   When the doubts about who orchestrated 9/11 get loud enough, and the question becomes "What about 9/11?", will the answer "9/11" still work?

   Oh a political cartoon,..
   it has been a long time
   since we last saw one of these,..

   Brad we thought you were going grumpy on us.

   Did anyone see the Lou Dobbs segment about Colbert’s bush roast,.. Dobbs took comments from media types,.. this ultra conservative radio host
   Martha Zoller said when she saw Colbert the first thing that came to mind was the events of 9/11.
   How 9/11 is synonymous with Colbert is beyond reason ?????? The witch is pro-bush,.. was grabbing at straws to inject the negative,… and she pulled 9/11 from her posterior end.

   The reason the conservatives (what’s that?) are anti-bush is that he is the Flip Flopper in Chief (link here).

   Interesting that this cartoon has the legionary’s helmet. I was just watching the film Gladiator last night (extended version – hell, I don’t even know what the added 17 minutes was!) Brilliant film, and so easy to make the comparison between Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix’s character) and our emperor-with-no-clothes. A man who sends others to battle and glorifies in war, but never particpates in the action, only stands on the sidelines and reaps the rewards. A man childlike in his vision for himself and the empire, wanting to destroy the senate, believing that the people (the mob) will deify him so long as he satisfies thier bloodlust. This movie was made in 2000 – very prophetic.

   Where is our Maximus?

   Phoenix nearly won an Oscar for that roll and he sure deserved it. I saw the comparison to Bush too. Great movie!

   Kids, y’all can play, too…

   "Why didn’t you do your homework?"

   "9/11!"

   "What’s that boy doing in your bedroom, daughter?"

   "9/11!"

   "Aren’t you in bed yet?"

   – you know the answer

   I emailed this gif (from the Doonesbury website) to so many people I think I’m now a spammer. It has become a classic in a day. Thanks, Gary!

    Less than half of Americans satisfied with 9/11 investigations

    RAW STORY

    According to a new Zogby poll, less than half of Americans are convinced that that the events of September 11 have been thoroughly investigated, RAW STORY has learned.

    In the telephone survey of 1200 individuals, just 47% agreed that "the 9/11 attacks were thoroughly investigated and that any speculation about US government involvement is nonsense." Almost as many, 45%, indicated they were more likely to agree "that so many unanswered questions about 9/11 remain that Congress or an International Tribunal should re-investigate the attacks, including whether any US government officials consciously allowed or helped facilitate their success."

    The poll is the first survey that has attempted to gauge the level of Americans’ doubts about 9/11 and was carried out for the "9/11: Revealing the Truth, Reclaiming Our Future" conference to be held in Chicago in June.

    Not surprisingly, Republicans as a group were the most supportive of existing investigations, with 70% expressing their satisfaction — about the same percentage that has expressed approval of Bush’s performance in recent polls. Sixty-four percent of those earning over $75,000 were also skeptical of doubts about 9/11. The groups most likely to want the attacks re-investigated were Hispanics at 67% and African-Americans at 64%.
