9-11
Unforgotten, Part Four
This
is the fourth installment in a planned set of ten Raging
Pencils comics, each addressing facets of 9-11 I feel
have
been sadly
overlooked. This series will appear daily through
the 11th of September.
--------------
It used to be when something suspicious
was occurring with a commercial aircraft an air-traffic
controller could
contact NORAD directly and have them look into it.
This process worked perfectly for decades. Suddenly,
three months before 9-11, it was changed for no reason
except
to make the process much more difficult or, in the
case of 9-11, almost impossible. Funny how that works,
huh?
If you're curious here's more on the "Aircraft
Piracy and Destruction of Derelict Airborne Objects" memo.
Here's where you track Mr. Rumfeld's every
movement on 9-11.
And if you don't know that Flight
93 was, indeed, shot
down, you need to get out more often. Why it was shot down and not the "whatever" that
struck the Pentagon can be explained in one word... "witnesses".
-------------
So far what I've learned during the
creation of these first four cartoons
is that there are
many, many people out there who are trying
VERY hard to make sure no one else reads them. Or,
at the very least, try and dismiss the data as irrelevant.
Let me make this clear... all I'm exibiting here are
the hard, cold facts. The only time I've visited in
the house of conjecture
was when I looked into the eyes of George Bush as he
sat in that stage-dressed, Sarasota classroom and
saw nothing but icy, naked fear emanating back at me.
Of
course, he could have been calculating pi to 700 places,
but I kind of doubt that.

Republican Job Creation Update
"We're
going to have a relentless focus on creating jobs." -
John Boehner, February 10, 2011.
The following is #76 in a list of Republican
job creation activities
since they gained control of the House in 2011.
None, sad to
say,
have
yet to result in one, single new job.
(76) 9-5-2011: The GOP is on a Labor Day break, which
is sort of like atheists enjoying Christmas services
with the Pope, so not much in terms of job creation
is happening. For now, we'll just have to thank presidential
candidate Mitt "Magic Underpants" Romney for hiring
all of the workers who will be laboring to quadruple
the size of his California beachfront
mansion.
NOTE: As a result of an unexpected wave of enthusiasm
for the Republican
Job Creation update now has its
own web site. It will remain on the RP but a web site
of its own will raise its visibility on the 'net as
we progress towards the critical 2012 elections. And
I thank you for your support.
