I really only have one question about the Presidential Debate tonight.
September 27th, 2008 | 750 wordcountDid McCain really say that he was trying to find the truth behind 9/11 and that he was met with much resistance from Washington, or did I fabricate that in my mind?
After I heard that all thoughts went out the window. I couldn’t form a proper sentence. I think I went catatonic…
I still can’t form a proper thought.
This is not an exaggeration. I think of those words he said, and I tremble with rage. I sat in an instant message with Aimey for ten minutes just repeating over and over again “lol… did John McCain really just say…” and re-wording my shock in at least 100 different ways.
He doesn’t know what happened on 9/11? He was met with resistance when he tried to do an investigation into it?
That man wants to keep the truth buried along with everyone else, but he OBVIOUSLY saw the 9/11 Truth Movement getting bigger and larger and gaining more and more popularity… and he decided to capitalize on it. I’m not even saying he thinks 9/11 was an inside job (he probably knows it is), and I’m not saying that he is even implying that 9/11 was an inside job — but he knows that Americans are questioning the official 9/11 story (at least SOME of it), wondering and questioning just HOW our government failed us that day, and John McCain decided to play the “inquiring politician” fighting the majority of Washington to see what really happened on that day — and it makes me SICK. The last I checked John McCains name was NOT “Ron Paul”.
That’s really all I can think about. I’m sorry. I can’t form any more thoughts about the presidential debates right now…
Except — Oh yeah — we can’t have a second Holocaust?
Not likely when, you know, Israel has over 100 nuclear weapons to take care of themselves.
I like how you BOTH bowed down to your master, John and Barack — Israel.
There may be more I have to say later, when I can form a proper thought.
EDIT:
And in case everyone doesn’t know what I’m talking about, this is what was said:
LEHRER: “This is the last — last lead question. You have two minutes each. And the question is this, beginning with you, Senator McCain.
What do you think the likelihood is that there would be another 9/11-type attack on the continental United States?”
MCCAIN: “I think it’s much less than it was the day after 9/11. I think it — that we have a safer nation, but we are a long way from safe.
And I want to tell you that one of the things I’m most proud of, among others, because I have worked across the aisle. I have a long record on that, on a long series of reforms.
But after 9/11, Senator Joe Lieberman and I decided that we needed a commission, and that was a commission to investigate 9/11, and find out what happened, and fix it.
And we were — we were opposed by the administration, another area where I differed with this administration. And we were stymied until the families of 9/11 came, and they descended on Washington, and we got that legislation passed.
And there were a series of recommendations, as I recall, more than 40. And I’m happy to say that we’ve gotten written into law most of those reforms recommended by that commission. I’m proud of that work, again, bipartisan, reaching across the aisle, working together, Democrat and Republican alike.
So we have a long way to go in our intelligence services. We have to do a better job in human intelligence. And we’ve got to — to make sure that we have people who are trained interrogators so that we don’t ever torture a prisoner ever again.
We have to make sure that our technological and intelligence capabilities are better. We have to work more closely with our allies. I know our allies, and I can work much more closely with them.
But I can tell you that I think America is safer today than it was on 9/11. But that doesn’t mean that we don’t have a long way to go.
And I’d like to remind you, also, as a result of those recommendations, we’ve probably had the largest reorganization of government since we established the Defense Department. And I think that those men and women in those agencies are doing a great job.
But we still have a long way to go before we can declare America safe, and that means doing a better job along our borders, as well.”

I totally, TOTALLY share your state of mind. If this “election” does not drive me to drink, nothing ever will.
I certainly do not agree with Ralph Nader on everything, but a man with integrity and a conscience is priceless, when contrasted with the two corporate-media-selected puppets, Obama and McCain.
I concur.
i havent seen this yet…but when i hear that i might just evacuate my bowels
and how long did it take pay per post to get your blog approved? ive been waiting a week now…
and how long did adwords take too?
Lol, that’s what pretty much happened to me. As a matter of fact I’m STILL sitting here FROM LAST NIGHT not moving repeating over and over again “did McCain really just now tell the American public…” Lulz.
And also: PPP takes a month for approval. As for Adwords.. I forgot TBH.
