The panel accepted a deal that allows the White House to "edit" Bush's intel briefings (remember the Aug 6th memo warning of Al-qaeda attacks).

WASHINGTON - The federal commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks will get greater access to classified intelligence briefings prepared for President Bush (news - web sites) under an agreement announced Tuesday with the White House.

The 10-member, bipartisan panel had been barred from reviewing notes taken by three commissioners and the commission's executive director, Philip Zelikow, who reviewed the data in December but couldn't take the summaries with them. Under the agreement, the entire commission were allowed to read versions of the summaries that were edited by the White House.


Commissioners reviewed the materials in a daylong meeting Tuesday and said the information provided a better understanding of what the government knew prior to Sept. 11. The panel now is seeking additional interviews with several officials, including national security adviser Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites).

1. It is probably better not to look into the 9-11 events too closely

It is unlikely that an actual investigation would uncover anythihng that would reassure voters.

2. What a Disgrace

My heart goes out to the 9/11 families, who simply want the truth.

They will never get the truth while Bush controls the power.
