Rep. Curt Weldon

[Catherine Vincent]

He was just on H&C talking about the non-story of able danger thingee. Those jokers rather talk about anything except the crimes of the Bush administration. From day one of Sept. 11th this scrumbag has tried to blame Pres. Clinton.

1. Yup. They're trying to divert attention away from the real news

And that would be Bush is going down the drain.

2. I am so glad you brought this up, I posted a link to a posting from

last night. Please read this is very interesting, and the part I want to find about is the very last part(the excerpt I posted below) about Weldon offering to speak to any other House members on this in private about this "source with credentials" Hopefully people will give some feed back on this. Hopefully

Yesterday, Mr. Speaker, I met with another Able Danger official. I was not aware of this official's knowledge because he does not live within the Beltway.

This official, Mr. Speaker, has impeccable credentials. I cannot reveal his name today. I will to any Member of this body, any of our colleagues that want to come to me, I will tell you privately who this official is, and you will agree with me when I tell you his name that he has impeccable credentials. This official yesterday, Mr. Speaker, in a meeting in my office, told me that he has never been talked to by the Pentagon. He has never been talked to by the Defense Intelligence Agency in their supposed investigation. He has never been talked to by the 9/11 Commission staff in their investigation; yet this official had a leadership position in Able Danger .

This official told me that there is a separate cache of information collected from over 20 Federal agencies in 1999 and 2000 on Able Danger that still may exist. Now, the Pentagon has told us all this material was destroyed, and now I have a senior official telling me there is a second pot of information that may well still exist.

4. I saw that thread yesterday.

I'd like to know who this so called source is too.

5. And to think there has not been really any talk of it since yesterday

and one would think that a nugget like this would set this board off, but I guess there are so many battles going on right now that it is lost in the "background noise/fog of war"
