FReeper - Notra Trulock to be on Hannity and Colmes tonight

Hannity and Colmes | 1.30.03 | Notra Trulock

At last, here is Trulock's account of the Wen Ho Lee case, long delayed by foot-dragging on security clearance at the FBI, CIA and Department of Energy; Trulock was the head of DOE's intelligence office during the investigation into whether Los Alamos scientist Wen Ho Lee had given nuclear warhead secrets to China.

While he denies knowledge as to whether Lee "did it," the author drops hints that Lee and his wife may have been double agents. Trulock frequently exhibits his bitterness at being scapegoated by his superiors for the failure of the government's case, but even at his most objective, he offers a harsh assessment of DOE's leaders' failure to treat the security crisis seriously, of the FBI's "disastrous" management of the Lee investigation and of Lee's continuing ability to download top-secret information for years while competing counterintelligence teams "screwed around." He provides a unique look into the American intelligence community and an unsettling perspective on the lax attitude toward national security. Wen Ho Lee's defensive memoir grabbed plenty of headlines, but Trulock's account has a disturbing ring of truth. Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Good luck to him. What I just witnessed on H&C with Colmes going after J.C. Watts was unbelieveable. He didn't want him to talk and tried to talk over him but J.C. kept right on talking. He basically accused J.C. if something went wrong in Iraq, it was his fault.

Notra, saw you on H&C. You did fine--I wish they would give you a longer segment--you have much more to tell. Thanks for not taking the easy way out. America needs to hear more about how we have been sold out.

Please follow with Sean for a return engagement.

I only saw a few brief seconds, then my neighbor knocked on the door wanting to borrow my jumper cables.

Fred, who's your neighbor--Frankenstein?

[Humidston]

Wow... I just have to get that book. I saw Lee on TV interview a long time ago and I thought he was believable. Clearly NTrulock knows much more than my impression from an interview!

Hi Fred. You busy? ...I need you to jump me.
