If Bent Penista is quoting the Washingon Composte as his only alibi for his witch hunt--then he is almost out of steam.

Did you catch Ben-Venista's spin on the lack of sharing of information between the FBI and the CIA? He said the only that could have forced them to share information was leadership. This after 25 years of Dem efforts to hamstring our intelligence operations. I almost threw my coffee mug through the TV at that one - including Clinton-era directives that raised additional barriers between the FBI and the CIA and that only allowed us to recruit Eagle Scouts for foreign intel sources.

And then he did a classic Clintonista half-truth - when asked if he was a partisan, he said that he had no political aspirations, no desire to hold office. Which in no way answers the actual question.

I'm at the point now where I think we should call for the 9-11 Commission to be disbanded - because it is now becoming harmful.

Coalition press conference: American reporter asks about reports Sadr has fled to Iran. Kimmitt has no information on that.

The Dems/Libs will see that is is disbanded the moment they have milked it dry (for their benefit). If it looks like 'the commission findings' would be pro-Bush, they would break up ASAP. If they can fault Bush, they will go full court press to get the results printed.

From the tone of the overall Commission, plus the complicit media spin, I see a document heavily faulting GWB and others (with a slight slap on the wrist to Clinton) with the FBI and CIA getting the brunt (even though their hands were tied by law and by Clinton Admin directives).

Ben-Venista's spin...the only thing that could have forced the FBI and the CIA...to share information was leadership."

An unrealized compliment to W, because that's exactly what happened. W's leadership got it done.
