On another front, the former commission members found insufficient progress on thwarting attempts by the al-Qaida network to acquire or make weapons of mass destruction.

Like airplanes? So far, so good...

A man flips through copies of the 9/11 Commission Report at a news conference in Washington, November 14, 2005. The U.S. government is still failing to adequately protect nuclear weapons from terrorists and its handling of terrorism suspects is undermining attempts to improve America's image in the Muslim world, members of a commission that investigated the September 11 attacks said on Monday.

this commision has as much credibility with me as the ny slimes.
JMHO

[MNJohnnie]

You mean they still cover the 9-11 Circus Clowns. The same Committee that categorically refused to dismiss a Commissioner Jamie Gorlic who had a CLEAR conflict of interest?? What next, just turn editorial decisions over to Hillary Clinton? What a bunch of losers.

The commission that protected Gorelicks backside and has taken no interest in the revelations of Able Danger.
How much of Able Dangers work was thwarted because of her wall?
I have no use for any of their posturing.

[Dog Gone]

I didn't realize the commission was still in existence.

[Arm_Bears]

But, but, I thought there weren't any WMD's out there to be had.

Why haven't the Ommission Commission comissars been jailed* yet?

*After a fair trial of course

[yoe]

I give the 9/11 commission a 0-0 review. They were negligent in doing a totally non-partisan report and kept Jamie Gorelick on the panel when it was obvious the woman was much to blame for the 9/11 day of horror. They deemed Able Danger not worthy of investigating; IMHO, they knew it might lead to more Clinton failures being recognized. Al Qaida could have been stopped years before - this isn't the Bush administrations fault, they have been cleaning up the Clinton administration mess left to them.

Stopping Al Qaida will take the MSM and useful idiots who champion the terrorists to stop playing politics and start winning this WOT. Until then the 9/11 commission can stuff it.

President Bush is doing a marvelous job in spite of the thankless “damned if you do or damned if you don’t” unpatriotic, anti-Americans and the MSM using Iraq and the WOT as a political football each and every day!

[woofie]

How are the Dems doing on all this?

[Enchante]

A world in which charlatans such as Richard Ben Veniste, Jamie Gorelicker, Slade Gorton (and fellow RINOs), et al are now the great experts on counter-terrorism and international affairs is a world so laughable and Orwellian as to enter the realm of farce. How did these clowns ever get appointed to the 9/11 Commission and why do they now think they can preach to us when they made a total botch of their job? The idea that the MAIN ISSUE post-9/11 is the gentle treatment of Al Qaeda and other terrorist prisoners shows that these clowns are merely spouting 'Rat talking points and do not know squat about securing the USA and the world from terrorists.

This commission has no credibility with me. It was meant to cover up for certain democrats, and indict the administration. Crapola.

"Like airplanes? So far, so good..."

You could have said the same thing on September 11th, 2001 up until about 8:45am. My experience with airport security - rather, the lack thereof - since September 11th has left me with the notion that the only thing standing between us and more plane hijackings are unarmed passengers with a will to live. The TSA needs to quit acting like a typical government do-nothing agency and put some decent security in place. For starters, try hiring competent people; not 80 year old women who couldn't read the name on my ticket and didn't bother even glancing at my ID but let me go anyway despite the fact that my ticket had gotten mixed up with a friend's.

""Preventing terrorists from gaining access to weapons of mass destruction must be elevated above all other problems of national security," the former commission members said. "It represents the greatest threat to the American people" and President Bush should publicly make this goal his top priority, the review said."

Did I read this right?

Gorelick and Ben-Viniste want us to "prevent terrorists from gaining access to WMD's", and that this "should be Bush's top priority?

Why in the hell do they think we are in Iraq?

Morons.
