Those sensitive documents

The Global Free Press thinks Bustlebutt ought to turn over his daily briefings to the 9/11 Commission.

If Mr. Bush did not mean to share the country's most sensitive secrets with the commissioners, he should not have signed the bill [creating the commission] in the first place.

Since he did so, it makes no sense for him now to refuse it access to material its members regard as critical. It isn't reasonable to expect commissioners to put their names on a report they know to be based on incomplete information, only to look like fools when that information comes out and contradicts their conclusions.


Earth calling Global Free Press - check your foggles - Boy Blunder hasn't made much sense up to this point in his life. Why question that now?

So the commissioners are different then than Congresspeople, who have no problem signing things they never even read? Well, that's encouraging, if true.

However, history has shown us, as in the case of the Warren Commission, that neither having complete information or being reasonable is a prerequisite for sitting on an investigative commission and signing off on a report.

Maybe to avoid embarrassment, the commissioners should start scouring the interent if they aren't already. It seems that independent sources and bloggers knew about falsified and spurious intelligence prior to the invasion of Iraq. Maybe they also have more complete information about 9/11.

....but do what you want, commissioners....you will anyway.
