Live 9/11 Commission Thread [testifying today Freeh, Reno, Ashcroft]
Post 1,976 is a good summary of the gist. For my own comments on Pincus, see Posts 2,041 and following. Among other things I learned that Pincus was in Army counterintelligence in the 1950s; joined the CIA in the late 50s and had his cover blown c. 1967; since the Watergate era has been linked to people like Daniel Ellsberg and Bob Woodward and Anthony Lake and organizations like the Institute for Policy Studies; and played a key role in the media coverage of Vince Foster's death. I've been meaning to start another thread summing up the info on him; will try to do that over the weekend.
For Wilson, the dream assignment would be France. He grew up in Paris, his wife, Jacqueline, is French, and he owns a vacation home near the Riviera town of Hyeres.
He grew up in Paris...sounds like fodder for the grist...Paris, Paris, I've heard of that place before...yeah, Kerry applied for a draft deferment to study in Paris!
Well, I hear it's a great town.
