So it would seem the 9/11 commission is reconvening to address the failure, indirectly, of one of its own members, former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick. It appears her 1995 memo keeps coming back to haunt her. And as much as the MSM would like to take a pass on this one, or I'm sure find some way to blame John Ashcroft, George W, or perhaps the one and only evil mastermind Dick Cheney/Karl Rove/Donald Rumsfeld/Insert Bush figure we want to pick on this week, they're stuck with the reality that Able Danger has brought that memo back to hang like an albatross around Gorelick's neck.

I think this one's pretty simple. Deputy Attorney General ok's in a written memo and controls the attorneys who enforce the wall that keeps milintel from talking with law enforcement. Atta and some of his cohorts slip through our fingers and kill over 3000 Americans. There's only two legitimate reasons she could have done it. One would be that she was careless and sloppy in her enforcement of the law, and therefore made a pathetic DAG, or two, that she was merely following the corrupt orders of a decrepit Attorney General and chose not to resign over it, which makes her complicit. So which one will it be Ms. Gorelick?

As a side note, during Ashcroft's tenure as AG, many of my more liberal friends liked to talk about how Nazi-like he was and how authoritarian his actions were blah blah. These same people didn't see any of this, though, when AG Reno was ordering the immolation of adults and little children at Waco, ordering the murder of civilians at Ruby Ridge, or illegally seizing Elian Gonzalez from his family. Who was the 'Nazi' again? Of course, the famed response you would typically get was "Well, Ashcroft hasn't killed anyone that we know of." Ok kids, when you find Ashcroft's alleged death camps and Brown Shirt Commemorative Gift Baskets, let me know. Til then, don't p!ss down my back and tell me it's raining.
