THROWING RICE
They scrambled all they had yesterday to counter the myriad charges in Richard Clarke's new book. His comments about 9-11 are damaging to the bushers; right in the middle of the delayed and thwarted hearings. An eye opener.
This is a guy who worked for Reagan, bush one, and Clinton. Suddenly he is a bitter, wrong, wild and crazy guy who never saw anything and was out of the loop and....... They sent Condy to all the AM talk shows to make a counter and then the press guy spent the rest of the day trashing Clarke; big league spinning. This is the way of the bushers. Go for the guy; obscure the issue. I hope that this is one that doesn't go away too soon.
Yesterday KOS had a neat timeline of the 9-11 events; not based on Clarke but on a study by the Center for American Progress. You might want to take a look; worse than I would have thought.
