First-Several news sources have pulled up recorded statements by Condoleza (sp?) Rice 11 months prior to 9-11.
Her statement included that the biggest threat she saw was the
(existing-my word) lack of communication between the FBI and the CIA. She said this was a priority because they didn't want to wake up one morning and find Al Qaeda in our own neighborhood.
I guess that's lie number one since Clarke said, "From the look on her face"-loosely- it appeared she had never HEARD of Al Qaeda...
Jim Angle, Fox reporter< pulled out of his files a recording of Clarke giving GLOWING accolades to Bush on his terror stance and plan. So, THAT again makes Clarke a liar or... a butt kisser. He didn't get the job-CR did so he tries to make her look stupid when she may be the most brilliant person in the White House!
Second, shall we remember that due to the Florida fiasco, Bush wasn't even allowed to set up his cabinet or use the time to make the transfer of power smooth? Add to that the lengthy time it takes to investigate and orientate new positions.
Now to reporting-I don't know 1/100000000% of what you know about the framework. I do know that false reports about cars and products have been presented to the public in a "news format". I know there's a bit of controversy from serious journalists-and competitors-about NBC using their "news" show for The Apprentice-Their justification is it's "Pop Culture" news. I know election results have had to be restated-I know that slant does exist and it's more powerful than words and rules on a piece of paper. It's very similar to the letter of the law Vs the heart of the law. I probably looked at all news, cable and network, under the same rules, so I learned something today.(Should go post it in Tom's thread)
