Well, I guess you're going to duck this post...

...so, let's take a closer - and indeed, a truly skeptical - look at the assertions made in this one.

I always wondered why their names didn't appear on the passenger manifests?!?

You can stop "wonder[ing]" - they did. September 13th, 2001:

"...After an initial review of passenger manifests from the flights involved, investigators began looking at several people, including at least one with suspected links to bin Laden, the wealthy Saudi exile living in Afghanistan accused of masterminding the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa."

The two smoking guns are the fact that they announced the hijackers just hours after the events on 9/11, like how did they know their names so quickly...

Of course, that's not a "fact," however much you might like it to be.

It took three days for names to be released, and even then, there was uncertainty. September 14th, 2001:

...and the fact that the PATRIOT Act, an act of tremedendous [sic] detail and scope that would take months to prepare, was ready for passage just days after 9/11.

Again, don't let facts get in the way of your ridiculous statements, LOL.

I hate the Patriot Act too, but the fact is that it wasn't passed for over a month after 9/11. October 24th, 2001:

How do you now, in light of the truth, assess what you formerly proclaimed the "two smoking guns"?
