Eventually the "couple in Florida" copped a plea and the public never did find out what the FBI really discovered.
There's no doubt the "couple in Florida" were nothing more than designated fallguys for Iraqi intelligence agents operating out of Florida. McDermott becomes their puppet way back in 1996/97, and finds himself and his friends involved in what was to become the "9/11 Attack on America".
No doubt these Democrat goofballs thought that the American people would be so revulsed by what would look like George Bush' ineptitude that they would cry out to be saved by the Democrats.
One thing leading to another, the Dems would be back in power, the Reps out on the street, and a popular coup would have taken place. ~ for the cognizenti, this is the "Reichstag Fire scenario" a number of Dems have accused the Republicans of thinking up. No doubt they are "projecting"!
We might also check out the US Attorney that let the "couple in Florida" skate? Was she part of the AlQaida conspiracy or just one of many Dems Saddam was paying off? That's certainly a question somone in John Ashcroft's Justice Department ought to find an answer for.
