CNN: Clinton Admin. told info should NOT be given to FBI!

[napi21]

Somehow I knew they would blame this all on Clinton!

On Wolff Blitzer's show, he showed a clip from Rep. Weldon (R) of PA. who said the US knew Atta and his group had info that Atta and his group were terrorists and the Clinton Admin. ordered this info not be given to the FBI!

I'm sure there's more to this story that we have yet to hear. I'm also positive, if Clinton, or anyone who worked for him, knew there was a serious risk to US Security, they wouldn't have hidden it.

1. The almighty ClenisTM strikes again!

2. Let's ask Richard Clarke - if anyone would know,

he would. Why was Weldon the only Rep told about this. It all sounds a little strange.

[The Backlash Cometh]

7. You're right. Clarke and Clinton had a "shaking the tree" system and

it all revolved around the sharing of information. I'd like to see how that Repub is going to make that stick.

8. no don't, that makes too much sense for our infotainment TV...

let's rely on the rantings of a confirmed RW neo-freak like weldon.

3. It was General Franks

and he was no Clinton supporter.

4. how the fuck would Rep. Weldon (R) of PA know this??? n/t

[kskiska]

20. Isn't Weldon the guy behind the Schiavo mess in Congress?

Didn't he push for Congress to get involved?

[Hobarticus]

5. Bullshit...they've been beating this dead horse for a long, long time...

Naturally, Wolfwhore won't ask for proof.

[Literate Tar Heel]

6. if this were really true

the right-wingers would have trotted it out a long time ago

[napi21]

10. I don't know. 911 Comm. guys are saying they were never told.

The story said there were stickers put over Atta's image as well as others. It had something to do with these people having legal green cards.

I know in my gut that Clinton wouldn't have jeprodised security, but I also know the Pubs will do anything they can, true or not, to lay the blame on him!

9. So the Bush propaganda machine resorts to last disinfo....

Its last bit of disinfo is to blame it all on Bill Clinton.

Brilliant move!! Since Clinton was also in league with them earlier. :spank:

11. Assuming that the FBI

had assessed that Atta was a threat, Freeh may have purposely done nothing with the intention of making the administration look bad.

Louis Freeh was absolute scum (and incompetant to boot - Robert Hanssen, etc). He was a political hack and his donation make it obvious (he has donated to Bush). One of Clinton's biggest mistakes was not firing that bastard.

12. Actually it is Hillary's fault!

:sarcasm:

13. It's crap. They've got indictments coming down for what amounts to

treason, and they're just dragging scraps of paper out of the shredder that might throw any little bit of a teesny weesny shadow of doubt backwards onto Clinton, to point away from their horrendous burden of crime. They're very desperate.

[Catherine Vincent]

14. As usual, Weldon talking about of his ASS.

blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton
blame Clinton blame Clinton blame Clinton

15. it's a trial balloon

They're seeing how much they can release implying LIHOP/MIHOP before people riot in the streets.

[Festivito]

16. Sounds like a CON parsing of words trick.

Would like to know the real story behind this.

Was Atta out of the country and therefore the information needed to go to the CIA?
I cannot remember. I know most of the hijackers arrived during Bush's time. Several after the election. Only two were in the US before the election. ..as I recall.

Was Clinton referring to some other item with a quick usurp of subject such as "sexual relations" ?

Clinton brought the top Intel areas TOGETHER -- every day. Bush, did not. And, under Bush investigations were thwarted. This I do recall.

17. kick

:kick:

[nomatrix]

18. This is rich!

please Wolf say it. Devil in the blue dress. Come on.....starts with a M.

Explain how Clinton kept the FBI busy in Arkansas investigating his sexual misconduct, thus preventing them from doing their job.

Even worse kept Congress busy with impeachment hearings, taking the focus off of terra.

[caffefwee]

19. Blame Bush!

21. Weldon is a lying asshole.
