7. They ALL looked sick
Rumsfelds hands were shaking! Myers had a look of "oh shit" on his face. That was the key and they knew it. THEY ARE DONE NOW! DONE!

5. Roemer up now
Edited on Tue Mar-23-04 04:58 PM by DancingBear
Asking Rummy - "Did you consider Al-Queda a first-order threat, and if so what did you do about it?"

Wolfie looks like he needs a bathroom, BTW.

Rumbutt doesn't even know if meetings were held, just a lunch here and there with Tenet.

9. Roemer now disproving allegations
that Al-Queda was "number one priority" of *. Asked Rummy if prior to 9/11 there were meetings w/regard to same.

Rummy says "well, you have the records so you'd know."

Roemer - "Our records say no."

Rummy- "Oh."

11. Wolfies turn

Using football analogies - a plan is like a single play in football - is not the whole game.

Seven months not long enough to produce a game plan - didn't want to try "Hail Mary" pass and hope they'd win.

In laypersons terms - he's lying his ass off.
