Might be the break!

I would look at door #2, "Power," although there is a back door not mentioned in your post, which is "covering up past coverups," referring to the OKC bombing. For more info on that particular coverup, see Jayna Davis' book, "The Third Terrorist." If people start digging into this event, they just might turn up old skeletons from 1995.

As I said, our elected officials seem to have a habit of letting us down. I honestly thought Tom Cole would be better than that. My bad.

Thanks for posting the transcript. I watched (in utter disbelief), but it's nice to have a source to quote if needed.

The Journal Punts

This article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal sets out to debunk speculation about whether Joel Hinrichs, the University of Oklahoma student who blew himself up outside the Oklahoma football stadium, may have intended a terrorist attack. It fails. The Journal cites a number of blogs, including us, who have talked about the OU incident. (We discussed it here, here, and here.) The reporters interviewed several bloggers for their story, but didn't make any attempt to contact us.

eastforker, There are lots of video senders available. RadioShack markets them, and you can probably find lots of others. No need to string wire, when Rf will do the job... These have rca outputs, and coaxial.

[ShakeNJake]

I have one of those too. I absolutely love it! I can watch TV and freep at the same time!

Thanks for the transcript. Let's hope Cole's scheduler has him booked solid for the debunking tour. Each performance only exposes the story to millions who may not have heard it. Since Cole offers nothing of substance to back his blanket reassurances that this was nothing, his mumblings are secondary to the bullet points set forth to set up the story.

I'm reminded of the old Gary Larson cartoon about "What Dogs Hear." Blah blah blah....Ginger.....blah blah blah....Ginger.

Anyone listening to this Cole interview would hear: Blah blah..bomb...blah blah...explosion....blah blah blah ammonium nitrate...blah blah blah....Pakistani roommate....blah blah blah....mosque....blah blah blah...Moussaoui...blah blahhhhhh.

Everyone likes JC. He's definitely from the "Faith Family and Values" wing of the Republican Party.

[OKSooner]

Cole, "Light in the Loafers" like Boren? I doubt it. My personal belief is just that he's beholden to certain powers that be in the Republican Party that have just as much to lose in the case of terrorism OVERALL, not just the OU Bomber...

OTOH, you nailed it about the loafers. That's what we've been hearing around here since back in the late '70s when Boren was just a spring chicken.

I myself wouldn't know about Tenent, except he and Boren are buddies...

[Eroteme]

As usual the Powerline blog nails it.

But the question whether Hinrichs was part of a terrorist cell is entirely different from the question whether he intended mass murder.

The essence of the "nothing to it" argument is based in the logical fallacy that terrorism is not terrorism unless there's an al-Qaeda union label on it. The American public doesn't give a rat's behind about such technicality.

Each media attempt to debunk and dismiss concerns about this bombing gives exposure to the fact that there was a bombing at all--which in turn gives rise to the followup questions. IMHO, the WSJ article and Fox interview, while conceived as fixit pieces to make the story go away, accomplish the exact opposite.

[cgbg]

I think this is one of those fairly rare "Rosetta Stone" events where public officials lie like crazy because they have many many things to cover up--the Vince Foster "suicide", the TWA 800 crash, the Ron Brown crash, the OKC bombing, and the assassinations of MLK, RFK and JFK come immediately to mind.

If you knew everything they don't want you to know about these events you would fully understand what the left calls para-politics, the action behind the stage.

Many Freepers are far too naive on these issues--while many others have been digging for the truth every day.

[RegulatorCountry]

"Well, there WAS an "accident" that morning of Sep 11.....in George Tenet's briefs."

Well, I guess it was fortuitous that Boren was there to help him out, then.

[R. Scott]

Is there a little bit of paranoia or racism in jumping in to believe that this person might have other motives other than a lone suicide?”

Of course it wasn’t just a lone suicide. The only reason to use a bomb is to take others with him. Initial reports (for what they are worth) stated he had been refused admission to the game when he didn’t allow his backpack to be searched.

Cole: “Well I think concern, yes, and uh, this is an individual frankly that had a history of dealing with explosives back to the time he was a teenager…

Uh oh – I once helped a farmer friend blow stumps when I was a teenager.

I think it is conservative against the establishment. If you notice all the conservatives are in the grassroots and the establishment here HATES the grassroots especially since we got Dr. Tom elected and defeated their establishment candidate. Never enjoyed working in a campaign so much in my life as I did Dr. Tom's.

The power of an "establishment" comes from its ability to grant or withhold favors to those who do their will. The essence of true conservatism is to try to limit govt power and cut govt spending -- which would cripple the establishment's ability to wield power.

The goal of an establishment (Dem or Pub) is to increase its own power, for the purpose of having power and increasing wealth. Don't think that being "connected" doesn't have value. The connected don't get hassled as much as the unconnected; and inside information on what's going to happen, and why, often translates into the opportunity to make investment decisions that put the connected ahead of the peasants

Senators investment portfolios generally do very well, for some reason

[Lexington Green]

Cole was a disgrace... and so is FOX for cooperating in this media handjob...

[PhiKapMom]

Unbelieveable! That's why they sealed the warrant and what they was found and I believe pigs fly. No wonder local law enforcement is so frustrated. They are doing a lot of security upgrades for one suicide bomber.

What is with people that were and are in Congress?

[hispanarepublicana]

You couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a LEO at the TTU game today.

[not2worry]

Ditto at South Bend for the Notre Dame Game. They even broadcast on the news the day before for anyone who saw anything out of the unusual to call the authorities. Said their would be tight security. BUT no mention as to why.

[MizSterious]

I wish you were kidding, but I know you're not. Everyone is very anxious to get everyone to "move on."
