I think the 9/11 Commission could watch it non-stop for a month, and still justify their actions. Because to admit they are wrong, and there were people in power who could have prevented it, is to say they are powerless. And you know what that means. Every man for himself. No more big government watching over us. The end of D.C. as they know it and have become addicted to. POS all of them
yes it is
You are lucky to get pics from your daughter...when my hubby was in Iraq I got a handful of pics over 15mos...he hates taking pictures....
They mentioned that people working at McDill Air Force Base had a chart with Atta and al-Shehhi's pictures on it. But it was decided the information was unusable against persons with valid visas. That fits in with the description of the Able Danger id. So where's the chart now? Somebody somewhere must have a copy of this thing.
"I thank God for all our military."
Amen.
Nite all, doubt I will sleep though..
I didn't say that Iran went out and recruited OBL. It's where OBL wanted to go.
Pakistan has been killing Al Qaeda. Iran has not. Musharref is helping in the WOT. Iran is not.
Why would OBL want to be in Pakistan?
Agreed.
A lot of editing, no doubt.
Thanks, it means a lot to our family. She was able to read most of the threads I've posted and was extremely moved by everyone's blessings and thanks. She's just too overwhelmed to post now. I was hoping she'd do a thread, but, I'm not going to push that. She's busy Great Lakes fishing right now :)
On the Contrary, I sensed it was very fair
I mean, they didn't have to mention Monica lewinsky Twice and show a minutes worth of embarassing Clinton footage
More evidence to support the Lt Col.
I watched that elephant thing before the 9/11 special...
It is not fun...they show elephants being killed, and stomping on people and killing them....yuck!
"what is shocking is the behaviour of the republican members. what total wastes. as Rush said, the political class in DC, regardless of party, first focuses on protecting itself."
Yes. I called my US Senator to complain about Sheehan. The response I got was that she was "the grieving mother".
I told them to forget that line, that I knew she was trained be Soros and Moore for this gig and to DO SOMETHING. Needless to say, the response was nothing special.
Until tomorrow ...
Here's a thought, do you think it's all Bush's fault because they know it's not his fault? I know that sounds weird, but, are they are trying to cover up the impeached one's actions by using Iraq as a smokescreen?
WTF? Why isn't it torn down? What's wrong with this country?
SOP in DC ...

the tribal areas are still a safe haven, the ISI is loaded with AQ sympathizers, Musharraff would not risk turmoil in he country by giving the US free run to locate OBL there and kill him.
let's say OBL was in Iran and we found his location. we could bomb that place into oblivion to get him, with very little reprecussion. iran is already an enemy of the US, bombing them means nothing. bombing pakistan is another story, they are an ally. I would much rather hide in a location that had some built-in protection against US military operations, then in a country that did not have such guarantees.
I much agree. Sadly.
I suspect this will go up until the war in Afghanistan
Vot just posted to remind us about tonight's show...I posted questioning whether he/she was starting a LIVE thread...and it just started...
So, I have a feeling there will be one tomorrow night...
Did any of ya'll that didn't get to see it feel like we, that were relaying information, did an OKAY job, or did you feel totally lost and left out?
Because I could probably have done better job of describing show..but my jaw was hanging down to my keyboard, I was just astonished how much stuff there was that I hadn't heard.
Now, tomorrow night will be HARD...I watched for hours and hours when it really happened...I don't think I slept a whole night through for over a week...
