i'm outraged as hell!
clearly a group inside the pentagon has been conducting experiments to determine the effects of psychotropic drugs. only this time they were their own guinea pigs.
Maj. Paul Swiergosz, a Defense Department spokesman, said Pentagon investigators reviewed 9.5 million documents, e-mails and other military records, and interviewed more than 80 individuals, including Shaffer and Able Danger's team leader, Navy Capt. Scott Philpott.
Swiergosz said four team members told investigators that they recalled a chart with a pre-Sept. 11 photo of Atta, while the fifth member recalled only a reference to Atta's name.
Swiergosz and other Pentagon officials said they believed that all five of the team members were credible, but that investigators could not find a single piece of evidence proving that such a chart existed.
"The facts are very simple," Swiergosz said. "They specifically searched for the name Mohamed Atta and it never came up. We couldn't even find data that someone could use to create such a chart."
"able danger" musta took its name from the fact that when these guys were able to find their way to the parking lot, everyone on the road with them was in danger.
what really pisses me off is a. i never got paid to take drugs at work. and b. they were sharing their dope with someone who didn't need it (rep curt weldon, r-pa)
Weldon was the first to publicly mention Able Danger, saying in a brief passage in his recent book, "Countdown to Terror," that the chart was produced before the attacks and that the Pentagon failed to act on it. Weldon also said he gave the chart to Stephen J. Hadley, an advisor to President Bush, just after the attacks. Hadley was deputy White House national security advisor at the time and has since been promoted to national security advisor. The White House has refused to comment on whether Hadley received such a chart.
the good news is senate judiciary comittee plans to take names and kick asses on september 14,2005. i hope they've already subpeonaed hadley and weldon. one of em will have to change his story of perjure himself. either way, bush can announce his support for yet one more liar.
