When Kean opened the press conference by asking me how I felt on 911, it wasn't a promising start.

I felt like crap, Tom. Thanks for asking.

He's booked his flights for his book tour, after assuring that those flights had undercover air marshalls.

In the wake of the Bergler revelations - and Jamie Gorelick's memo which essentially set the stage for 911- one has to wonder what kind of toilet paper this report will be

My guess is it will rival the Warren Report

The heroes of 911 deserved better

At least Kean admitted the committee feels we are safer today than we were on 9/11.

Kean's done. What a bore.

Now the Democratic bore gets to finish the narcoleptic knockout.

Goodnight nurse.

Look at this and you will know:

But the spokesman for the Sept. 11 commission, Al Felzenberg, told The Hill that the panel allowed W.W. Norton to print 500,000 soft-cover copies, which will sell for $10 apiece. Norton bears all of the financial risk, and neither members of the Sept. 11 panel nor the commission will receive royalties.

The panel picked Norton because it had the ability to release the book quickly and the panel liked the aesthetics and durability of the paper. The GPO will release the report and post it on the Internet.

9-11 panel to go on tour

If Kean knew he was going to directly contradict Kofi Annan's earlier quote today, he would have tempered even that lame endorsement.

Lee Hamilton damn near broke his arm slapping Kean on the back for doing such a bang up job heading up the commission.

He said Kean would be the first person he would induct into a Public Servants Hall of Fame if he started one. :-\

Hamilton calls them Islamic terrorists. I believe this is an admission that this is a religious war by the Dems.

Hamilton is telling us that the west has to address our lack of communication with Islam.

We talked to them, you effing jackass. They said, "Convert to Islam or die, pigs!"

I guess Lee's a little hard of hearing.

"WASHINGTON — The United States needs a new national intelligence director who has oversight over all of the nation's intelligence agencies, the independent commission investigating the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks recommends in its report to be released Thursday."

Isn't this notion pretty much what they're saying was the failure of the intel agencies? Too much central power, butt kissing, not sharing of info...

I agree:

Warren Report, Doux

If I remember correctly, Warren set it up so that the entire facts would only be releases 75 years(?) after the event? I believe this is correct: I was a kid, but I remember my father's rage over this ruling.

Hamilton's point about "who is responsible for terrorism response" ... isn't that old pre-Homeland Security think? Tom Ridge has the ball now, doesn't he?

Goldwater-Nickles or Frank Church reform?

It depends on who speaks first, but I guarantee Kerrey, Gorelick, and Bent Peniste will all take their shots.

No hope of any Pub mentioning any Clinton failures. That would appear partisan.

Hamilton is saying that congressional oversight committees need more power. Why, so that more national security information can be leaked to the news media?
