actually prevented.
Better yet, Kelly people should do this for them. I am more and more impressed by Clinton. Sometiems I thought he was too influenced by poll. Well, he prevented the attack all behind the scene.

12. It's already been reported. |
|
They held daily meetings and anytime they had chatter, like the chatter that Condi got in August, they shook trees and made the intelligence agencies shake their trees and once the information was out, they went to battle stations.
This is what would have happened under Clinton: the August 2001 report regarding hijackings would have caused Sandy Berger to shake everyone, including the FBI, and the FBI would have revealed information regarding Moussaui.
