Oh that's right, George Bush is white so racism is not possible. I guess we'll have to chalk it up to sheer lunacy.
I don't have much respect for THOSE people either.
Some people just can't/won't admit when they've lost.

I think there WERE legitimate questions about the vote count, but I don't buy the "rigged voting machine" conspiracy. In regards to the vote count however, once the Supreme Court made its decision, as far as I was concerned that was it, and Gore did the right thing in accepting it. Now, it DID raise valid concerns about whether or not we should be using the popular vote instead of the electoral vote - but that's a WHOLE different issue and would only apply for FUTURE elections.

You are correct.
According to a Rasmussen poll. 35% of democrats believe that GWB knew of the attacks beforehand.

So you're of the opinion that "knowing of the attacks beforehand" is equivalent to "perpetrating 9/11," which was your claim?

A lot of people may have taken the security briefing about "Bin Laden Determined to Strike" as knowledge, right? So you have no idea if the claim you made is true. In fact, it's pretty much guaranteed to be wrong.

If you believe that you should also note that 15% or so of Republicans (1 in 7) believe that GWB knew about the attacks as well.

Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election. (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/general_current_events/president_bush/22_believe_bush_knew_about_9_11_attacks_in_advance - broken link)

As I said though, I think it's a BS stat. One poll means nothing, that's why the pollsters do SO MANY election polls.

If there is any truth to this, then he needs to be removed. IF he truly isn't a natural born citizen, then the lie he pulled off would be far worse than Lewinsky or Watergate....

Eligibility issue to follow Obama into Oval Office
Anything to continue the fund raising and to keep the contributions coming in. After all the attorneys have families and college tution bills etc.

Are you serious making this post? Do you know anything about Berg the lawyer who is behind one of the suits against Obama? This is incredible absolutely incredible. He also filed a suit saying Bush and Cheney knew about 9/11 and is one of the 35% Democrats you are ridiculing. He is a Democrat and a Clinton supporter.

9-11 CONSPIRACY
9-11 CONSPIRACY

AFP TALKS TO MAN BEHIND SEPT. 11 RICO SUIT



By Greg Szymanski

Philadelphia lawyer Phil Berg has never tried to climb Mt. Everest. In the past, he�s always attempted �legal mountains� within his reach. But since filing a 2004 federal RICO lawsuit against President Bush and others for complicity in 9-11, the Pennsylvania attorney finally knows what it�s like to try to scale the world�s tallest peak.

�I thought it was going to be tough, but I didn�t think this tough,� Berg told AFP from behind a mountain of legal paperwork in his one-man Philadelphia office. �I am undermanned, overworked and under-financed, but still optimistic that justice will prevail.

�Either our government made 9-11 happen or let it happen. I am going after them for foreknowledge, failure to warn and actively covering up the crimes they committed.

this is absolutely hilarious this post. You are calling your hero a fringo lunatic without knowing it.

Bots keep this one in your file it is one for the ages.

Hmmmm Phillip Berg, love him then hate him now? Hate him then and love him now? Just a fruit cake then and now?

Philip J. Berg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philip J. Berg (b. April 13, 1944) of Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania, USA, is a former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania [1], a 9/11 conspiracy theorist, and an activist attorney who brought a RICO lawsuit charging president George W. Bush and 154 others with complicity in the 9/11 attacks, and another suit challenging the eligibility of Barack Obama to become President of the United States.

Yup, those folks are making money off the idiots who keep funding it.
Kind'a like all those folks selling Bigfoot or Area 51 books.
There are always silly people willing to buy-in to any "mystery". Their existence doesn't lend the "mystery" any legitimacy.
