If there were ever a "blue ribbon" commission that needed to call Emergency Services, it's those folks being blindsided by the 1600 Crew 24/7. In 1600 Crew speak they're just doing a fine job ... in other words, staying away from the truth; as far away as we can keep them.
Long-simmering tensions with the commission investigating the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks became a more immediate problem for the White House this week as the panel released a series of damaging revelations about missed opportunities to stop the al Qaeda hijackers and opposed the administration by asking for more time to complete its work, according to panel members and political experts.
The developments represent a political problem for the Bush administration, which objects to granting the commission a later deadline and has long sought to play down criticism of the government's performance before the terrorist strikes. The administration has also not agreed to the panel's requests for direct testimony from President Bush and Vice President Cheney.
Bush spokesman Scott McClellan said yesterday that "this White House is committed to making sure the commission has all the information that they need to do their job," but that "it's important that they move forward as quickly as they can to complete their work."
It's a well documented fact that when Fearless Leader or one of his minions is excessively complimentary of some program or group, they will be pulling the rug out from under them ASAP.
If even the most hardened of the Miserable Failure supporters can't see that he's blocking the 9-11 commission from doing it's job, then they need to re-think their blind and undying support for the the Chimp in November. The 9-11 Commission is simply trying to get to the truth and let the chips fall where they may. The 1600 Crew knows that the chips will be falling ... well in places they'd rather not have made public, ever. Lying, double-dealing and decitful. Tune in tomorrow and I'll tell you how I really feel.
