Reply #13: Here's what Gary Hart said on CNN-on easter sunday this year

[Generator]

Why Easter sunday? Huh? Big day for the newswatchers huh? I happened to catch this show.

SERWER: Senator, quick last question. Any reaction from the Bush administration to your take -- to your story?

HART: Well, very little because I don't think the press has confronted them with this. You know, it's been a great mystery to me how the 9/11 Commission could get to the stage of it's work and not call on the U.S. Commission on National Security which forecast these attacks. And I don't think they're going to call on us for -- to find out why we issued these warnings unless some reporters and journalists ask them that question. Why aren't you listening to the commission that forecast this?

CAFFERTY: Have you ask them to appear?

HART: Informally. I've asked why they haven't invited us to appear. But, it's a fine line. I'm -- I don't want to be in the position of seeking any kind of publicity, that's not the point. I would be very happy for other commissioners on this commission to appear, but I think they have to do it publicly. It's been suggested to me if I wanted to drop by and talk to the staff behind the scenes they would welcome that, but that only after I had made the inquiry. I think it's totally unsatisfactory. This commission cannot be taken seriously, be asked to be taken seriously, as a commission, if it doesn't take its predecessor seriously.

There's also more about him talking to Rice five days before 9/11, and her saying, "I'll talk to the Vice President."

Before I saw this I didn't even know about Hart/Rudman?? No need to tell the American people anything is there? Easter Sunday-it's so fricking ovbious.
