9/11 Commissioner Jamie Gorelick on Hardball. Now, keep in mind, they were pretty clear leading up to today that the reason they wanted Condi in public was so that the American public could see what they saw -- so that it would all be out in the open, even if some of what they would be going over with her would be repetitive. Fair enough.
Well, Gorelick has just come from the Commission's session with Bill Clinton. Bad enough that's a closed session. I'm prepared to say, unhappily, that the man was a president and should be given some special consideration. But Gorelick says, I'm not going to talk about what was said because we've agreed not to.
You have truly got to be kidding me.
Unbelievable.
On a somewhat related note, when Kerrey kept badgering Rice about "why wasn't something done after the US Cole?", I kept waiting for her to say, "why don't you ask Mr. Clinton in his closed door session this afternoon?"
But of course, she was far too professional for that. Wish I could say the same about some members of the commission.
