1. Good for him. He was the first to sound the alarm, and boy was
he trashed for it.

5. Not only that, but he was the first and I believe only governmental
official to publicly apologize for the failings on 9/11.

"Your government has failed you, and I have failed you. We tried hard, but that doesn't matter because we failed you. And for that failure, I would ask, once all the facts are out, for your understanding and for your forgiveness." Richard Clarke

9. That anyone didn't read it is astonishing
okay no it is but that book debunks the whole Bush administration talking points campaign. Tears it apart.

8. I bought and read it the day it came out
It is very well written and is one that I recommend to everyone. My (hopefully) someday daughter-in-law has it now and has my permission to pass it on to any one she knows who will read it after she's done.

trying to get to the truth, or rather trying to get the truth to the people. Very glad to hear about this - I got it from the library a yr ago and never finished it. I think now's a good time to get a copy in PB. Gonna add it to my long, long reading list.
