Must contain the "Stand Down" order from Bush....

NEW YORK (AFP) - The US Justice Department (news - web sites) has reportedly not released a final chapter of the September 11 commission's report related to conflicting accounts of efforts to track and chase the jets hijacked that day, and is unlikely to do so before Tuesday's presidential vote.

Meeting a pre-election deadline for release of the full report had been a top commission priority, The New York Times report stressed.


"Drawing from this unpublished part of the inquiry, the commission quietly asked the inspectors general at the Departments of Defense and Transportation to review what it had determined were broadly inaccurate accounts provided by several civil and military officials about efforts to track and chase the hijacked aircraft on September 11," the newspaper said.

1. 911 Report

I remember when they were preparing to release the first section, there was some controversary over holding back the second phase until =AFTER= the election was held.

They indicated then that the section that will be released =AFTER= the election will be the most damning part of it for the Bush Administration.

Still.. I blame the 5 Democrats on that commission as much as the 5 Republicans, because the I felt the Democrats caved in by agreeing to this!! :grr:

They said they "compromised" because it was the only way they could get the portion that's been released so far out.

A few shows (Crossfire especially) were outraged that Americans won't even know the most crucial mistakes made by the administration until after November 2nd... but like everything else- this faded from the news and everyone turned their focus onto the section that they did release.

Lieberman and the 4 other Democrats on that commission CAVED IN when they agreed to releasing it like this!! :mad:

2. When we buy a car do we get half of it on the day we pay for it

and half of it a year or so later?

This is just so much bullshit. Another lucky break for Bush and you can bet he knows everything in it and the damn stuff will probably never be released.
