9-11
Unforgotten, Part Six: Free Fall
This
is the sixth installment in a planned set of ten Raging
Pencils comics, each addressing facets of 9-11 I deem
sorely underevaluated.
Now, please scoll down to Mike's Video Vault and immediately
watch MIT engineer Mike King's assessment of the collapse
of
the towers.
-----------
Yes, the Twin Towers fell WAY too fast. If you're curious
about the mathematics you'll find a very exacting investigation
of the phenomena here.
And here's a bonus technical tidbit you might
find interesting... the external sheathing of the
building was just
framed
glass,
it was structural steel members placed about 1.5
meters apart. The steel used in these members was
thicker than the armor on WWII Soviet tanks. So
just imagine how robust the central core must have
been.

The funny thing about the combative
comments I've been receiving as a result of this
particular series
of comics,
all of which have been reposted in the circular
file, is that they all say the same thing... "No,
don't listen to this man. Come with me instead
and I'll show you the truth."
My response is "Sorry, but we've had the 'truth'
rammed down our throats
for
the past ten
years. I prefer to believe my lying eyes."
What these people are really saying to me is "Shut
up. Be quiet. Maintain the status quo. Don't rock the
boat. War is peace. Up is down. Drill, baby, drill!"

Republican Job Creation Update
"We're
going to have a relentless focus on creating
jobs." -
John Boehner, February 10, 2011.
The following is #77 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.
(77) 9-6-2011: Michelle
Bachmann has a brilliant new answer for
lots of high-paying jobs... slash the corporate tax
rate to zero.... except corporate America is already
paying an effective rate of zero. Even so, job
creation is down
the dumper. Back to the Etch-A-Sketch, Michelle.
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.

Dump Fox News
And
what manner of lie is Fox News spewing today? They've
edited a James
Hoffa speech to make it seem like
a call to violence. Those little scamps.
