Wes Clark: White House Stonewalling 9/11 Commission
Wes Clark: White House Stonewalling 9/11 Commission
http://www.clark04.com/story/02/
General Wesley Clark called on the Bush Administration to stop
stonewalling the September 11 Commission.

"George W. Bush and his administration have stonewalled the 9/11
Commission long enough," Clark said. "Leadership means being straight
with the American people. For the sake of our nation's future security,
President Bush needs to give Governor Kean and the other Commission
members the information they want, need and have demanded about the
August 2001 briefings."more

1. An interesting gambit would be
For all Dem candidates to declare, "If Bush/Cheney doesn't come clean with the 9/11 files, I will have it THOROUGHLY investigated when I become President"

3. Even better, would be for the Dems to bring Congress to a ....
Edited on Wed Oct-29-03 04:29 PM by Flying_Pig
complete halt, until the demand for Bush to release all requested information is met. Further, the Dems should convene a minority panel to investigate the WH's failure to cooperate, and possible obstruction of justice charges.

But yeah, Clark should let them know there will be hell to pay when/if he becomes president. I hope whoever is elected, will not allow ANY of the crimes of the Bush regime to be pardoned or swept under the rug. The only hope for our democracy, is to root out these fascists once and for all, and put them in prison where they belong.

4. Excellent thought, RobertSeattle,
I hope they all pound this issue during the next debate. They ALL need to drive this issue home and keep hammering bush* and not each other.

5. The 9-11 anger is finally picking up steam
glad to see Clark sticking it to Bush - hope Dems other than those running for Pres do the same.

7. What's really needed, is for the thousands of survivors and families
Edited on Wed Oct-29-03 04:28 PM by Flying_Pig
of those killed, to all march on the White House. I can see Bush redacting everything he will give, if anything, that it won't be worth much. He'll just play the stalling game, and then if it gets too hot, he'll claim executive priv.

By having the families on the steps of the WH demanding those papers, there will be no way he can slither out of it without looking guilty as hell, and killing his chances at "re-election". This is exactly what we need to happen, not only for the cause of justice concerning 9/11, but also to insure the Bush regime is finally taken down. The American people need to be convinced, that the only way to get the truth about 9/11, will be to remove Bush, and put a Dem in who will put it all on the table.

12. Way to go, Wes....
Keep those seeds of doubt sprouting in the minds of the populace. Never let them rest.

An assault a day keeps the Bush away....and keeps them defending here there and everywhere. Use their own tactics...don't let the barrage stop. Keep those guns firing....you know how to do it!

And all for right! Let them whine.
