of course the "oil cabal" bulloney just shows how ignorant you really are....

Really? You really don't think that there is a very wealthy cabal of oil companies that are backing Bush 100%? Who do you think they back, the Green party and Ralph Nader? You are obviously a very naive person and have no idea how the world really works. Yes, big oil interests and the Bush family are very closely intertwined. They are some of his biggest supporters and he does their bidding as he is doing by taking us to war against Iraq.

As far as Bush leading us through 9/11... LOL! Bush read to school children while the country was experiencing an unprecedented terrorist attack. The military couldn't/wouldn't even scramble planes to defend DC until AFTER the Pentagon was hit (over an hour after the WTC was it). Some leadership. Somebody was asleep at the switch on 9/11. The question is: was it done deliberately so they could increase defense spending by $50 Billion, implement all sorts of other security spending and go on conquests for oil in Central Asia and in the Middle East? Or was it just plain incompetence. In either case, the leasdership on 9/11 was horrible. Perhaps if the U.S. military wasn't engaged in so many countries around the world, they could actually do what they are suppossed to do and defend this country from an air attack like 9/11.
