Yup. I almost fell out of my chair. Blitzer said he was going to have him on to explain.

LOL, sorry... They did a piece on Sen. Keith Ellison, where he gave a statement comparing 9/11 to the "Reichstag Fire".

Me too! I was so shocked at first, but now, it just makes me laugh... To think a black Muslim Senator agrees on certain views of 9/11 with Alex Jones!!!

Well, it didn't exactly go that far. Blitzer made the point that Ellison was not saying our government did it. I'm looking foward to the interview of Ellison though, that's for sure.

No dude, don't read into what I'm saying, just read what I'm saying... Not too many people outside of Alex Jones, compare 9/11 to the "Reichstag Fire"... That's all I mean, no more, no less...

Wow, Did he explain what he meant by that?

Also, I kinda feel sorry for McCain, his campaign is sinking like the titanic.

Actually, scratch that. I dont feel sorry for McCain. I feel sorry for the people who donated money to McCain. They've pretty much wasted all their money.

Here is an article about what he said:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2007/07/keith_ellison_goes_overboard.html


"It's almost like the Reichstag fire, kind of reminds me of that," he told applauding atheists. "After the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it, and it put the leader [Hitler] of that country in a position where he could basically have authority to do whatever he wanted."


"I'm not saying [Sept. 11] was a [U.S.] plan, or anything like that, because, you know, that's how they put you in the nut-ball box -- dismiss you."

Looks like they were talking about 2Q not the first. CNN states he might have a debt of 1.75 millions making his cash on hand only 250,000!

is this the same McCain who took a leisurely stroll through a Bagdad market and tried to lie to me and the American people about how Bush's war was succeeding??..with all due respect - this guy lost my trust a long time ago...he needs to drop out and go back to his congressional duties...

Thanks for the find, I got side tracked looking for other stuff... That clarifies it.

LOL :D , as much as I try to stay positive... Unfortunately, the truth for us is, bad news for other candidates is good news for Ron Paul! Plus, we have excellent moderators here for people like myself that post threads in a rush, were they don't belong. :(
