a rare political entry

[tiggz]

dude. is this for real? people honestly believe that our government orchestrated 9/11? this is truly the first i've heard of this. i'm at a loss for words. do i trust our government compeletely? no. do i believe that they always have our best interests at heart? no. do i think they killed thousands of people on september 11th for some unknown reason(i'm assuming they're saying it's because the president needed a catalyst for war)? abso-fucking-lutely NOT! how ludicrous is this? really. do any of you think this? if so, please do respond with why you think it's a possibility. i'm truly interested to understand why you would think our government would do something like this.

also Charlie Sheen's comment about the planes "not looking like any commercial jetliner he'd ever seen" is just completely and utterly laughable. what a fucking moron. is he an airplane expert?

this is about as political as you will see me because arguing politics never ends well. i just couldn't get over this though. outraged. that's a good word to describe how i'm feeling.

thanks for the explanation about Futures. i get it. however, someone can tell me something until they're blue in the face. i tend to not accept it as fact until i see it for myself. so someone saying that i can find all of this out by looking at Bloomberg data doesn't sell me until i see physical proof of said data. i'm a visual learner. can you tell?

i don't doubt that there was murmurings that something of this nature could happen. like i said to someone else, though, we as a nation were just so overconfident and ignorant that nothing like that could ever happen to us. i mean, i know it happened and i still have a hard time believing it because i never feared for my life. we don't(or didn't) have to worry about suicide bombers and the like because we assumed our government was doing everything in their power to protect us. we were wrong. i don't think this was some malicious act by our government though. i think that they felt just as secure as the american public did. since the attacks, i do take issue with the lax security and other things like the attempt to sell our ports to the UAE. i think we're being ignorant in the name of political correctness.

anyway. thank you very much for your viewpoint and for the lesson on Futures.
