== Testimony Before 9/11 Commission ==
In March 2004, Rice was involved in a high-profile controversy over her refusal to publicly testify under oath before the [[National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States]].
Additional, or redundant, information about this testimony can be found in the article [[National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States: Testimony (Condoleezza Rice)]].
Debate on her role in counter-terrorism policy increased after testimony and a contemporary book by [[Richard A. Clarke]], ''Against All Enemies''. When former White House counter-terrorism adviser, Richard Clarke, gave evidence on March 25, 2004 he bluntly said that Bush's national security advisers, and Rice in particular, had failed to take warnings of al-Qaida attacks on America seriously.
Rice thus became the first sitting National Security Advisor to testify on matters of policy. [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A61252-2004Apr8.html]
