* On Saturday, May 7 at 2:30 pm, booktv (cspan2?) will be showing the david ray griffin speech on The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions from University of Wisconsin in Madison. watch it. LINK
* "One of the wilder stories circulating about Sept 11, and one that has attracted something of a cult following amongst conspiracy buffs is that it was carried out by 19 fanatical Arab hijackers, masterminded by an evil genius named Osama bin Laden, with no apparent motivation other than that they "hate our freedoms."" LINK
OTHER STUFF
* stevenroach: "I am not a believer in conspiracy theories. But the Fed’s behavior since the late 1990s is starting to change my mind... The rhetorical flourishes of America’s central bankers have dug the US economy -- and by definition, a US-centric global economy -- into a deep hole. To this very day, the Fed has never confessed to the Original Sin of condoning the equity bubble. " LINK
* "Today the government, the media, and therefore much of the public have come to accept the condemnation of our country's actions by Amnesty International and the like as business as usual." LINK
* "The bill is just riddled with perversity: We continue to subsidize people who buy Hummers, but no longer grant tax rebates to those who buy hybrid cars that are more than six times as fuel efficient. This is not how you get to "energy independence." " LINK
* lehrer is saying 'the new spending bill means that the repugs have spent $300bn fighting terrorism'. please. shut. the. fuck. up.
* "Have you ever wondered why the same story appears in 15 different newspapers on the exact same day? Is it because each of those 15 newspapers has reporters that happened to come to the same conclusions and use the same sentences and language on the very same day? Of course not. It's because they all subscribe to a central news clearing house called the "Associated Press" or "Reuters." And these news clearing houses decide what news should make the wires for that day. " LINK
