Fascinating look at this. You'll never see a discussion of this in the MSM.

Especially considering the photos of the aftermath clearly show that the exlosions blew the floor upwards.

That's because President Bush is bad and wrong and must be attacked every day until election day and low poll numbers must be on the front page every week and pretend scandals must also be presented every week and if the MSM actually covered news then they wouldn't be able to do that, silly.

Thnx for the comment, I am glad you enjoyed my article.

If you would allow me to say, and I hope that this is ok to say here, but I would like to encourage you and others to consider posting items with us. I am more than willing to work with people on editing, etc to get their thots published at Spero, which indeed is aimed at getting a different perspective -- non-MSM -- on news out.
