Well, I'm not crazy and I'm also one the least "tinfoil" type people on this forum, but I have to sadly deduce that one of our own missiles hit that plane.

I agree...the only thing I'm not sure of is what the powers-that-be should have done...confess? Pay the families of the victims? Apologize? Clinton had too much to lose to allow any of that, in my opinion.

Absolutely they should have confessed. What good does a cover-up do? Only two groups benefit if the cover-up succeeds.

First, the military who were possibly responsible for firing the missile. Their first inclination when something like this happens is to run for the tall grass. And in a way I don't blame them. Just look what is happening in the aftermath of 911; the politicians are looking for someone to griddle. Such politicians look at TWA 800 as an opportunity to make political hay.

Second, speaking of the politicians, several high-ranking among them are in charge of our military through various committees. They don't want to look bad.

And so I'll leave you with this thought: politicians are like diapers; both need to be changed often, and for the same reason.

Please, not the Clinton boogieman again.

Bush is President now.
Why is Bush continuing the coverup?

Obstruction of justice is wrong,
even when a Republican does it.
