Seens the new god of the left got that one wrong right out of the gate.
it appears that you are correct, and have provided proof from a source that is not a right wing shill.
He did state in front of the commission that he refused to authorize it:
"This new account of the events seemed to contradict Clarke’s sworn testimony before the Sept. 11 commission at the end of March about who approved the flights.
“The request came to me, and I refused to approve it,” Clarke testified. “I suggested that it be routed to the FBI and that the FBI look at the names of the individuals who were going to be on the passenger manifest and that they approve it or not. I spoke with the — at the time — No. 2 person in the FBI, Dale Watson, and asked him to deal with this issue. The FBI then approved … the flight.”
now he takes full responsibility for it, and appears that the FBI had some imput into it as well.
new god of the left? you are confusing me with Howard Dean!! Yeeaarrrgggghghhhh!!
