Anyone with a tad of bonnet should at least wonder about these:

Means and Opportunity Issues: How to Make it Happen
6) Ignored Foreign Warnings
7) Quashed Domestic Investigations
8) Incapacitated Oversight
9) Disabled Air Defenses
10) The Amazing Disappearing National Chain of Command
11) The Pakistan Intelligence Chief Who Loved Everyone At Once
Aftermath Issues: How to Keep the Lid On
12) The Bitter Fight Against Investigations
13) The Amazing Disappearing Evidence
14) The Amazing Disappearing Demand for Accountability


Not to mention the shift of priorities and the budget cutbacks.

First off raymond what happened to your original message? Was it censored by SI Admin or did you erase it? I have dealt with SI BOB in the past and he always seemed fair to me - so what happen to the message?

It was there one minute, gone the next.

I saw william holden in 1984 have the rats eat off his face, what makes you think the same can't happen to you - if Bush has done a tenth of what you claim, he obviously is a very wicked dude that is slicker than a rattlesnake dipped in wesson oil and if you play with fire you get burned sometimes no?

Raymond go watch a 1920's movie called METROPOLIS - realize you are just a cog in the machine and there is only so much you can do - bush already won his 2cnd term, what do you hope to accomplish at this point? You know why I like Jay and a few others here, they try to stay FOCUSED on stocks and all of us making money, the history lessons are nice sometimes, but history is doomed to repeat, the universe is mathematical and determinant like that - so just go with the flow - and lets all try to make money making good stock trades - wether bush and daddy and grandpa prescott way before him have a demon seed in them or not and are spawn of satan does not make me have better trades. You must be very wealthy and have the mega millions I don't - I suppose if I ever get there I will have time to worry about global political events that are beyond my control. Talking about towers going up from a plane or not does not help me make better trades.

How about this, become a world class investor, make billions, and then you will be one of the power players in this world and can do something useful at the top, you wont be a little cog at the bottom that doesnt really accomplish much. Bill Gates didnt give mega money to charity until ted turner shamed him into it, if ted was a poor boy like you i doubt he could have influenced that.

Now since you are such a bush historian I heard he released his PFD (personal financial disclosure) in the middle of may for his 2004 investments - on opensecrets.org I found his 2003 investments, but I have not had time to track down his 2004 - where are they? In 2003 he was invested in some timber land and lots of US treasuries and bonds and even some vanguard funds. What changes did he make to his claimed investments between his 2003 and 2004 PFD?
