This is probably the only reason why the 911 Hearings are in progress AND why Condoleeza Rice has been forced to testify:
9/11 Widows Skillfully Applied the Power of a Question: Why?

Logic dictates that this commission should have been empowered by the end of 2001. However we now know why the George Jr administration so fears the facts be out. Repeated mismanagement directly traceable to the top man and his staff that still had a cold war mentality. An administration that wanted more oil (the Energy Bill that is only about more oil consumption) and the Axis of Evil (enemy nations only because the administration had decided so in advance).

At least the Clinton administration tried to get bin Laden. George Jr could not be bothered and then preferred that this 911 Hearings not be conducted. George Jr was more concerned about building another Star Wars - to the glory of his legacy. In reality, WTC is more his legacy.

Elliot, the Time Magazine editor who wrote the latest cover story makes an interesting comment. He thought this administration had thought out the consequences of a 911 Commission in advance. He is surprised that this George Jr administration is literally "blindsided by every revelation". It is as if the George Jr administration is totally in denial about their complacency even when they had and were reviewing Richard Clarke's book back in November 2003.

It took Jersey widows to get Washington to acknowledge what this administration is about. Those widows are very angry - justifiably so - that this administration has repeatedly obstructed this 911 Commission. A damning fact. The George Jr administration has been as uncooperative as they could be - for reasons that are now suspiciously obvious. Nixon also was uncooperative to the point that the Supreme Court had to rule unaminously against Nixon. Nixon was also uncooperative as to invade another sovereign nation for no justifiable reason - no smoking gun. Back then it was two unknown reporters. Today some Jersey widows?
