Believe it or not, its Bush's earnest inablity to act quickly and without clumsiness in the face of emergency that convinces me that all of the conspiracy theories are hogwash.
1) If Bush planned 9/11, why did he look utterly fummoxed for so long after hearing about the attack and why did he continue to read the children's story that was made famous in F911? Wouldn't you think that he would have immediately jumped to action and known exactly what to do?
2) Why did he orchestrate this? Oil? It would have been much simpler and cost effective to support the Hussein regime, ot at least continue to tolerate it, in exchange for cheap oil and kickbacks. As we have seen, a war to overthrow a nation "for oil" only serves to gain the opposite effect. Oil is more expensive. We are spending billions in a police action with the
hope that Iraq will get its act together and not implode once we leave. Sweetheart deals with Hussein would have achieved the goal of cheap oil with none of the added cost or American bloodshed.
3) With Osama Bin Laden and Al Quaeda taking credit for the attacks, along with footage of them waiting to hear news of them, they would have had to be in cahoots with the Bush administration to orgabize 9/11.
4) This also means that since Al Quaeda has been attacking the US for neary 2 decades under several administrations of both poltical parties, the United States is run by a nefarious shadow government.
5) Only Chuck Norris can save us now. Yes, Chuck Norris returns!
