I won't even get into a fruitless agument over the above claims, but I would like to hear those claims substantiated with some sort of evidence or just about anything else for that matter. As it stands now, you could say she's a scumbag because she wears orange slippers and it would carry more water. Basically, it's easy to spew forth quick condemnation, but it doesn't help to build a case, it just makes you look ignorant and spiteful.

So Cynthia McKinney is "unprofessional;" so are our elections. THAT'S crazy. God bless congresswoman McKinney and her vigilance.

Rumsfeld. Now there's a real pro. Loved how McKinney roasted him over the sex-slave scandal involving Dyncorp.

Donald Rumsfeld scares me far more than Bush. Bush is an obvious puppet of the Oil Cartels. Bush is dangerous because he lacks intelligence. Rumsfeld is intelligent, shrewd and will still be in the White House when GW is out to pasture.

9/11 is sounding more like an inside job everyday. I still don’t get how both towers fell straight down as though they were rigged for planned demolition. Let’s face it. A real terrorist would want to do as much damage as possible! Would a true terrorist give a damn which direction the buildings fell?

I swear this whole damn thing stinks more than the death of JFK.

you should probably do some studying in enginering, and the construction of skyscrapers. they're designed to fall straight down, (sort of like when you earthquake proff a structure). buildings don't fall over like trees. lol.

I missed the funny part (i.e. lol)

It is true that I am no Structural Engineer and inclined to take what you are saying about how skyscrapers are designed at face value. I think it would be more accurate however to say that many buildings don’t fall over like trees (rather than all buildings). Earthquake news footage from various countries around the world demonstrates that there are buildings given the proper stress, which will fall down in an unpredictable manner.

Rumsfeld is gone for the moment but let’s see how long he remains out-of-action.

Indeed, it's amazing how those bloodthirsty terrorists would go out of their way to reduce the amount of casualties. First, they hit the towers before everyone was at work.

The Twin Towers were not designed to collapse. They were designed to take multiple plane impacts and remain standing 707's and 767's don't differ much in size. And they remained standing after the impact. For some odd reason, an hour after the impact, one of the towers explodes, sending rubble and steel girders flying horizontally while the concrete starts pulverizing before it hits the ground!

And why hit the Pentagon at the part where it was recently reinforced and where there were the least number of people present? Anyplace else in the building and you're talking thousands, maybe tens of thousands of casualties.

The reason why the towers fell staight down an hour after they were hit is because
the fire burning inside building from the jet fuel eventually heated up and weakened the steel causing them to collapse

[–] philly-17 17 years ago

The towers were hit before everyone was at work NOT because as you sarcastically state "bloodthirsty terrorists would go out of their way to reduce the amount of casualties." Rather, they were hit at that hour for two reasons:

1) Because the terrorists wanted to hijack planes with very few passengers on board so that they would not be overpowered.

2) Because they wanted to keep the terrorist attacks in sync so that the govt and FAA wouldn't have time to react and to prevent the reset of the attacks

With respect to point 1.

With respect to point 2.
-- everyone knows that as the days go on, there is more and more inconsistency with whether or not a flight will be on schedule. So, if one wants to make sure that all of your planes leave as close to their scheduled departure time as possible (so that the attacks can be in sync), then one has a greater chance of success trying to hijack flights that leave early in the morning, since there is less of a chance for delays to build up. In fact, the reason that the 4th plan, one of the reasons credited to United Flight 93 not hitting its target it is because it was delayed by 41 minutes....a bad break for the terrorists; a good break for the people in Washington) --- http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline.jsp?day_of_9/11=ua93&timeline=complete_911_timeline

9/11 is definitely shady, but there are so many crackpot theories out there that it's hard to know what is legitimate and what isn't. Probably the best example of this is that Loose Change video put together by some college kid... and people just eat it up because it tells them what they want to hear.

I have made the mistake of being honest with you.
