Once the 9-11 Commission finishes their work, guess where their report goes? To the White House, where it will be vetted before it is released! That means the White House goes through the report and removes everything that could jeopardize national security (HONK!). So it will be just like the report that Congress put together, where the Bush Administration removed all references to Saudi Arabia's support of terrorism.
Should be a heck of a report. 250 pages of black marker and yellow highlight on the pages where they talk about Clinton dropping the ball.
An aside to everyone who was so gung-ho about the war in Iraq: if we withdraw in less than 100 days, what do you think Iraq is going to look like? Don't say you don't care, because if left to its own devices, Iraq will wind up in the hands of people 100 times more radical than Saddam Hussein. I'm sure they'll look very kindly at the U.S.
Remember when everyone scoffed at those who said invading Iraq would cause more terrorism. What's your opinion now?
