1. I've only read forty pages out of over five hundred so far...
How can anybody except speed readers know whether they agree or not? Unless they're taking somebody else's word for oit.

3. Only a few of us will ever read it, but

the media whores are busy spinning it for us, telling us what to think. "Institutions are to blame, not people." Uh, what are institutions comprised of?

2. Also go to cnn.com/wolf, where a different poll

asks if you think the commission reached tis goals or fulfilled its obligations (or words to tha effect) and cnn.com/lou asks if Congress should act immediately on the goals.

Either people are buying the report or there's a massive freep going on, judging by the number of voters agreeing with the report's conclusions.

I keep hearing that there was no knowledge or expectation of hicajking planes to use them as missiles, etc. Hello -- Project Bojinka!!! Years before 911, jihadists were arrested in Manila, where they'd been plotting to 1) hijack a bunch of American planes simultaneously and blow them up over the ocean and 2) hijack a plane and crash it into the Pentagon.

We knew about this, we knew Bin Laden and his jihadist cronies were behind the attack on the USS Cole, the barracks bombings in Beirut, the embassy bombings in Africa, the first WTC bombing, was plotting to kill Bush* at Genoa in June 2001. We got tons of warnings in summer 2001 that they were going to attack soon, and Bush* spent August in Crawford clearing brush? And Bush* thought the first tower must have an accident, a bad pilot?

:grr:
