Charles Krauthammer's Opinion of Richard Clark's Apology to the Families of 9/11 Victims
2004-04-02
Posted by:Mike Sylwester

#4  Quote from CK's column:

"Second, by blaming the government for the deaths of their loved ones, Clarke deftly endorsed the grotesque moral inversion by which those who died on Sept. 11 are victims of . . . George Bush. This is about as morally obscene as the implication (made by, among others, the irrepressible Howard Dean) that those who died in the Madrid bombings were also victims of George Bush."

Works for me, and sums it up rather nicely.

#3  Did anyone notice this exchange in the mainstream partisan media?
Former senator Slade Gorton: "Assuming that the recommendations that you made on January 25th of 2001 . . . had all been adopted say on January 26th, year 2001, is there the remotest chance that it would have prevented 9/11?"

Clarke: "No."


Didn't think so. That should also be enblazoned on the dust jacket of Clarke's book.

I know what I think of Clarke's apology, but I don't know what The Hammer thinks. Sigh.
