Extractions: Web posted at: 6:24 p.m. EDT (2224 GMT) WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, August 8) Congressional Republicans and Clinton administration officials sparred again on Sunday over a $792 billion GOP tax cut plan passed last week that President Bill Clinton has vowed to veto. In an interview on NBC's "Meet The Press," White House Chief of Staff John Podesta repeatedly referred to the GOP plan as a "risky tax scheme." Podesta said, "This tax cut is bloated. It uses up the entire surplus. It provides not one cent for Medicare. It provides not one cent to extend the solvency of Social Security. It will not result in paying down the debt." In response, Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R- Mississippi) characterized the comments of White House officials on the tax cut plan as ranging from misstatements to "downright lies." "What part of the tax cut is it that the president doesn't like?" Lott said on ABC's "This Week." "Is he opposed to eliminating the marriage penalty tax? Is he opposed to more incentives for saving for education for the children? Is he opposed to eliminating the death tax?"

Extractions: Is there a smoking gun that shows the Bush administration knew 9/11 was likely to happen and did nothing about it? DAVID RAY GRIFFIN: I think there are four. One is the fact that standard operating procedures for dealing with possibly hijacked airplanes were not followed on 9/11. Those procedures call for fighter jets to be sent out immediately upon any sign that a plane may have been hijacked. These jets typically get to the plane within no later than 15 minutes anywhere in the United States. And on that day, there were four airplanes that went for a half-hour or more after they were hijacked without jets intercepting them.

WASHINGTON (CNN) The White House Wednesday expressed disappointment in CBS' decision to air portions of a videotape made by the captors of slain journalist Daniel Pearl, and said the Bush administration had urged the network not to show any of it. "The State Department spoke with CBS about that matter and expressed concerns about that being shown," White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said. "I know that Mrs. Pearl has very strong feelings about the damage that can be done as a result of showing that video," said Fleischer. "The administration has great sympathies for what Mrs. Pearl has said." Does that mean the White House believes CBS shouldn't have shown it?

Extractions: One of the nation's top political analysts, Stuart Rothenberg, dissects politics at the congressional and statewide levels. WASHINGTON (CNN) If you believe that Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore resigned as chairman of the Republican National Committee because he wanted to spend more time with his family, then I have some oceanfront property in Nebraska I'd like to sell you. In fact, Gilmore was pushed out of his RNC post by the White House, which has grown worried about the Committee's effectiveness and concerned about its responsiveness. Gilmore, 52, announced his decision to depart the RNC at a Friday morning general staff meeting. In a statement released by the committee, Gilmore cited the "countless celebrations and baseball games" that he missed with his two boys, and the "cherished and valuable time" that he missed with his wife. Given the extensive time commitment that his job required, and the increased commitment necessary over the next year, Gilmore announced that he will resign in mid-January. Nobody ever likes to admit that they were showed the door, but Gilmore was. I'm sure he missed family obligations over the years, and I'm certainly willing to believe that Gilmore would like to spend more time with his family. But none of that has anything to do with his departure from the RNC.

WASHINGTON (AP) In a historic move, Democratic presidential hopeful Howard Dean announced Saturday he is skipping public financing and the spending limits that come with it, hoping his money-raising power can help win the nomination and unseat President Bush. The 2004 race is the first time that candidates from both major parties will forgo the Watergate-era public financing system. Bush also is opting out, as he did in the 2000 Republican primaries and raised a record $100-plus million. Dean made his decision based on a high-tech tally of 600,000 supporters, whom he asked to vote by e-mail, Internet, telephone or regular mail through Friday.

Extractions: The X-rated "whitehouse.com" Web site has drawn the ire of the real White House, which has sent a letter challenging the owner's right to use the president and the first lady as a "marketing device." The case raises legal and ethical issues related to domain name registration, where an errant keystroke could send a user to an adult site instead of the intended onein this case, that of the official White House site at "www.whitehouse.gov." Examples abound on the Net, such as "yahhoo.com" (adult-oriented) instead of "yahoo.com," the search engine. (See related story) The one-man operation behind "whitehouse.com," Web page designer Dan Parisi of Secaucus, New Jersey, said today he was surprised to get the letter, which was signed by the counsel to the president, Charles F.C. Ruff, and sent on White House stationery to the post office box listed on his InterNIC domain name registration. So he called the White House, and sure enough, the legal staff confirmed it was for real. (So did associate counsel Lisa Hertzer Schertler, for CNET's NEWS.COM.)
