The 9/11 Commission *was* flawed, right from the get go.

What an idiot. 9/11 was on a Tuesday.

Wow, Ralph. I voted for you in 2000, but come on...

So wait, now I'm a crazy conspiracy theorist for thinking the 9/11 Commission was yet another laughable example of the government investigating itself and finding no evidence of wrongdoing?

Give credit where it's due: Nader's right on this. He's not saying anything particularly wacky.

Huh, and I thought Ralph Nader couldn't possibly get any more lame.

Guess I was wrong.

huh, looks like every other jackass on here so far thinks that ol' Nader must crazy like a cuckoo for that statement...
um, how 'bout if the new one of you turkeys comes right out and unambiguously says that the 9/11 Commission *wasn't* flawed from the get-go so that we know what you're trying to get at here...
can you handle that, d'you reckon?

i'll be damned if i'm a-gonna tell you all how it happened, but i sure as hell don't think there's anything nutty about suggesting that the 9/11 Commission was flawed as fuck.

lemme clarify one thing from my last post (#7) -
"every other jackass" means like odds n' evens "every other";
it wasn't meant to mean something like "every other poster besides me".
just thought some of you might have a hard time picking up on that (and i have a pretty good idea which half!)

the modern conservative movement has been insanely effective at creating an environment of the discredit. to see liberal slog readers discrediting both nader and 9/11 "truth movement" as wacko or nonsense just shows how well they've created this atmosphere of anti-intellectualism.

A question - which will not be addressed - for the ever so smug Mr. Constant (and anybody else who is similarly incompetent) :

It would appear that by suggesting we "take him seriously" now, you would be ridiculing Mr. Nader's suggestion that the 9/11 report was flawed.

Given that the people in charge of said report are now on record as saying they, too, think the entire process was flawed, it would seem to me that you would ridicule them as well.

And if you're choosing to ridicule the very people who were in charge of the report to begin with....tell me, which leg are you standing on now?

He's absolutely right that the 9/11 Commission was hamstrung by Bush from the start. You know, I like Ralph Nader so much more when he isn't running for spoiler candidate. If only he could cleave his heart in twain, throw away the worser half, and live the better for it.

Once again Nader is attacked by idiots for speaking the truth. Nothing new here.
