Subject: RE: BS: Condi Rice on National Security?
a quote from clarke's appearece today on meet the press about declassifying all of his testimony and the memos that he sent dr. rice...

"Now, Dr. Rice has characterized this as not a plan, not a strategy, not a series of decisions which could be made right away, but warmed-over Clinton material.  Let's declassify that memo I sent on January 25th and let's declassify the national security directive that Dr. Rice's committee approved nine months later on September 4th, and let's see if there's any difference between those two, because there isn't.  And what we'll see when we declassify what they were given on January 25th and what they finally agreed to on September 4th, is that they're basically the same thing and they wasted months when we could have had some action."

no wonder the woman doesn't want to face a lawyer like ben-veniste UNDER OATH. the full transcript of clarke's interview is at MSNBC. if you can read that and still say that he's not telling the truth then you'll have to back it up with more than character assassination about his possible "motives".
