Both are tasteless. They are attempts at black humor that we're not in the mood for around here. Does anyone really think they were intended to be taken seriously?

Not guilty of what?
sedition?
of possessing a video camera to record poems?
paying pensions to families grieving the loss of the breadwinner?
or many more innocent stories hiding a greater truth?
Innocent till proven guilty but answerable as we all are for our actions.

On the one hand I hate to keep this silly thread open ... on the other, it is the perfect place to post the following message. I receieved this one among the many Emails going around, prayerful, patriotic, fearful etc ... this one seems to agree with Mc Gruff, but with a twist:

High level Justice Department sources revealed today that FBI investigators want to talk to Gary Condit yet again. This time they wish to find out what the CA Congressman knows about the World Trade Center (WTC) and Pentagon terrorist actions. This latest, highly secret investigation adds fuel to the fire of discussion surrounding the report that Chandra Levy's body has been identified as one of the ones recovered from the cockpit section of the WTC wreckage. It has been rumored that Chandra has been working in a double agent capacity for a splinter group of Islamic militant organization, Hamas as well as working for the Israeli human intelligence collection service, Mossad. It is also widely known that Chandra has been studying for her commercial pilot's license. To date the FBI has not released a statement regarding the identity of the hijacker pilot, but neither have they denied continued reports that it is indeed Chandra Levy.

...more news as it becomes available.

I think this thread may be a troll. I thought we agreed that we would not respond to trolls. Well, if Jack The Sailor, Amos and Troll can respond, then so can I.

To McGruff: This is not funny. It's people like you who give all guests a bad name.

I mean, has he ever lied to you before?

If he WERE guilty it is pretty obvious a little moral directive from the Koran wouldn't stop him from lying through his teeth, innit?

Thank you for providing a very good example of the type of thread which should be ignored. I'm sorry I couldn't see that from the title.

Osama bin Laden has stated that he did not commit or mastermind the events of 9/11.

That's good enough for me because the Koran forbids lying.

The question then is who did do it?

One possibility is certainly Gary Condit. It is well known that Barbara Olsen was after him every night on Larry King. That won't happen anymore. Larry hasn't even mentioned Condit since 9/11.

Another possibility is the Israeli government. Since 9/11, the world is coming around to their point of view on dealing with terrorists. Maybe they knew that would be the result.

In any case, it's now obvious that Bush is off-base in trying to blame righteous Moslems like Osama.
