We watched her entire testimony from 6 AM PDT...She did an excellent job, and certainly did note there was a systemic flaw between the FBI and CIA as far as info sharing. We here know it was the law, but many others who don't pay attention as much to the Federal laws, but rather are into the blame game, might not have known that. Now there is no excuse for them not to know. She certainly spelled it out.
Ben Veniste came off as a jerk, IMO, and Bob Kerrey proceeded to use some of his 10 minutes to vent about the Iraq War, and then *itched because he didn't have enough time for his questions.
The one thing I didn't understand is why the continued questions about why the bombers of the USS Cole weren't "taken care of" by the Bush Adm....when in fact, the event happened on the Clinton watch Oct 12, 2000. (I remember that Albright said they weren't sure FOR SURE who was responsible).....

Remember, after the election the "chad and voting problems", the missing military ballots, and the lawyers going back and forth to the various courts, including the Supreme Court....then the new Pres and VP are inaugurated about Jan 20th... it took several months for Bush's new appointees to be approved by Congress.....and in the meantime, he was supposed to send a cruise missile to someone because of the USS Cole? After all, that's what the country had gotten used to under Clinton. Why didn't Clinton do it?
Thanks for posting the transcript, BTW. |
