FOFL!!! ... Bush blocked Cindy from calling into the Radio Station


Gee and all this time it was Rove's fault

[Peach]

On FNC this morning, Weldon said something to the effect that two people told him that after the Ruby Ridge debacle, the FBI didn't want any involvement in Atta.

I know that sounds ridiculous, and Weldon thought so too, it was clear.

Scratching head!

[tiredoflaundry]

and they also tended to view the business of breaking al Qaeda cells as a legal action that had to pass muster with the ACLU.

Unbelievable!

[Fudd Fan]

Hey you have another post to you from Tony! LOL

I also agree with him about the Clinton administration not "setting up" GWB as much as implementing their litigious approach to terrorism -- which I've taken as part of their willingness to pass problems along down the road for ANY future administration.

[Peach]

FYI for the thread:

Rush just replayed Weldon this morning on FNC.

And he said the FBI didn't want any part of the Able Danger information for reasons posted earlier (The Wall) but also because after the negative fall out from Waco, they just didn't want to handle it.

(Earlier up thread I said it was because of Ruby Ridge).

So this is what our FBI has come to. They don't want negative fall out.

[Fudd Fan]

It could very well have been due to Ruby Ridge as well, that was obscene.

[Peach]

Well, I just asked Mr. Peach who has the memory of an elephant and he said that Weldon said both Ruby Ridge and Waco this morning.

So the clip that Rush just played where Weldon just mentioned Waco could be from another interview altogether.

Either way, I'm so glad that Weldon is passionate about this. His interview this morning was one of the best I've ever heard about any topic.

Mr. Peach and I were dressing in the bedroom and I started blowing kisses at the television which is what really caught Mr. Peach's attention. LOL

[Fudd Fan]

LOL! Bless your heart.

[defconw]

:) Cooler head prevails! I appreciate the post, yours sounds way more rational.

[defconw]

I just saw it, I attempted to go for a run. I did not get very far, it's about 95 and very humid! Good Excuse?
Tony's right but I drag out the tinfoil once in a while just in case it sticks! LOL

[Txsleuth]

Is there a thread going about this Able Danger pre-9/11 thing?

I just heard on Fox News that NOW, the 9/11 Commission is going to go back over records to see IF they were told about it...

HA-Haaaaaaaaaaaaa All Bush has heard from them is that HE didn't do a good enough job, and he ISN'T doing a good enough job, BUT, it sounds like THEY didn't do a good enough job!!!

Whatagotcha!!!!!

[baseballmom]

It's time to have this dialogue. Without it, the decisions of our highest court, already tainted by the Bush-Gore election, will increasingly be perceived as self-serving, political, and illegitimate.

Ah, there's the rub. Still not over the election of 2000.

As for trying to compare Roberts and Kerrys roles in the process, it doesn't make sense. Kerry, as a senator,is a lawmaker. Roberts job is to rule if the laws the senate and house pass are constitutional. Big difference.

[defconw]

Don't celebrate prematurely, it will some how or other be anybody but the Democrats fault. The best we can do is neutralize the creeps. Does make you wonder whther this was part of what Sandy Berger took and maybe that's the delay in sentencing? Justice working on this? I have not seen a thread on it, but I'll my eyes peeled!

[Txsleuth]

You know what is so weird?

There are like 50 different threads about Cindy Sheehan---and all of the them are good, but

I cannot find an ongoing thread about this pre 9/11 intelligence....

I heard just this afternoon on Fox, that the 9/11 commission are really upset and sent their minions to the archives to go over every piece of evidence that was submitted....

Also, that Rummy said yesterday that he didn't know anything about this (I saw him say that), BUT, now the Pentagon is saying that they DID turn over records with this information in them to the 9/11 commission 2 years ago!

Plus, Neil Cavuto had on Kristin Breitweiser (jersey girl) and she is STILL ripping Bush, even though this intelligence was turned over to the Clinton Administration...

So, at least Fox News is having a lot of stories...but I can't find a thread to "discuss" these new developements on....frustrating...but I can't just start a thread on news bits from Fox....

If you find a thread, let me know...I already have Fudd Fan looking also.

Thanks for the excellent interview with Burt Rutan. Just heard it last hour here in Northern Colorado on KCOL 600am. We get your show on a 9 hour tape delay basis.
