digitaldiscipline ◾ ◾ A call to the conspiracy

[in response to former Senator Gary Hart's editorial in Salon.com]

With the gradually increasing attention being given to the 9/11 Commission and the circus sideshow atmosphere that seems to be enveloping it, Mr. Hart's comments are chilling, but they also beg the question:

Why aren't the former commissioners volunteering their information to the public if they want it to be known? It sounds wonderfully conspiratorial to say "The President knew, but didn't act," but without knowing what it was he was told, merely having these documents hinted at, does little to solidly condemn his actions (or, in this case, inactions).

Saying you have a trained tiger in the basement is one thing; opening the cellar door and walking him out on a leash is a lot more compelling. All we've heard so far are muted sounds that might be roars, or they could be Memorex.

Mr. Hart, members of the U.S. Commission on National Security/21st Century, throw open the doors and let the light of truth out; no matter how blind Washington may want to be, the public will not.
