Well I paraphrased it, but they are saying it was unprecedented.

Typically uncareful. "Unprecedented" (while incorrect in itself) refers to something other than 'helpfulness' in the formation and prosecution of this commission, which this administration has NOT been. It has been obstructionist.

What's so intriguing to me is, Condoleezza Rice testified under oath, but neither Bush or Dick had to testify under oath. Kinda' like a chat a couple of guys might have in a sports bar someplace. Shocked

If you recall, part of the "deal" the administration made was that if they allowed the commision to speak to Condi, they would only be allowed one shot at Bush and Cheney together (not under oath, so they could lie), and would not ask to recall any of the administration's people as witnesses.

What do you mean by "typically uncareful"?

Your statement that "It has been obstructionist" also needs to be panned out. What do you mean by that? How has it been obstructionist? By creating the commission? By giving the commission unfettered access to everything it needs? By testifying in front of the commission?
