Weldon Compares 'Able Danger' to Watergate

Representative Curt Weldon, R-Pa., compared the PentagonÂ’s alleged cover-up of Operation Able Danger to the Watergate scandal, during the first open Congressional hearings on the matter Wednesday.

Weldon has alleged that Able Danger identified the hijackers involved in the 9/11 attacks months before September 11, but were unable to notify the proper law enforcement authorities because of a legal wall forbidding shared intelligence.

Weldon says he received his information from whistle-blowers within the Pentagon.
According to The Hill, Weldon issued his comparison in response to the denials of Stephen Cambone, undersecretary of defense for intelligence.
Cambone denied WeldonÂ’s claims that Pentagon whistle-blowers were intimated by their superiors against speaking publicly.

"How can we trivialize what these people have said?” Weldon asked.
"I do not understand,” he continued. "It is frustrating to me. I am not going to stop here. President Nixon had to resign over a third-rate burglary,” but thousands died in the September 11 attacks.
He also openly questioned both the Clinton and Bush administrations. "Maybe,” he said, neither administration wants to know what happened. Maybe I am offending everyone.”
The Hill reported that only a handful of lawmakers attended the hearing, and most deferred their question time to Weldon.

We worry about Dick Cheney but not this?
This should make everyone steaming mad. All the lawyers and PC losers put up all this tape and a 50 foot wall up making our intelligence agency as effective as a one legged man in an ass kicking contest.
Clinton, the lawyers, and every liberal who hates the military and the Fdefinitelyinately to blame....and if Bush is not concerned about fixing it, then you can throw him in the pot too.
The Government's number one job is not to give us welfare or free health care, it is to protect us...
Many in this country have forgotten that. We have story after story about how some liberal is pissed we are not giving away as many billions of dollars as he wants to give away to a bunch of losers who don't want to work....but NOTHING is said about a story that directly caused the death of over 3,000 people because our government did not do its number one duty...
