Virginia Governor Tim Kaine has just appointed a commission to investigate the Va. Tech shootings:

"The panel will be headed by Col. Gerald Massengill, a retired former superintendent of the Virginia State Police. Massengill headed the agency during the Washington-area sniper shootings of 2002 and the terrorist attack on the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. In addition to Massengill, Kaine appointed Tom Ridge, the first director of the federal Department of Homeland Security..."

Do you remember the strange code phrase "caught like a duck in a noose" that terminated the D.C. sniper incident? And what happened to the videos of the Pentagon attack from the all those Arlington, Va. area surveillance cameras?
