&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-290275&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;fahrender @ 184 &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;and by the way, i find things every day that don’t make sense to me. wouldn’t get anything done if i stopped to investigate even .0001% of them. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;let me know when you’ve got it all sorted out. let’s see, possibly it was a turf battle between rumsfailed and deadeye. rummy wouldn’t share, so deadeye went after him with an iranian missile chalabi slipped him when nobody was looking. and rummy hasn’t spoken to him since….&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OK fahrender…if you can’t find even one thing about the events of that day that doesn’t seem right and you’re only into elections, then you must know Brad Blog and his fight against voter fraud and election irregularities. Check out his 9ll coverage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bradblog.com/?cat=66&quot;&gt;http://www.bradblog.com/?cat=66&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the 1st post is fluffy so scroll and check the whole category)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Brad and his posters know the whole 9ll event was the biggest fraud and we can’t break the GOP fear grip until we face the fact that the events of that day was just a cover for the Darth/Rummy/PNAC Coup d’etat!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Cujo359 @ 178 - September 11th, 2006 at 4:02 pm &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m working on a reply and will get back here ASAP, but you should look at the BradBlog thread for some enlighting information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I did fiind it interesting that most of the mythbuster sites you link and others I’ve already researched, all seem to reference the Popular Mechanics article (MAJOR ad revenue from the US-DOD/Military-Industrial-Complex profitteers and owned by Hearst)&lt;br /&gt;

…written by Michael Chertoff’s (DHS) cousin. Just an observation. *wink&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;now you’re confusing me with someone else. you’ve got to stop multi tasking. i don’t know how to do links……….&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-289321&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;fahrender @ 173&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;
you’re asking me to be a forensic investigator, if not an engineer, physicist or scientist, and i am of those. not only am i not trained for it, my mind simply doesn’t work that way. if what you have said is true, why isn’t there a hue and cry from the scientific/engineering community about this? i am capable of scepticism and i have no compunction or reluctance to believe our government could do something truly evil. they’re already doing it. and we know it. but the part that we know is the part that they’re doing so clumsily that it’s easy enough to ferret out. for me to believe what you seem to want me to believe you must show me something tangible, not something that isn’t there. the JFK conspiracy theories, at least some of them, are plausable. they don’t require the mission impossible technology or massive numbers of people in on the doing. if no plane crashed into the pentagon, what happened to the flight crew and passengers that died or disappeared? how many employees of the airline had to be in on their diappearance for no one to know about it? and so on. i’m focused on this election because it is soon and it is truly impossible to solve the problems of your preoccupations in the time that remains before november 8th. sorry, you’ll have to do better than that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I only asked that you find one thing that doesn’t make sense to you. I stated mine and you asked a different. If there is no wreckage the answer isn’t “then where is the flight crew and passengers”. Frankly that’s an easy question…they’re all with the wreckage which isn’t at the crash site. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the towers ‘pancaked’ then you’d have a ’stack’ of floors. Not ‘pulverised’ dust. And it would take time for each floor to give, maybe a 1/2 second per floor, for lets say 80 floors, it should take over 40 seconds to completely collapse. Watch the video again…they take less then half that. PLUS, structrual steel columns do not pancake and if they buckled the building would have tipped over. They were cut in handy portable pieces: &lt;a href=&quot;http://thumbsnap.com/v/qyXTftwL.jpg&quot;&gt;http://thumbsnap.com/v/qyXTftwL.jpg&lt;/a&gt; Controlled demolition by the best equipped in the world. Or we can talk about WTC7.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you didn’t lose me, bud abbott, i mean lou, i went on to more important things…..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and so where are the wreckage, flight crew and passengers? maybe somewhere on the back forty at Camp David?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;“Osama bin Laden is still alive. There’s only one reason why. George W. Bush put Saddam Hussein above getting our greatest enemy, and avenging the deaths of those innocent souls killed on 9/11. There’s nothing else left to say.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pardon me for pointing out that those responsible for causing 9/11 are the architects of Ammurrkan Foreign (and domestic) Policy. When do we get to go after them?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Greetings Taylor Marsh,&lt;br /&gt;
Things are kinda quiet here today at FDL and on the blogosphere in general, and understandably so, as people try to make sense of what happened on 9/11 and in the 5 years that have passed. Sometimes we may feel overwhelmed by all the crap that has piled up and feel a greater  sense of distress with each new revelation of Bush’s latest atrocity. Tomorrow is another day however, and we will go to work, raise our kids, love one another and continue to work to right the wrongs of this administration.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;All but a very small handful of Democrats in Congress are also responsible for the tragedy that has continued in Afghanistan. Who do you know amongst the Dems who has stood and spoken against this appalling negligence? The reality, it seems, is that very few in this country give a fuck about anything but this country. We were attacked; we bomb from 50,000 feet; we leave. The Dems were, and are, just as filled with the same specious rightiousness as the folks across the aisle. They also see America as THE MOST among countries, always fair and just. In no way is any progress going to be made in tarring only the fools in power at the moment. They only have the room for manouvering that we grant them through our indifference. The Dems have been, with apallingly few exceptions, cowards for not standing up to the sorcerer’s apprentices currently running the Executive branch; and please, not controlling Congressional committees does not deprive one of one’s voice. They have been, to use an analogy from a time currently in vogue in GOP circles, like the people who saw their Jewish neighbors taken away and said nothing because it might compromise their own safety. But then, maybe I’m aiding the enemy by intimating shortcomings of my own people. Afghanistan and Iraq are two wars that were overwhelmingly supported by all but very few politicians and citizens in this country, and until very recently there was little or no criticism as to how they were and are still waged. Politicians worry about the next election cycle; citizens worry only about the price of gas. Where is the gushing over blue thumbs; little girls going to school? Where were the Dems who should have and still could call bullshit on this kind of sanctimonious patting ourselves on the back? Where are the Dems showing what we have actually wrought in these two countries? No, Taylor, nothing will change if we only change the asses that warm the seats of power. We need to change, and that’s not about to happen. We like our A/C too much. We don’t do commitment; we don’t do protracted struggle–it’s inconvenient.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;I don’t intend or desire to make political hay on our nation’s open wound&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the contrary, that wound makes it imperative that you/we raise hell about the politics of 9/11 and the War on Terror.  We’ve let them redefine ‘political’ as a perjorative; it’s actually the process by which democracies govern themselves.  People take positions, and advocate policies, and pass judgement on how their leaders are doing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Without that kind of debate, we’re supine and utterly powerless.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Cujo359 @ 176 - believe what you want…&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;see you when your head is out of the sand:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh, gosh, now that you’ve said my head was in the sand, I’m totally convinced of my folly. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;
where’s the wreckage and body parts at the Pentagon? (since I seem to have lost fahrender)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.911myths.com/html/757_wreckage.html&quot;&gt;http://www.911myths.com/html/757_wreckage.html&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That, by the way, was from one of the sites I’d already linked to. Your lack of curiosity on this subject is breathtaking for someone who feels the need to lecture folks about how stupid and oblivious they are.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Speaking of which …&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Oh yeah you better remember…part 2 of the ‘truth’ is on tonight. Don’t forget to Tivo ABC.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Sure you haven’t taken enough opportunity to use &lt;i&gt;ad hominem&lt;/i&gt;?
&lt;p&gt;In fact, your arguments are the same ones the right wing jackasses use to explain why we’re wrong about Iraq or the War On Terra or whatever they’re sure we should be obsessed with. Anyone who decides to check into things himself and realizes you don’t have a leg to stand on is stupid, deluded, doesn’t realize the true danger, etc. I’ve provided links for you to look at. You could go to the main pages of those links and answer just about all your questions. You could check out the links pages at those sites and find many more places that would answer your concerns. Instead, you engage in the sort of rhetorical devices cranks use when they don’t have any real arguments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As for the picture, it has an interesting caption: &lt;i&gt;Views: 289  Date: July 30, &lt;b&gt;2006&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
