But it is not he article I was thinking about.
I have searched and searched and can't find it anywhere on the internet. I printed it out at the time, and somehow have seemed to have misplaced it. It was hard core on all the work that Al Gore had done on terrorism threats and that he had handed it to the infamous Condi Rice and she threw it in the trash. It basically predicted how they were going to pull off 9/11 as a distinct possibility.
And which airport they would use because of the extreme lack of security that airport had compared to all the others in the nation Gore had investigated. He wrote about all the FBI agents in Phoenix alerting headquarters about Flight Schools calling them, warning them about mid-eastern students that were in their school, and only studying the flying of the plane, not take offs and landings which were 90% of their curriculum. And how Louis Frei?, head of the FBI, threw away the many alerts they were sending to him......

I didn't realize that Pitt was blacklisted for his criticisms of Democrats. DU has slapped my hand and deleted my comments daring to even question a democrat's actions......even with it being a constructive criticism......

I have a lapel button from the 60's that says: "Question Authority" I took crap for it in the 60's and just look where that attitude has gotten us in the time since........
