1. Certainly within the realm of possibility considering Bush's

haste to start the bombs bursting in Iraq.

2. The thing is Big Mo was sayin this back in the day 2001, 2002, 2003

Big Mo is my boy!

[Vinnie From Indy]

3. Is there any sane person that doubts it?

The amount of evil in the GW Bush Admin is almost impossible to quantify.

4. First of all 9.11 was more of an inside job

then a "suprise" attack.

[tomm2thumbs]

5. at 1:42, the sudden need to 'Get that guy off the air right now!!!'...eh?

because we have more important things to talk about, like Tiger Woods and celebrity news...

[CJCRANE]

6. Telling the obvious truth isn't "crazy", it's necessary.

I don't care what the MSM pundits say, I know the sky is blue, no matter how many times they tell me it's green.

7. and this is news how? n/t

[L. Coyote]

10. The inference that they made no effort to stop 9/11 so they could steal Iraq's oil??

Would that be news to the majority??

[BrklynLiberal]

8. There are some of us who thought of this immediately......

and we were sometimes forced to wear tinfoil hats... x(

[HopeHoops]

9. NO SHIT! This just occurred to him?

Where the hell WERE these people when BushCo was gearing up to invade Iraq? That was the plan all along.

They LET bin Laden escape. If he had been killed/captured, they wouldn't have had a reason to invade Iraq.

[snagglepuss]

11. Alot of people haven't clued into this. This should be kept front and centre.

[HopeHoops]

12. Yeah, we had the elite Marine units right there and they sent in the seven banana brothers instead.

Ironically, the argument at the time (not the current spin) was "we can't afford American casualties". Now they claim it would have alienated the locals. That's bullshit. Revisionist history, but that's the GOP for you. I assume FOX is spinning it as such.

13. The inspectors kept saying there is nothing here(WMD'S), and then they were

removed.

[cadmium]

14. Without Bin Laden who would do the election eve video tape? n/t

[lyonspotter]

15. Wish there had not been such a skittish...

...push for ending the discussion. This sort of material makes people uncomfortable, because it leads to depths of the rabbit hole that people don't want to admit exist.

16. MY Congressman!

One of the few to consistently bring up DSM even in the red counties he represents.

[Hulk]

17. I can't disagree....but,

aren't we getting a wee bit tired of Congressmen and wing nuts saying shit like this to get their name in the lights?

I'm so sick of phlem beck saying and doing the dumbest, most outrageous things to keep himself in the media spotlight....limpballs playing the game of being below the sewer line with his comments. I think they all took a lesson out of she-man coultier's play book. "just say or do anything outlandish and assinine, and you'll be in the news..."

Sorry folks..but it works. Nobody knew who Alan Grayson was until he threw gasoline on the fire with his comments. Again...they are quite true, but very inflamatory. This Congressman has done the same. How about that idiot from Carolina...joe "u-ly" wilson??

Not sure where I'm going with this post except I'm really getting tired of it all.

18. Not sure where I'm going with this post except I'm really getting tired of it all.

There is 8 years of crap to go thru. I'm glad someone with clout has said what a lot were thinking. The fact that it doesn't sound unreasonable is disturbing. The Bushies cried wolf and flip flopped so much they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt at all. I'm sure a lot more outrageous stuff will come up (is this scenario more unbelievable and "just show biz" as the FACT we killed prisoners by torturing them and then hid it?) It ain't just attention seeking when it's the truth.
