Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist
WASHINGTON, April 29 (UPI) -- Former Clinton official Jamie Gorelick contributed to a "wall" of information between law and intelligence agencies, Justice Department memos say.
The documents, released Wednesday by the Justice Department at the request of two Senate Republicans, drew renewed calls for Gorelick, a member of the Sept. 11 commission, to testify publicly before the commission about the so-called "wall" that some blame for clearing the way for the 2001 terrorist attacks, the Washington Times said.
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Gorelick's policies contributed to "blinding America to this terrible threat."
Among other things, several internal documents written in summer 1995 show Gorelick, the No. 2 person in the Justice Department during the Clinton years, rejected a warning from the U.S. attorney in New York, who advised against imposing more limits on communications between law officials and prosecutors pursuing counter-terrorism cases.
