Sibel Edmonds Vindicated
Of course, they waited until Friday afternoon to dump this news. To quote from the FAS report:
We found that many of Edmonds' core allegations relating to the coworker were supported by either documentary evidence or witnesses other than Edmonds. Moreover, we concluded that, had the FBI performed a more careful investigation of Edmonds' allegations, it would have discovered evidence of significant omissions and inaccuracies by the co-worker related to these allegations. These omissions and inaccuracies, in turn, should have led to further investigation by the FBI. In part, we attributed the FBI's failure to investigate further to its unwarranted reliance on the assumption that proper procedures had been followed by the FBI during the co-worker's hiring and background investigation, which did not include a risk assessment, contrary to FBI practice. We also found that Edmonds was justified in raising a number of these concerns to her supervisors. For example, with respect to an allegation that focused on the co-worker's performance, which Edmonds believed to be an indication of a security problem, the evidence clearly corroborated Edmonds' allegations.So who the heck is Sibel Edmonds? She's none other than the woman who blew the whistle on the corruption in Louis Freeh's FBI, that's who. You might remember Louis Freeh. He was a Republican judge who Bill Clinton hired in a show of genuine bipartisanship. He repaid Clinton's generosity by working 24/7 to undermine both Clinton and then-AG Janet Reno, when he should have been paying attention to the rise of right-wing terrorist militias in the US, as well as to the rise of Al Qaeda. Oh, and he was either too corrupt or too stupid to notice that one of his agents, the one he'd tasked with creating a bogus "Chinagate" scandal to hang around Clinton's neck, was carrying on an affair with Katrina Leung, the "Parlor Maid", Chinese Communist spy -- and longtime fixture in and fundraiser for the California Republican Party.

That's why Richard Clark couldn't stand the FBI. He knew what Lois Freehs' MO was, to undermine Clinton. The only FBI agent that Clark liked was John O'Neill, and he got booted out by Bush loyalists and then was killed in the towers on 9/11.
