So some people think.

At first I laughed, and then I realized I'm not sure I'm getting your point.

I remember the last two coming off of different South Pacific islands when I was a kid. I believe I recall that they both had the same commanding officer, and wouldn't surrender until he flew out and gave them permission to do so.

The wise I watched that news conference and noted two very important items:

---this particular plane does not allow fuel dumping and

---there were no signs of birds

Now I posted a missive on another thread and was accused of wearing a tin-foil hat not to mention my recent sign-up date.

So who's wearing a tin foil hat now? The Governor of NY, master of fuel-dumping? Or whoever the heck said freaking BIRDS caused that plane to fall out of the sky.

I understand birds are a problem, believe it. Given a series of unfortunate events, a flock of birds sucked into a jet engine could cause the plane to crash. But no way would birds cause both those jet's engines to fall off. This is kinda like Bob Stevens drinking out of that stream what gave him anthrax.

They were all just speculating and ruminating. Something done very well on this site.

Only when WE speculate and ruminate we admit that's what we're doing. When the Governor of NY engages in such activity on a public stage, folks tend to give that more import.

You ask me, FreeRepublic should take over the government.

However, It has not rule out Red hot Chile Peppers, M&M or Iced T from causing the damage.....that is all.....

Four minutes would hardly be time enough for a rock star or rapster to get all liquored up and surly.

> Well, if it is terrorism, why cover it up anyway? Why hide this? What's the point?

Because it is damned embarrassing...while the Dembopublicans fight all the day long over Airport Security.

I read that the plane went belly up right here (by a supposed eyewitness, transcribed by a source that I trust implicitly).
The max power thingy... That's the first I've seen/heard about it.

It just had an inspection the day before

I'll bet. Plus extra inspection that delayed the flight for an hour just prior to takeoff. With inspections like that, who needs sabotage.

I thought the government cover up of this confirmed terrorism was because of the economy. I never thought of embarassment as being a motive for Bush to lie to the American people. Sounds like something he would do.

stinger??

A Singer would have gone for a heat source, an engine. Sounds like an engine dropped off its pylon and hit the tail.

continuously portraying the NTSB as the worthless world headquarters of constant lies and deceit and conpsiracy and then proudly trumpet something the NTSB says as proof of whatever theory or position they have

Since when have the tinfoilers ever been logical or consistent? Logic itself, in fact, is a conspiracy by the man to put them down and cover up the greater cosmic conspiracy.
