35% of democrats believe that bush knew about 9/11 attacks(26% not sure)

[gardenweasel]

rasmussen poll:

"Democrats in America are evenly divided on the question of whether George W. Bush knew about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in advance. Thirty-five percent (35%) of Democrats believe he did know, 39% say he did not know, and 26% are not sure.

Republicans reject that view and, by a 7-to-1 margin, say the President did not know in advance about the attacks. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 18% believe the President knew and 57% take the opposite view.

Overall, 22% of all voters believe the President knew about the attacks in advance. A slightly larger number, 29%, believe the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. White Americans are less likely than others to believe that either the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. Young Americans are more likely than their elders to believe the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance."

the dem figure i can buy...seeing what i see on a daily basis on the web........but 12% of republicans?.....

i love how bush is simultaneously the stupidest person on the planet, yet the most cunning.....

the best kept secret on the planet, and it's from the bush adminstration?...the one that can't stop leaks of any kind?..... yeah,that one......

differences of opinion are one thing, but trying to steer and protect a nation of clinically insane humans is a whole `nother issue.....

35% believed that he knew....
26% are 'unsure'??

thazzawholelottastupid in one place....it doesn't just reveal paranoia, it reveals a massive dirth of rational thought.....

now i understand why time magazine listed rosie o` donnell as one of the 100 most influential people on the planet....who knew that twinkie binges produce paranoid delusions...


sheeple...

nothing personal, weezer, but you're the definition of sheeple. good sheeple, though. you're loyal, it's just that the people you're loyal to aren't loyal to you. you grow angry because the world isn't as simple as you think it is.

did bush know? coin flip. i'd bet my life his advisers did. i suspect they told him persuaded him that war in the ME was necessary (for israel), and this fit his religious beliefs, so he bought it. fdr engineered pearl harbor, after all. same thing here except bush isn't smart enough to engineer anything that complex. his job's to go out and sell the mass of americans on his level. he's pretty good as a blowhard pr guy, wouldn't you say? a lot of americans are like him. i can see him asking his adviser, "well how do we get this war kicked off?" and them saying, "don't worry, we'll take care of it."

Odigo says workers were warned of attack
By Yuval Dror

Odigo, the instant messaging service, says that two of its workers received messages two hours before the Twin Towers attack on September 11 predicting the attack would happen, and the company has been cooperating with Israeli and American law enforcement, including the FBI, in trying to find the original sender of the message predicting the attack.

Micha Macover, CEO of the company, said the two workers received the messages and immediately after the terror attack informed the company's management, which immediately contacted the Israeli security services, which brought in the FBI.

"I have no idea why the message was sent to these two workers, who don't know the sender. It may just have been someone who was joking and turned out they accidentally got it right. And I don't know if our information was useful in any of the arrests the FBI has made," said Macover. Odigo is a U.S.-based company whose headquarters are in New York, with offices in Herzliya.

As an instant messaging service, Odigo users are not limited to sending messages only to people on their "buddy" list, as is the case with ICQ, the other well-known Israeli instant messaging application.

Odigo usually zealously protects the privacy of its registered users, said Macover, but in this case the company took the initiative to provide the law enforcement services with the originating Internet Presence address of the message, so the FBI could track down the Internet Service Provider, and the actual sender of the original message.

You give Bush way too much credit. I doubt he knew Christmas was coming on December 25th, let alone something as complex as 9/11.

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

You shouldn't find the 35% surprising--almost exact % of Dems that are liberal.

You have to understand the liberal media feeds them--

Time --believes Rosie O'donald and celebraties I never heard of or more important the Pres of U.S.

Newsweek subscribes--

When the NEWSWEEK Poll asked more than 1,000 adults on Wednesday and Thursday night (before and during the GOP debate) which president showed the greatest political courage?meaning being brave enough to make the right decisions for the country, even if it jeopardized his popularity ?more respondents volunteered Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton (18 percent each) than any other president. Fourteen percent of adults named John F. Kennedy and 10 percent said Abraham Lincoln. Only four percent mentioned George W. Bush. (Then again, only five percent volunteered Franklin Roosevelt and only three percent said George Washington.)

Wonder where they are polling

Of course Weasel makes a leap of faith, Wayne supports it, and posts another media bash. Maybe sometime ONE of you could post something original on any of these topics? Jeez...yawn.

There is nothing in the proposed question (unless you neglected to post it, Wease) that suggests the polled people are saying that Bush knew and somehow was behind or knowingly allowed those exact 9-11 attacks to happen. Tenet himself has said - any many others have also said - that the CIA knew something big was brewing along the lines of large scale attacks on America. Tenet said he told Bush specifically that, and Pentagon reports have told of those suspicions before the events happened.

I would think the numbers would be higher knowing what most of us know and admit to at this point, and not pumped up for effect. But go ahead, guys...leap away.

When you have 12 % of Reb's that think it. And 20% of independents. Witch some vote Reb's. Tough to say it's just Dem's. I do think if he didn't know something was up. If he and Rice would have been paying attention they would have.

was it bush that sent the message?...rove?....lol


so,the joos knew,huh totacious?....`zat what you`re sayin`?.....

another episode of "truth`er consequences" folks.....lol

another "loose change"afficionado....great name for a mockumentary because it makes no "cents"(groan)......

and the tanker/freeway overpass explosion in oakland was blown up by bush in order to justify the invasion of the bay area?.....well,that makes more sense.....fascist that he is...


and now they have this nut richard branson showing the "loose change" video on his virgin airlines flights?......

of course,doesn't everyone like watching planes plowing into buildings while flying? ....why not just show snuff films?....one good thing...at least on the planes they have barf bags readily available...

forget beirut...forget the embassy in kuwait....forget lockerbie...forget wtc 1.....forget khobar towers....forget nairobi...forget richard reid`s attempt...forget the cole....forget karachi, pakistan...riyadh,saudi arabia.....amman,jordan.....

forget all these...forget that bush was in office for roughly 9 months...forget that nobody at the wtc had a clue that two of the tallest,busiest buildings in the world had the drywall and insulation stripped away and had virtually miles of wire and explosives planted.....not one person realized........i guess a few cia guys just left some suitcases at critical structural junctures.....james bond would be proud....

and bush was so devious,that he threw in the pentagon and a shot at the capitol...

can`t say nuclear.....but,he can blow up the wtc towers to justify going to iraq.....yet strangely enough, once there,he can`t find wmd`s?.....

given the wtc,the crash/shooting down of united 93, the pentagon, the "stand down" of the interceptors etc... thousands would be involved.....have to be...

yet no one approached to participate in the conspiracy....not one... had second thoughts before or after 9/11?......

"well, someone did, but cheney started shooting people".../totacious.....i kid...lol


and forget that bin laden copped to the act........

this stuff is much like a cholera epidemic... only the weak succumb.....

you guys are literally your own 'jim jones' cult........ you`ve taken the truth and twisted all into a lie to fit your world view and to justify your bds............it is truly scary indeed the number of childish, young, naive, stupid, uneducated goobs there are out there.....


btw..."and fdr engineered pearl harbor"?(i`m hoping you forgot to add a sarcasm tag to this one...please,no more links..i know they`re out there).......:nooo:

welcome to the forum,totacious.....i think...

Not sure, but I think my post still stands...hard to tell who Wease adresses when he goes past the average of 13.6 mini-paragraphs.
