Clinton, Gore Set to Face 9/11 Commission

WINS News ^ | 3/2/04

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Suppose they'll be sworn in ?

[Piquaboy]

They won't be able to recall anything so this is a waste of time.

[steve50]

I don't think anybody so far has been under oath.

[jla]

Suppose they'll be sworn in ?

Why even bother? It's not like either of these two scoundrels would think twice about lying under oath.

[areafiftyone]

Is Clinton going to be biting his lip when he testifies?

[aShepard]

Sure hope that they schedule the interviews one right after the other, before they can talk to one another, so we can get the full range of independent lies.

Of course, Gore was not at any meetings, what with his need to empty his bladder of all the ice tea. And Clinton won't remember anything, as he was busy playing hide the cigar!

[GraniteStateConservative]

While Clinton and Gore have consented to public questioning without a time constraint, Bush and Cheney have agreed only to private, separate, one-hour meetings with the commission's chairman and vice chairman, instead of the full panel.

Yeah, this is smart. They figured out a way to make Clinton and Gore look honest, open and forthcoming. Geez.

I think everyone should be under oath or it's a waste of time and taxpayers money!

I'd think everybody would be under oath and before the full panel, R or D. Anything else just stinks of things to hide.

Absolutely..Maybe we should start the ball rolling on this issue??

[steve50]

I don't think it would get much support here, sadly.

I find it hard to believe that the people wouldn't want the TRUTH known. I guess that no one in this forum lost a loved one on that day?

[Recovering_Democrat]

The federal panel reviewing the Sept. 11 attacks has scheduled interviews with former President Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore...

BWA HA HA HA HA! LIKE THEY EXPECT TO GET ANY TRUTH OUT OF THESE TWO LIARS!!

[Recovering_Democrat]

Members of the bipartisan commission said they were considering a subpoena...

Under what force of law can these people issue subpoenas? I thought that was the work of a court...though I s'pose a Congressional Committee can do it, can't they?

[steve50]

I find it hard to believe that the people wouldn't want the TRUTH known.

Just the ugly side of party politics rearing it's head. Many here would support battery cables being used on the opposition and defend the right of their side to tell the panel to stuff it. Interesting times in America.

[KJacob]

Gee it is not as though Bush has an actual job that demands a lot of his time. I mean Clinton and Gore have plenty of time on their hands unless you consider "bashing America" to be a full time job.

[Bella]

Interesting times in America.

Yes indeed..makes you wonder. Sad.

[mass55th]

Gore will give the old ice tea excuse for not being at the meetings when those things were discussed.

[GraniteStateConservative]

He signed the legislation that created the commission. He knew at that time that he'd need to co-operate with the commission and that it was likely that he'd be asked to be interviewed and that people on his national security staff would be asked. He spends time for political events and events honoring various people and groups. He finds time for that. And Cheney's schedule would be even more free. The issue is that they are going to have to defend this decision and it is not easy to defend to the public.
