Raymond,
"Where did George Bush go today to primp in front of the cameras about jobs?"
And this is the best you can do to 'prove' that the military is in charge of the United States? I notice you didn't bother to comment on my observations that the military must have elected Clinton to office.
"Remember, the uniformed military is just one side of the revolving door of the military-industrial complex. You need to consider the rest of the cabal, as well"
Yes, and you need to supply convincing evidence about your alleged 'cabal' to demonstrate that they can manipulate the election process without anybody getting the wiser.
"You do know that the Supreme Court's decision on December 12, 2000 was strictly extra-Constitutional and in the view of many Constitutional scholars and lawyers completely illegal
No, I don't know that. I request you supply some links for this assertion. As I recall the U.S. Supreme Court over-ruled the Florida court, which is their right, and denied Gore a ballot recount because a fair recount could not be accomplished within the time limits set by Florida law. Upon this decision Gore promptly conceded defeat. I understand full well that a lot of people didn't like the Supreme Court decision for political reasons, but the decision was completely legal. Keep in mind this. Regardless of the Supreme Court decision BUSH WON THE VOTE. A recount of the vote that took place well after the Supreme Court decision demonstrated that Bush would've won the vote anyway. Thus, even if the Supreme Court had allowed the recount, Bush still would've won.
" the curious U.S. Supreme Court decision that the software to run these devices is to be considered "proprietary" and therefore inaccessible to any public auditing"
False!!! In the state of Maryland, where I live, the electronic balloting process begins with a real paper ballot which the voter fills out by marking black boxes with a pencil. The ballot is fed into a scanner which registers the votes. THE ORIGINAL PAPER BALLOT IS KEPT in the event a recount is required or if a scanner is shown to have malfunctioned.
"You are being disingenuous when you sniffily dismiss the Florida vote fraud as a matter of "hanging chads"."
Bush won the vote. What difference does it make what perceived political shenanigans you think Jeb Bush or Katherine Harris did? They didn't manipulate the ballot box.
"It is very commonly understood in the SI community that the response of NORAD and the USAF on the morning of 9/11 did not follow standard operating procedures".
I guess you're seriously suggesting that Bush or mysterious forces unnamed intentionally suppressed the nations air defenses so that the 911 morons could get away with murder.
The first two jets hit WTC within 18 minutes of each other. The President was informed at 9:30 a.m. and the third plane hit the Pentagon 13 minutes later.
Nobody in government had an inkling of the magnitude of the events taking place that morning much less have the time to do anything about it.
Even had the entire US Air Force been in the air that morning do you really think that President Bush would've ordered them to shoot down passenger liners headed for large cities, military facilities or nuclear plants? No one in a position of responsibility could've issued an order like that without knowing all the facts.
"Try this. Enter <Who stood down on 9/11?> into the Google search engine. You will get 182,000 hits"
99% of those 'hits' had to do with 911. All you have shown me is that are some really sick ultra-right wing wacko conspiracy websites out there that are willing to print the most audacious lies imaginable. I noticed that none of these lies are being repeated by CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, Reuters, AP, BBC or anybody else who cares about their credibility. |
