After six months of culling through intelligence files and nearly a dozen closed-door hearings, the House-Senate intelligence committee investigating the Sept. 11 attacks has uncovered no single piece of information that, if properly analyzed, could have prevented the disaster, according to members of the panel.

"As far as I know, there is no smoking gun," Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.), a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, said yesterday.]

Tell me something I don't already know, or better yet, educate yourself because your 'facts' are wrong.

In Bush's press conference Monday - in response to a reporter's question he told the reporter to read the minutes of Harken's board meeting concerning the Harken sweetheart loan to him.

Only problem is - those minutes have not been released.

Just as all relevant SEC documents regarding their investigation into insider trading allegations against Bush, and his violation of securities law by failing to file required notices on time, have not been released for the public to view either.

If he could gain political mileage by releasing those documents - you bet he would be calling for the release right now.

Since he ISN'T calling for full disclosure, the assumption must be that he fears he would be damaged by full release.
