Commenting on your observations of last night's Larry King.

I saw only a bit, but do they have a call screener or not?

They allowed a woman caller on who asserted she knew a guy who worked in the towers and said that Monday 9/10 one of the buildings was cordoned off and bomb-sniffing dogs were there, then she demanded of Hughes if in fact the government did not have a heads up.

Karen said flatly that they did not,that she'd never heard of such a thing---she pointed out the Mayor Guiliani and all of the police involved, not to mention other workers would be witnesses and would come forward if that had happened. Then she said she did not believe the caller. Larry said he'd never heard of that before, either (duh--of course not).

I was amazed they would let a nutcase like that on the air to spew such a thought that of course some in the audience would file away as the truth of the matter, facts be damned. Then I remembered I was watching CNN and clicked away.

That's ludicrous.

Even if it wasn't, what good is it if you think plain old bombs are planted - vs planes incoming from 400 mi away? Who'da thought?

I hate all this blame-some1-and-make-them-pay nonsense. There is only 1 set of people to blame: the Islamonuts who planned and performed the whole thing.

I'm sure they have a call screener although I've never phoned in to Larry. Yes, I heard that bit about the bomb sniffing dogs...it was summarily dismissed. I watched it in fits and starts...mostly fits. I saw another post in which Larry King said Ted Kennedy delivered a "blistering attack" on the administration. Larry and Ted, pajama buddies.
