UPDATE ON MUKASEY & "THE CALL"

I still haven't gotten a reply to my e-mail to DOJ although Glenn did. Glenn also got a reply from Lee Hamilton, co-chair of the 9-11 Commission, who denied that he or the Commission were informed of The Call. Glenn concludes:

One of two things is true about Mukasey's extraordinary claim about how and why the 9/11 attacks occurred. Either:

(1) The Bush administration concealed this obviously vital episode from the 9/11 Commission and from everyone else, until Mukasey tearfully trotted it out last week; or,

(2) Mukasey, the nation's highest law enforcement officer, made this story up in order to scare and manipulate Americans into believing that FISA and other surveillance safeguards caused the 9/11 attacks and therefore the Government should be given more unchecked spying powers.
