If Clinton pardoned Puerto Rican "terrorists" it wasn't to get votes for his wife. That's the sort of malarkey spread by so-called "conservative" radio talk show hosts who bank on their audiences being ignorant of both current events and history. Doing that would lose Hillary at least 2/3 to 3/4 of the New York Puerto Rican vote. Bill Clinton is politically savvy enough to know that Puerto Ricans are divided into 3 basic camps: pro statehood, pro status quo and pro independence. Any terrorists would likely be for independence which is the smallest of these three groups, quite small in fact. All pardoning those sorts of criminals would do would be to piss-off the bulk of Puerto Ricans who are divided almost exactly equally between the pro statehood and status quo factions. My wife told me this, she's from Puerto Rico and she and her whole family are for statehood.
The depression era president to whom Prometheus refers, who brought full employment to his nation, is not Franklin Roosevelt but Adolf Hitler who in addition to being a vegetarian, a teetotaler and a charismatic orator was also a lover of animals in a sort of PETA mode. He delighted in horrifying his dinner guests by showing footage of grisly executions but cried if an animal was injured. brrrr!
I'd rather have the bourbon too! Roosevelt gave that gift because Churchill, amongst his other sterling qualities, was a heavy drinker. We declared war on Japan, Larry, then Hitler declared war on us. He thought we would have our hands full with the Japanese and he also dismissed us as a "motley collection of Irish and Jews", not a real nation like Germany. One of the few instances where he actually honored a treaty.
Dunno what he meant about the airliner into the Pentagon, I don't think there's any doubt that an airliner hit the Pentagon.
I'm going for a ride now...don't think I'll come back to this thread again.

Ahnold content: Ahnold was born in Austria just like Hitler.
[/IMG] Rendition of approx. size of plane to building. Tail section about 4 stories high, etc. That's a lot o' plane. Keep in mind that this is a hardened building, reenforced walls, etc, and that this is an airframe covered with stressed aluminum sheeting.(hardly a penetrator)[IMG]
[/IMG]After the collapse. I see no debris field. I see no chunks of anything. The early released photos showed the "round hole" that, according to the "official story", the plane supposedly folded itself into an origami "square peg" and squeezed itself into. Funny, but I would have expected to see a "knife-slice" through the upper two stories where the tailfin slammed into the building. Actually, as these crafts are not armoured or built for this type of heavy duty work, I'd have expected to see the whole, snapped off tail section lying on the lawn, glistening in the morning sun. A large plane is not going to disappear like this. The impact of the wings against the walls would have slowed it's momentum considerably, and would have shortly stopped all forward movement. So where's the rear end of the plane?
