Theory on why the White House is in full blown hysterics.
Advertisements [?]
From Bill Moyers NOW...

Now, keep in mind, these date back to the spring of 2001, some six months before 9/11, two years before the war with Iraq. Among them are a map of Iraq's oil fields and pipelines, and lists of foreign companies — the documents call them "suitors" — interested in developing Iraq's oil industry. These documents raise more questions than they answer, they don't tell us, for example, why the Vice President and private energy executives would be so curious at that time about those Iraqi oil fields, and why they would fight so hard in the meantime to keep their curiosity secret.

Remember, Karl Rove participated in the meetings as well, while he held Enron stock.

The Supremes are about to hand down a decision on those records. If the vote goes against the W.H. even with Scalia on board, and you combine that with a credible Dick Clarke, you have dynamite. Can you picture what the democrats could do with ads showing Dick Clarke demanding principals meetings, then contrasted with documents showing that the Iraqi oil fields have been divided up by Enron and the like? They need to make Dick Clarke evil before that potentially happens. They are hysterical. They aren't overreacting. They are putting on a brave face while knowing that a non compliant Justice Kennedy or Sandra Day O'Connor can literally destroy them.

Combine a credible critic who claims that Osama was ignored, who also states that the W.H. was obsessed on Saddam, add in Enron, Karl Rove, Iraqi oilfield maps, and what do you think the result will be? Can you picture a campaign ad of Clarke's memo from January 24th asking for a principals meeting on Iraq, combined with a picture of the oil charts would do? It would literally be the Goldwater Daisy ad of today. Lethal.
