Kudos to Matthew Yglesias for acknowledging Jamie Gorelick has a conflict of interest on the 9/11 Commission and should never have been appointed (even if he’s not sure she should resign). As he notes in the comments, “her own work is part of what the commission needs to scrutinize.” Interestingly enough, most of the other thoughtful, lefty bloggers (Drum, Kleiman, DeLong, the Timberites) are silent on the issue, as are Yglesias’ colleagues at TAPped.
