A day in a life of a 9/11 conspiracy theorist.

OK we have a conspiracy premise for the attack on the twin towers, which is to go to war with Afghanistan, now we have to cover for the other attack on the Pentagon and the Capitol.
As fare as the Capitol is concerned, I already have an idea for that. Lets say, Bush just wanted Congress out of the way so he can assume supreme power over the country. Sounds good to me. OK now people help me make up some conspiracy for the attack on the Pentagon, What could Bush benefit from that?

I want to know something. We have all these stupid as* democrates who are blaming Bush for the high gas prices but the thing is he has a way lower them big time! But yes we might destory the eviroment up there but it will help lower gas prices big time. And yes there are also Hybrds(sp?) but I am preety sure not every American can each afford a good hybrd(sp?) Other wise I am preety sure there is no other way to lower gas prices. So democrates, why are ypu blaming Bush for no reason?

I cant afford an attorney or I would have one, and no I dont know why Social Security declined me. But I do have all of my medical records and so do they. I feel stuck!!! Is there anyway I can get a case hearing soon, even before they schedule one? Or do I have to wait on them?

Were you aware of this tactic? I wasn't

I heard this on Charlie Rose tonight when he was interviewing Kissinger. They said that when you want the public to support military action against a country that you first dehumanize them then demonize them.

I was like OMG that finally put it into words for me. You see this everytime we are about to go to war. IE, as soon as N.Korea started testing weapons, all of a sudden propaganda came out about their leader being whacko = demonize

Or Iran.. propaganda that was an incorrect translation of his speech stating '.. holocaust never happened...' = demonize.

Or propaganda about how all of Islam wants to kill Americans = dehumanize.

WOW I AM ON TO SOMETHING HERE!!!!

Anyone else ever heard this?

...the republicans are now saying that we have found WMD in iraq?

Do they not realize that mustard gas that old is compleatly useless and at most could only give you minor burns if you have prolonged contact with it?

Are these the weapons we went to war over? Expired mustard gas that has been sitting in the desert since the mid-1980's, are those the WMD's?

I'm a student senator with SGA at Florida State University. Our SGA seal and the FSU seal both have three torches in them. You can find both at http://sga.fsu.edu/ the SGA one is obvious, the FSU one on the bottom right.

The licensing department has issued us a copyright violation type thing when placing our seal on a bus we provide for the students and on a newspaper bin thing that provides free newspapers for students.

They say we need to change our seal because the three torches are from the FSU seal and we need permission first. This comes as a surprise to us since we've had the SGA seal for decades.

I was wondering how valid this claim was. The torches are not even identical or anything, and if you check out fsu.edu, they're changing the FSU seal torches to a more graphic look.

Also, the FSU seal is pretty old. The first time the torches show up in the seal is back in 1901. The seal has changed, but the torches haven't really.

Can we argue this or is it simply a violation?

I recently purchased a bar in a not-so-safe part of town. I am NOT planning to run the bar, but will need to visit frequently to make repairs or pick up the rent. I am thinking to get a conceiled weapons permit so that I can carry a firearm when I travel to my bar to make repairs, but I'm not certain if I'm allowed to take it inside even if I have a permit.

Is it legal for me to carry a conceiled firearm inside a bar in Texas if I am the owner of the establishment?

Wasn't this another Bush lie for padding his Texas defence contracts with American lives...A lot of soldiers die in ten years like Vietnam you know. Maybe the Chinese will get invloved again, do you think it's another set up for Americans?

Illegal use of foreign intellectual property was a common business during the Soviet time; not much has changed since then despite economical reforms in Russia. Plagiarists are now as before re-writing and publishing under their names professional manuals and handbooks. Piracy of software is seen as normal business.

We have the hispanic wellness fair in which over 30,000 people attend in fort worth. We have the hispanic back to school events....etc and the public officials and target/walmart are big supporters. When we have a african american wellness fair its like 1000 people and very little community support. Talk about racist. Its the hispanics in Texas who are racists. They are now the majority. how bout helping others verus just helping your own kind out. how about calling it the back to school childrens event or the people of all color event. Its funny how people who say others are racists are often being racists themselves.

Who is going to rebuild Iraq? Bush with his own money? Or he is not going to give a *** about that and left the poor iraquians without home and city?
