Clarke isn't acting like he has anything to hide at all. Contrast Bush!

From Press the Meat:

Former U.S. counterterrorism chief Richard Clarke Sunday called on the White House to make public his own testimony to Congress as well as other statements, e-mails and documents about how the Bush administration handled the threat of terror.

Clarke, center of a firestorm over the level of engagement of President Bush in the issue before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, was responding to Republican allegations that his earlier testimony to Congress contradicted statements he made last week that criticized Bush.

"I would welcome it being declassified, but not just a little line here or there. Let's declassify all six hours of my testimony", he said on NBC's "Meet the Press."

Hey, just because John Kerry called for releasing all the documents doesn't make it a bad idea!

Pass the popcorn!

Oh, and while we're at it, the PDBs too. You know, the ones both Bush and Condi read, and don't want to show the originals of—not even originals with portions blacked out. I wonder why? Initials? Annotations?

UPDATE More:

Sharpening his criticism, former counterterrorism chief Richard Clarke said President Clinton was more aggressive than Bush in trying to confront al-Qaida, Osama bin-Laden's organization.

"He did something, and President Bush did nothing prior to September 11," Clarke told NBC's "Meet the Press."

"I think they deserve a failing grade for what they did before" Sept. 11, Clarke said of the Bush's administration. "They never got around to doing anything."

Clarke said a sweeping declassification of documents would prove that the Bush administration neglected the threat of terrorism in the nine months leading up to the attacks.
