The Ultimate Response to the "Bush Knew" Smear (RNC please take note)
Source: Me | 05/17/2001 | By Laz

Okay people, I don't usually write one-line vanities, but I have what I consider the Ultimate Rebuttal to the smear that Bush knew about September 11 in advance.

Osama bin Ladin bragged that not even all the hijackers
knew where they were really headed.

If the actual perpetrators didn't know what was going to happen,
HOW WAS GEORGE W. BUSH SUPPOSED TO KNOW?

There you are, kids. In two sentences, this horrible smear by the DNC is destroyed. Take it it, run with it, hit the airwaves, write letters to the editor, go on the radio, get this message out.

Wasn't it Osama on tape chuckling about how most of the hijackers didn't know that they had hijacked a flying bomb? That was a big joke to him.

If all of the hijackers knew in advance what was going to happen to them, they would have spent way more money at the Strip clubs. Hey, why not run up your credit card debt on lap dances when you know you aren't going to be around to pay the CC bill?

Nice to see ya writing an effective 2 line response......saving all yer energy for the honeymoon I suppose :o)

As to this fiasco that GW knew this or that I say , Yes he did know !......

I knew also, you knew too and every couch potato from Kalifornia ,Kissimmee to Kalamazoo knew the warnings too (if this too suessisian fer ya just say so :o)

Every night since the Gulf War we have been promised that Iraq or Iran (is that spelled with an N or a Q ?) agents would try and blow something up here in CONUS. All during Bubbafucco's reign of domestic terrorism on the sheeple we were seeing such attacks as the WTC bombing in the parking lot. Intel both HUMINT and not has been collected and sequestered by every alphabet agency in the world and stored in some goobermint bean counters desk .

Now these Monday Morning Quisling No-Quarter"rats" are coming outta the woodwork in a mid term election feeding frenzy doing their best with data , bits and pieces that even collectivly and placed in proper sequence "prior" to the 9-11 event would have been dismissed as a fantasy of some whack risk managers SWAG..........

With properly dissected and arrainged intel reports ,after the fact ,I can prove the Pope hisself had prior knowledge of this atrocity and did nothing to stop it.........

Albeit your two liner is short and to the point when having to splain this latest cow pie the Clintonista Cowards have dropped in the path to the voting booth, I just wanted to post my two cent's on the matter.........

Stay Safe and don't get sand in your........awww never mind . Have a great time Laz !

So there you have it. End of story. All of the leadership in DC is innocent as always.

What a terrorist operation, the actual perpetrators didn't even know what was going to happen. Those planes had eyes, and orders.

Silly. Since 1995 the CIA and FBI had known about the hijacking plans. In fact they were pretty sure in 1998 that the targets would include D.C. and New York.

It would have taken a single, inexpensive step in order to prevent the attacks: Arm pilots and flight crews and train them.

The typical government response to any crisis like this is to assume that everyone outside of government is stupid, unable to defend themselves, and should be stripped of their freedom in order to preserve safety.

This paradigm is damning for Bush and anyone else who has held the office with that belief system.

Hey, look, you got one right! It was a great terrorist operation. OPSEC was tight. Only 4 pilots knew what was really happening, and the majority of the actually perpetrators didn't even know what was going to happen.

This was confirmed by inference in the letters found in Atta's belongings, and by direct statement by Osama bin Ladin in a videotape after September 11.

What the hijackers knew was irrelevant. Can you list even one step taken by the Bush administration which was directed at the prevention of hijackings?

Yep, I said the same thing on another thread. Glad you posted it to its own thread maybe Rush, Hannity, etc. will pick it up. As someone else pointed out, some of the DUh's actually think the video tape is fake but then they are idiots. Congrats on the marriage and if you are Freeping on your honeymoon, you better be glad you married a Freeper.

"Beck read from the MTP transcript and there is NOTHING being reported now that wasn't said FOUR DAYS AFTER THE EVENT!"

The dims are in real serious trouble for the fall elections, so they're still slinging silly putty at a teflon wall, just hoping by some mere chance it will stick!

No it isn't. Since this is a debate, by the left, of what Bush knew, it is absolutely pertinent to point out that not even the perpertrators knew what was going on.

Can you guys help get this talking point out there???

Already done.

From the Rush Limbaugh program Thurs May 16:

RUSH: By the way, folks, just something here that might prove a little disheartening to those of you on the left, this just a reminder from Diana Schneider, the editrix of The Limbaugh Letter, the nation's most widely read political newsletter, even the hijackers didn't know their ultimate target until D-Day. Osama bin Laden said so on one of his tapes. The only way to really guarantee the success of the operation from his perspective was to not even tell the agents involved what they were doing. Some of them didn't know, when they got on those airplanes, that they were suicide missions. You remember that? Now, in the hijackers themselves didn't know that they were going into their own martyrdom and going to meet those 70 olive-eating virgins up there, how was anybody in the United States supposed to know? They didn't even know themselves. Osama didn't tell them. Yet we're supposed to have the ability to figure it all out from a couple of FBI reports out of Phoenix.

I agree, but there are many threads already in existence for that debate. This thread is intended to give a Sound Bite refutation of a Democrat political play. This thread is strictly about partisan politics, playing the game, and winning the game.
