I was away from the internet an entire week!!!!!!

[devilgrrl]

Because I was in New Orleans enjoying the Jazz Fest. Looks like the only things I missed was more bullshit from the Bush Crime Family and Corporate media. Oh wait! The runaway bride story... :eyes:

Is there anything I missed that is worth noting? Or is it just the same old shit but different day?

3. The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions by David Ray Griffin

The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions--University of Wisconsin, Madison
David Ray Griffin, Prof of Religion at Claremont School of Theology, Claremont CA

"9/11 and the American Empire: How Should Religious People Respond?"

This was a devastating report, mostly of all the stuff we Internet readers have been aware of, like the "puts," like the dissolution of the towers, like the lack of skill of the hijacking "pilots." But the powerful and quiet way he put it all together, and then for it to appear on TELEVISION, was just jaw dropping!

C-Span is reportedly rerunning it this Saturday May 7 at 1:30 pm EST (not sure if it is C-Span 1 or 2, probably C-Span2.)

It lasts 90 minutes, and you will want to tape it, as it is so shocking to have all this information spoken aloud, you will want to go back and see it again, as well as share it.

Sounds like you had a good time. Oh, and Bush's press conference broke into the networks' May sweeps schedule at the last moment. AND...Laura Bush clobbered George with pre-planned "jokes" at the White House press dinner Saturday, a sign of their real desperation. He did NOT look pleased.

The GOP may talk about compassion and values, but the Dems know how to "DU" it! ;-)
