How can you live inside your skin, knowing that you're part of a crime to deceive the American public about the events of 9/11? Have you no decency, sir?

If there is a cover-up, what makes you believe that an investigation would reveal it? That is, as most conspiracy theories hold, this one goes "right to the top," an investigation wouldn't be similarly tainted? It seems a bit contradictory to jump to the conclusion that the government is covering something up, but that essentially the same government would reveal itself via an investigation; indeed, given the theories about 9/11, an independent investigation would seem unlikely if possible at all. An accurate, open investigation is unlikely to occur for several reasons: 1) This administration has shown an amazing propensity for secretiveness from its inception. Now that we are seeing it classify previously released documents, there is little doubt that any investigating body will be hard pressed to obtain evidence. 2) We have heard several reporters describe the climate of fear-mongering that permeates this administration. Any investigative body will need to be led by fearless, iron-willed individuals, a rare commodity indeed these days. 3) The unwillingness of the mainstream media to challenge this administration on any substantive matter. Without a free, unbiased press, even explosive findings will become duds. 4) The seeming lack of an opposition party allows the GOP to do as they please. The GOP has, over the past couple of decades, learned its intimidation/marginalization/media spin lessons well, while the Dems have practically lain down for them. I believe our best hope for a full, impartial investigation lies with a grassroots internet movement, which will eventually, hopefully, be taken mainstream by a fearless individual of great integrity and, as of now, unknown identity.
