Gorelick Caught In Lie - Gorelick Says She Did Not Author or Sign the "WALL" Memo

Gorelick Caught In Lie - Gorelick Claims She Did Not Author or Sign the Memo That Bears Her Name and Initials.
When asked specifically by CNN's Wolf Blitzer if she wrote the "memorandum in '95 that helped establish the so-called walls between the FBI and CIA," Gorelick distanced herself from the matter:
"No, and again, I would refer you back to what others on the commission have said. The wall was a creature of statute. It's existed since the mid 1980s. And while it's too lengthy to go into, basically the policy that was put out in the mid-nineties, which I didn't sign, wasn't my policy by the way, it was the attorney general's policy, was ratified by Attorney General Ashcroft's deputy as well in August of 2001. So we are just going to move on from this. This is not a basis for resignation."

When a Democrat lies it should surprise no one. It is when they tell the truth that shocks hell out of me!

BREAKING: Gorelick (put on the Committee by Daschle)
not only created the background for the 911 Atrocities but now is covering it up
for the terrorists. Gorelick is a litigation partner of Wilmer, Cutler & Pickering.
which represents Prince Mohammed al-Faisal al-Saud, the House of Saud,
against a lawsuit filed by a coalition of 600 Sept. 11 families.


CONCLUSION:

"I didn't author it."

She will resign and the calls for her to be a witness will prevail.

No telling what a search of her "law" firm might find. Vince Fosters keys? Gary Condit's address book? Bin Laden's cell phone number?

She didn't sign it; she initialed it. Typical Clintonista. How I despise those people.

The way I understand it, the Gorelick memo goes beyond what the law required, so she can't take the excuse that the law had been in effect for years before the existence of the memo.

Per this Reno speech, the Gorelick memo wasn't a wall, but Reno is parsing. It seems all the Clinton people are adept at trying to parse words.

Gorelick: I did not sign that memo [I initialled it].

Reno: "I know of nothing that would have prohibited, based on what I've seen, proper follow-up"

Hey, Janet, what does 'proper follow-up' mean? We're not talking about following up, we're talking about a directive that prohibits information sharing, Janet.

Reno: Nothing kept FBI from sharing info

Bakersfield Californian ^ | 4/14/04 | Murray Evans - AP
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Contradicting her successor, former Attorney General Janet Reno said Wednesday that nothing prevented the sharing of FBI intelligence with criminal investigators working on counterterrorism. Reno, speaking Wednesday at the University of Kentucky, took issue with Attorney General John Ashcroft's statement Tuesday that a legal restriction referred to as "the wall" prevented the FBI from sharing information with investigators. "I know of nothing that would have prohibited, based on what I've seen, proper follow-up" in cases Ashcroft referred to, Reno said.

I noticed that the liberal print media has been trying to avoid the Gorelick memo since Ashcroft outed her.

Yes! Yes! Her initials are on the memo!! I love it when liberals get caught in a firestorm of their own making.

She's parsing words. She said she didn't sign it. Thats technically true, her signature is not on the memo. She initialed it.

Your initials next to your name on a paper is the same as your signature. It takes the place of the open space that was not left for the signature above the name. This is a real signature.

The apparent problem with this commission is the same with Congress and our political system. They all have an agenda,seek recognition and pass the buck.
We do not have enough people with common sense and the best interest for the average person in America involved.
Most of these people do not realize what the average citizen is up against and could care less. They live in their own world and look out for self and special interest first.
This commission could quite well agree on and seek another government bureaucracy and all this does is create more problems and add another piece to the puzzle to pass the blame. All of our governments from the smallest hamlets to the Federal level are too big and cannot be held accountable because it is to large of a labyrinth.
