This gang couldn't shoot straight if it tried.
This, via Atrios.
First, Condi says that:
"[Richard Clarke] was in every meeting that was held on terrorism...All the deputies' meetings, the principals' meeting that was held and so forth, the early meetings after Sept. 11."
Ms. Rice painted a distinctly different picture of the involvement of Mr. Clarke, who has prompted furious responses since he asserted in a new book and in testimony on Capitol Hill that President Bush did not heed warnings before the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Yet, yesterday Scott McClellan said:
'Dr. Rice, early on in the administration started holding daily briefings with the senior directors of the National Security Council, of which he was one. But [Richard Clarke] refused to attend those meetings, and he was later asked to attend those meetings and he continued to refuse to attend those meetings.' Apparently, some meetings are more important than others. "
