More Clarke One thing I've found striking about the 9/11 Commission testimony thus far is how defensive even the Clinton officials have been.

With the exception of Clarke, the witnesses (in the excerpts I've seen) don't sound like they've been scratching their heads for the last two and a half years, asking, "What more could we have done?"

Instead, people like Albright and Berger get pretty close--at least in moments--to arguing that they'd done everything possible to fight terrorism.

Frustrating.

Anyway, Daily Kos has some worthwhile comments on Clarke.

UPDATE: Ryan Lizza debunks another Clarke smear.
