"The jig is up"
Edited on Tue Aug-17-04 03:51 PM by Skidmore
Kristen Breitwieser told Congress. People are angry and can't get past page 50 of the 911 committee report.

Is anyone watching this testimony today besides me or we all obsessing about Kerry's haircut?

1. Is there something specific on page 50?
or is that a symbolic comment

7. She was basically saying that by the
time people have gotten to page 50 they are so angry with the government and its agencies for their ineptitude and legargy and infighting over turf that they are ready to spit. She told these members of congress that they need to be Americans first no matter how much it hurt them in terms of prestige or power.

11. She needs to rage about the fact that they still won't deal with Sibel Edm
Edmond's allegations and the witnesses she says she has.

3. Heard her on AAR
'Al Queida has time to work on more than one project at a time ... the DOD needs to wake up and start paying attention' (paraphrase)

SHE ROCKS !!!

4. This is probably a dumb question, but

5. Kristen should run for office
Of course, that might remove her ability to
speak the truth....

She and the others testifying today are
real heroes. We owe them a great debt
for getting a bi-partisan 9/11 committee and
fighting for real change in the status quo.

6. People, page 50 was a symbolic comment...
Although it was funny to see everyone screaming, what's on 50!

10. You know, there are three voices in front of this group representing
us, not special interests. Perhaps we can lend a little support and a little less glibness.

12. I watched the whole thing this morning...except
I always mute the TV when the repubs start their diatribes about how wonderful the shrub is. All 3 of the people speaking before the committee are extremely knowledgeable and eloquent. The Senators got an earful......rightfully so.
