"Mr. Chairman, I have a question"

[RBHam]

I don't think the Democratic Party deserves Cynthia McKinney...

Although the American people were deprived of an on-the-record answer about who was running the wargames which paralyzed official response on 9/11, Cynthia McKinney let it be known (on the record) that we knew and would not forget. As she found a way to get her question on the record, she gave us all a priceless Kodak moment: one that ranks right up there with the reaction I evoked in public from then CIA Director John Deutch in 1996.

The point here is not that 9/11 is suddenly back on the table, somehow available for resolution and justice. It’s a long way from a question from a junior member of the minority party to an impeachment, conviction and imprisonment. The election is still over. The compromised Keane Commission has still closed its doors. No further investigations or legal proceedings are pending. The media has still moved on and the court system and congress are still willfully impotent.

But courage endures. And as long as there is someone like Cynthia McKinney on Capitol Hill there will be moments - wonderful moments like the one captured on the attached video - which prove that we have not gone away or forgotten and that we still have the will to speak.

For those of us who spent years investigating 9/11, the research and evidence we have compiled will always be within arm's reach, awaiting these golden moments. As new threats and challenges overtake us and demand our focus in "the now" we stand ready to jump on any miracle that presents us with an opportunity to remind the world that murderers still walk free, still in power. Like blades of grass growing steadfastly up through the sidewalk we will never surrender our ability to speak truth to power.

God bless Cynthia McKinney. - MCR

1. She doesn't care if she's ridiculed.

She knows that she's right and that they know she's right.

2. CM - a goddam national hero.

3. wargames which paralyzed official response on 9/11

The real question should be... "How in the f**k did these seemingly uninformed individuals know that we were running frigging wargames on that exact G**damn day??? Who would like to wager that we had a mole, or that someone we trust with just about every piece of information that concerns our national security was involved in a leak of some sort. This pisses me off to no end, it really does, and everyone responsible just skates.... what a wonderful chessboard they have constructed for themselves... all the men are the same color... imagine that.

4. Watch the video...

Those who still deny M/LIHOP should study Rummy carefully - his reaction to McKinney's question will leave no doubt these rat bastards have something to hide.

5. Her district should be proud to have her back in Congress.

6. I notice the absence of the usual smears against McKinney ...

The Neo-Cons and their media henchmen are silent on McKinney - they don't want to draw any attention to her these days.

I wonder why?

7. I've seen that video twice

I've seen that video twice and I don't see the part where scummy gets flustered. He looks like the same arrongat b*stard he always looks like, above the law.

Why did Skelton get to ask scummy a direct question after CMK was denied hers?

[RBHam]

10. you kiddin' me? the whole room goes abuzz...

rummy turns to his aides, papers are shuffled, voices are raised, the chairman Duncan Hunter can barely keep his eye from twitching as he tries to move the dialogue away from the subject...

the now KNOWN FACT that Rummy was aware of and involved with the operation of 4 seperate war game scenarios involving hijacked planes should be quite a revelation, you'd think...

it's all quite eye opening and I wonder why this clip wasn't shown more prominently on CNN...

sarcasm intended.

11. This is the first I've heard of it.

But I still don't see scummy himself get flustered, it's like he knows he's protected, (he obviously is) and let's the chairman run interference for him. I see the chairman stumbling over himself though.

I don't see why CMK's question isn't allowed but Skelton's is. I mean I see why, I just don't see how procedurally they can get away with it.

8. I wonder if Paul Begala cares that there were war games on 9-11...

Or will he crawl under the desk again in shame over McKinney being a member of his party?

9. I hope that one day

I will get a chance to vote for, and help elect, someone of her caliber as my congressperson.

A True Patriot, she is.
