Freeh to attack 9/11 Commissioner Jamie Gorelink tomorrow

[underpants]

I ran across this today as DU was down (courtesy of the Freep).

Freeh is diggin for his life when he should be treading water, or at least trying to. He is going to try to do a Clarke and give the insider's view of the Clinton White House. We already have that from Clarke but this will be spun as a SLAM on Clinton tomorrow. I am sure Rove has already written the "I told YOU!!!!" sound bite.

In her first year as deputy U.S. attorney general in the Clinton administration, Sept. 11 Commissioner Jamie Gorelick was warned that lax U.S. immigration policies made the U.S. a tempting target for terrorists, former FBI Director Louis Freeh revealed on Monday, suggesting that Gorelick did little to remedy the situation.

"Protecting our homeland from attacks by foreign terrorists had long been the FBI's priority," said Freeh in a lengthy Wall Street Journal op-ed piece.


"Back in September 1994, I recommended to Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick that the DoJ strengthen investigative powers against suspected 'undesirable aliens,' accelerating deportation appeal proceedings and limiting U.S. participation in a visa waiver pilot program under which 9.5 million foreigners entered the U.S. in 1994."
