On the eve of a Republican National Convention invoking 9/11 symbols, sound bytes and imagery, half (49.3%) of New York City residents and 41% of New York citizens overall say that some of our leaders "knew in advance that attacks were planned on or around September 11, 2001, and that they consciously failed to act," according to the poll conducted by Zogby International. The poll of New York residents was conducted from Tuesday August 24 through Thursday August 26, 2004. Overall results have a margin of sampling error of +/-3.5.

“Some knew of the impending attacks, but they were DEMOCRATS.”

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner!

[word_warrior_bob]

That and and rising tides on the coasts and a CA earthquake and the democrats wouldn’t win a national election for 50 years. They would blame Bush though.

Half of New Yorkers are also of below average intelligence.

[word_warrior_bob]

You and FFranco need to elaborate, you think democrats were behind 9/11???

[popdonnelly]

What can you do in the face of such derangement? People obviously base their political decisions on illusions.

[word_warrior_bob]

That’s the question, why have we let liberals dominate school curriculum, dominate our colleges, journalism, entertainment, etc.

We need our own network to bring people back to reality, not the left wing Media Matrix version of reality.

Two thirds of New Yorkers are foreign born. They bring with them the Conspiracy Theory mentalities of their Third World/East Europe hellhole homelands. Educated in the NY public schools, their offspring will be no better. And , once nationalized, they have the same vote as real Americans. WE ARE IMPPORTING THE SEEDS OF FUTURE DISASTER.

As Orwell said, "some things are so stupid only an intellectual could believe them."

And, as we all know, NYC is just chock full of "intellectuals," or at least that's what they keep trying to tell us.

[hinckley buzzard]

It isn't just NYC though. Half of British think Robin Hood was real and Winston Churchill fictional.

They know so much that just isn’t so. - Reagan

[PghBaldy]

I too would like some evidence on that belief that Dems knew about 9/11 plot before it happened.

[hinckley buzzard]

I’m pretty sure many in the intelligence community did have facets of the knowledge of impending attacks

Facts are not knowledge until processed by a guiding intellect. Nobody "Knew" there would be an attack on 9/11.

Lucy, you got some ‘splainin to do.

Most New Yorkers are paranoid Dimbeciles who see conspiracies in every thing that they don’t understand...o of course, the entire word is filled with conspiracies that are specifixcally directed at them.

NYC has a ratio of 5 Democrats to 1 Republicans, so it is said...

[Sacajaweau]

Which side of the wall would know...What's her name??

No matter...Bubba's "do nothing" after the 1993 hit on the NY Tower was like giving the terrorists a green light. Add on Daschle's wife...The "LOBBIEST" who said no to upping airplane security.

Bubba effectively "CREATED" the terrorists' plan.

[word_warrior_bob]

I don’t think we’ll be hearing back from them.

[Non-Sequitur]

One of the more vocal supporters of this conspiracy theory is Phil Berg, the guy currently suing Obama over his birth certificate.

[LottieDah]

Sarcasm....Democrats KNOW EVERYTHING...many New Yorkers (unlike me and my family) are Democrats, therefore the believe that U.S. leaders had forknowledge of Impending 9/11 Attacks...they also believe that Al Gore was really elected in 2000.

[Does so]

"...Then “Half of New Yorkers” are as stupid as they look..."

I've often wondered why Municipal Bonds were made tax-free. Like SSI, it's a form of welfare...but for many city-bound über-rich?

We need tax-free Rural bonds.
