Tim Roemer (9/11 comm.) on c-span speaks blather

[donsu]

he was a guest on Washington Journal sounding like a bushgang member. He didn't actually answer questions but changed the subject or blathered on about something else.

time after time he avoided answering a question.

isn't he supposed to be a dem?

just whose side is he on anyway.

[qanda]

1. He talks too much

He seemed surprised that the people calling in knew so much about 911 and the facts that need to come out. Earth to the people in Washington-- not everyone is stupid!

[rwork]

2. He kept going on

about how eloquent Condi would sound. A caller said to forget the eloquence, we want the truth.

[Lindsey]

3. Is he a Repub.or Dem?

I heard it too and I thought he's a repub.

[rwork]

6. He sounds like a repub.

Don't know for sure.

8. That Was Me....

I had many more questions to ask him but thought it best to simplify.

I also wanted to call him on his use of the term "blame" game. I wanted to tell him it should be called the "accountability" game.

[Cocoa]

4. commissioners seem to be preparing us

They know the final report is going to be a whitewash, and are worried about getting our hopes up that it's going to be a real report.

5. I saw it--his tone has changed dramatically since last week

I wonder what happened?

7. He had a visit from his friendly local BFEE rep maybe? n/t

9. BTW, has anyone noticed how Repugs have now..........

taken up the mantra of...... "leave the past behind" with regard to the 9/11 commision and possible findings?" "We need to look ahead not behind....."

Some how I don't remember all the "looking ahead" when the Repugs were looking into a 20 year old Arkansas housing development back in '92.
