WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush personally asked Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle Tuesday to limit the congressional investigation into the events of September 11, congressional and White House sources told CNN.

The request was made at a private meeting with congressional leaders Tuesday morning. Sources said Bush initiated the conversation.

He asked that only the House and Senate

intelligence committees look into the potential breakdowns among federal agencies that could have allowed the terrorist attacks to occur, rather than a broader inquiry that some lawmakers have proposed, the sources said

Tuesday's discussion followed a rare call to Daschle from Vice President Dick Cheney last Friday to make the same request.

"The vice president expressed the concern that a review of what happened on September 11 would take resources and personnel away from the effort in the war on terrorism," Daschle told reporters.

...more...

note that there was no concern that a fullblown quagmire in Iraq was not a worry regarding resources and personnel away from the effort in the war on terrorism.

I remember this well tho Cheney said he never had that talk with Daschle. Lies, lies lies, that all get swept under the rug.

this morning. Basically the same story. The noose looks to be tightening.

They might get thrax'd...seems that's what happens to people that mess with the BFEE.

Oh yeah, the FBI is still working HARD on catching the thrax letter mailer...honest...
