The 911 Commission stinks as does the panel members.

[mewzilla]

Don't ask, don't tell.

[dirtboy]

She will not testify because she was not on the original witness list drawn up by the commission

And what if Osama bin Laden himself offered to testify? Oops, he's not on the original list, sorry...

and because no other deputy-level officials have been asked to testify, a commission spokesman said.

No deputy-level officials? What about Richard Clarke?

[Semper Paratus]

I see the commissioner Kerrey is scheduled to go on the "Comedy Channel" tonight.

Maybe he should bring the rest of the commission with him.

[gundog]

"We wanted to treat everybody fairly,"

Battle-cry of liberal scum; wasn't this Hazel O'Leary's pitiful rationale for doing away with those pesky security clearance badges at sensitive DOE sites?

[Blood of Tyrants]

In the end their "findings" won't be worth the paper they are written on.

[plain talk]

Ms. Gorelick already has been interviewed for the commission in private, according to Mr. Felzenberg, and there is no need for her to do so publicly.

So had Condi and she was forced to testify publicly.

[Puppage]

The September 11 commission rebuffed a request from Republican senators that panelist Jamie S. Gorelick testify publicly about her handling of U.S. counterterrorism efforts as President Clinton's deputy attorney general.

Nice to see the Panel is all about the truth.

[Homer1]

Asking somebody to testify = "unfair"?!!!? what a joke.

[ride the whirlwind]

This panel may as well consist of Bob Woodward, Dick Clarke, Michael Moore, Al Franken, Ted Kennedy....you get the idea.

[pookie18]

"She will not testify because she was not on the original witness list drawn up by the commission"

I guess similar logic prevents them from moving Mansoor Ijaz from the original "private testimony" to the "public testimony" list...

[shield]

Do I smell a cover-up. This commission has become worthless.

[Condor51]

I can see the Title of their report now:
Lee Harvey Oswald Was The Lone Gunman
subtitle: John Wilkes Booth Killed Lincoln
(all Bush's fault)

[rudypoot]

This doesn't matter anyway, no one gives this panel any credibility now. Even if they do end up putting Gorelick under oath, the partisianship already sunk the panel.

[Master of Orion]

Time for Ashcroft to bring out some more dirty laundry!!

[Enterprise]

"We wanted to treat everybody fairly,"

Vomitous is the nicest word that comes to mind here.

[NonValueAdded]

The commission had no problem calling Condi for public testimony. The commission in its current state is useless. Since Congress authorized it, Congress can change it. Try again but don't use politicians this time.

[etcetera]

Put on your tin foil hat!

Here's my take on this:

The Commssion knew about the Gorelick memo before Ashcroft "revealed" it. To protect Clinton, Albright, and Gorelick, Senator Daschle put Gorelick on the Commission so she wouldn't have to testify.

OK to remove tin foil hat now.

She will not testify because she was not on the original witness list drawn up by the commission and because no other deputy-level officials have been asked to testify, a commission spokesman said.

BS. Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz testified before the 9/11 commission.

Everybody check Rush's website later today for his take on the real issue with the 1995 Gorelick memo. I was only half listening, but Rush mentioned something about why Gorelick really wrote her memo .. to KEEP INFORMATION ABOUT CLINTON'S CAMPAIGN FUNDS FROM THE CHINESE from becoming part of the criminal investigation.

NOW .. THIS IS A BOMBSHELL!!
