How is it possible that the National Military Command Center, located in the Pentagon and in contact with law enforcement and air traffic controllers from 8:46 a.m. did not communicate to the Secretary of Defense also at the Pentagon about the other hijacked planes especially the one headed to Washington? How is that Secretary of Defense could have remained at this desk until the crash? Whose responsibility is it to relay emergency situations to him? Is he then supposed to go to the war room?"

The White Rose

For all those people who think anyone who naysays the government is treason. Conservative prowar freaks like Michael Savage and O'Reilly would probably have supported Germany given the context of them being alive and born in Germany. Support the government no matter what! (sarcasm)

The Basics -- Beat a speeding ticket to keep your rates down

"No one keeps an exact count of how many speeding tickets are issued each year, but one estimate puts the number at about 14 million. Most of those nabbed admit their guilt and either pay a fine or take advantage of a re-education program to mitigate or erase the effect of the ticket.

U.S. Prepared to Pay 'High Price' to Oust Saddam

Let's see how we pay the price. WE pay for the war. The corporations get rich off of rebuilding. We lose our freedoms under the guise of "liberating" Iraq.
