Able Danger Getting Messier
Posted by Moonage on 20 Oct 2005 | Tagged as: National Politics
Man, Able Danger is just NOT getting the headlines it should. This is getting good. Yesterday, Paul Weldon once again went off on people about Able Danger. As he should.
When Louis Freeh lambasted the Clinton Administration, I knew things were getting ready to get dicey. Unfortunately I don’t stay glued to tv, so I missed it. Here’s how I see things. The problem right now is the CIA/DIA was let pretty much off the hook by the 911 Commission. They put the biggest load of blame on the FBI. When Louis attacked the Clinton Administration, one line IMO set things in motion:
"I think we’re very interested in what the 9-11 Commission didn’t do with respect to Able Danger."
That line wouldn’t have been so important if it weren’t for the fact that bloggers are asking that very question all over the country. In fact, a few of them, like Michelle Malkin, are pretty popular, and haven’t dropped the ball. So, I’m sure the good people of the 911 Commission heard echoes when Freeh stated what a LARGE NUMBER of people have been stating for a long time.
Since Freeh’s tv appearance on October 9, 2005, the 911 Commission has returned to life on October 19, 2005, in the form of this statement:
The members of the Sept. 11 commission will sharply criticize the Bush administration and Congress this week in a new, privately financed report expected to single out the F.B.I. as having failed to act on many of the panel’s recommendations to protect the nation from terrorist attack, members of the bipartisan panel and its staff said.
A privately funded 911 Commission? Let’s look, shall we?
Who’s in charge of this "privately funded report"? The "911 Public Discourse Project" is:
Board of Directors
Thomas H. Kean
Lee H. Hamilton
Richard Ben-Veniste
Fred F. Fielding
Jamie S. Gorelick
Slade Gorton
Bob Kerrey
John F. Lehman
Timothy J. Roemer
James R. Thompson
Gorelick, where have I heard THAT name before? OK, let’s moveon(.org), the listed contributors are some pretty heavyweight organizations that defy any question of doubt. Except one. "The America Prepared Campaign" struck me as odd in that I’d never heard of it. It is apparently the brainchild of Steven Brill
The 911 Commission was bogus from the get-go by allowing Jamie Gorelick to be on it. Now, it’s obviously bought and paid for by the same people that have "criticized the Bush Administation" from the day he took office. The absolute parody of what the 911 Commission is would make a good movie in itself. We could call it "Fahrenheit 911 Commission: Shot Down in Flames". They are criticizing the FBI for ignoring information that could have saved us from 911 in the first place. They are criticizing Bush for ignoring information they are giving to the administration on how to prevent another attack. All of that based on ignoring information from Able Danger that not only do they refuse to listen to, but apparently are more than happy to sit by and allow the DIA and CIA to ruin the person outing Able Danger in the first place.
And, who used to be a prominent figure with the CIA and DIA both?
Jamie Gorelick, of course.
She worked closely with Sandy Bergler too.
