Jamie S. Gorelick served as Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno. A significant part of the 9/11 commission's report considered whether she or Ashcroft was more to blame for the effects of the "wall" she created between CIA and FBI.
- The 9/11 Commission’s inquiry into the "wall" that formerly separated U.S. intelligence from law enforcement operations has become a news story du jour. (Lew Rockwell)
- If Jamie Gorelick were a Republican, you can be sure our colleagues in the Fourth Estate would be leading the chorus of complaint that the Commission's objectivity has been fatally compromised by a member who was also one of the key personalities behind the failed antiterror policy that the Commission has under scrutiny. -- Wall Street Journal
