ABC "News" nnot find enough time or space to accurately report on Iraq, the Economy, the NSA, Immigration and virtually EVERY other isse of importance but can find time and space to waste on the Hate American Always Crowds lunatic stupitiy about 9-11. The sooner they go bankrupt, the better.

New Tape Stirs Up 9/11 Conspiracy Theories ABCnews.com ^ | 5-16-03 | Staff Posted on 05/16/2006 4:59:04 PM PDT by veronica The minute the Pentagon released images of the Sept. 11 attack on its building, the message boards at ABCNEWS.com lit up with conspiracy theories. Some blame it on an inside job by members of the Bush administration to benefit their business interests. Some say it was planned by neoconservatives to advance their worldview. Others don't know what happened but doubt the official story put forward by the government. The world of conspiracy theories surrounding the Sept. 11 attacks is vast, and more than four years after the worst terrorist incident on U.S. soil, countless scenarios are put forth on the Internet, in academic forums and on talk radio each day. Some are of the "MIHOP" variety, which claim people in power made it happen on purpose, while others are of the "LIHOP" kind — they let it happen on purpose. With Tuesday's release of video footage of American Airlines Flight 77 crashing into the Pentagon building, an attack that killed 184 people on Sept. 11, questions rage again. "It doesn't clarify anything — I don't see a plane in that image," said Michael Berger, spokesman for 911Truth.org. "In fact, I thought that was underwhelming." Berger said 911Truth.org "would like to see various conspiracy theories laid to rest as well" and does not believe the government has addressed "inherent contradictions" in evidence and testimony surrounding the events of that day. "We would like to know what happened," he said. "Four-and-a-half years later, we still don't have definitive proof that a plane hit that building." Berger said the group "has never said one way or another what happened at the Pentagon," but it did support the Freedom of Information Act requests that led to the Pentagon releasing the footage. But 911Truth.org does believe Sept. 11 has been used as the "justification for broader policies," both foreign and domestic, he said. Barrie Zwicker, a Canadian investigative reporter, documentary filmmaker and author of the upcoming book "Towers of Deception: The Media Cover-Up of 9/11," said the video does not answer the question of how any aerial vehicle — "a 757 or a missile or a fighter equipped with a missile or a fighter alone or a blimp or a Cessna" — could make it to the "central headquarters of the greatest military power that ever existed." "Even if it was a model airplane, for God's sake," Zwicker said. He also questioned the timing of the video's release. "For them to be releasing this video so late, why so late and why now?" he said.
Thanks for posting that. Nice to know my Critter isn't a total clod.
Deport by way of train DEPOT?
Some people wanna blame Bush for everything. A ton of it has nothing to do with him.
If you mean the President, I wasn't aware this was his amendment......
All three NE reps voted for!! Good for them!! Lee Terry is such a wonderful guy.
(Hates fireworks on 4th July -- wife Robyn is a firebug)
Looking forward to seeing him at the tent again this year. He BS's while she buys out the tent
If the Torch was involved with Oil-For-Food, I'm for charging him with treason. No way should a Senator be involved with Saddam, N F W.
PHHHHHPppttt. An unnatural fixation on other people's spell is a sign of latent Liberalism you know. :-)
bttt
My Congressman is John Mica- he is absolutely great. (Florida) He voted for this- I was pleased to see.
I think Clint N Sucks said the hot dogs suck.
Dowe have to turn this into an immigration battle thread today?
I would prefer not....I'm still working on Wednesdy's thread.
I actually have never heard Bush comment on this one way or another. Blame your Sen if you like
Ok, two misspelling in a row, I really got to get back to work now.
Look at those prices...
And I thought $4+ for 8 Nathan's dogs was too steep!
Thanks for pointing that out, Johnnie. It appears from some remarks made by Senator Sessions this morning in the Senate that this bill was written largely by pro-amnesty, pro-illegal organizations getting together with McCain/Kennedy/Hagel/Menendez. Sessions has been asking for weeks who wrote this thing, realizing as he did that there was alot of really bad stuff in it that did not get there by accident, but rather was quite intentional. It seems he was able to find out who the culprits were.
How was the Levin lounge yesterday? Crazy?
I just paid 2.50 for a pack of Ballpark franks...and thought that was steep.
Comment on what?
Letting illegals run all over the place?
You've got to be kidding? George wants to give them all amnesty, and all their friends and family too!
What are you talking about?
Wimmer's is still my favorite!!
