The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions
David Ray Griffin

Description: David Ray Griffin takes a critical look at the official 9/11 Commission Report put out by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. Professor Griffin argues that the "omissions and distortions" in the report amount to a cover-up by government officials and says that the available evidence suggests that the Bush administration was complicit in the 9/11 attacks (either by ignoring known threats or through actual participation in the planning of the attacks). Professor Griffin asks a series of questions which he says have been either inadequately answered or completely ignored by the commission. These include questions surrounding the attack on the Pentagon, the way in which the World Trade Center towers collapsed, and the behavior of President Bush and his Secret Service detail following notification that a second plane had hit the WTC. The talk was hosted by the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth (www.mujca.com) and took place at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Includes Q&A.

Author Bio: David Ray Griffin is professor emeritus at the Claremont School of Theology, where he taught for over 30 years (retiring in 2004). He has authored or edited over two dozen books, including "God and Religion in the Postmodern World," "Religion and Scientific Naturalism," and "The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11."

6. There are so many things they need to divert our attention from

Where to start?

Gannon's WH Logs, *'s (lack of) manliness, public opinion AGAINST the nuclear option, House GOP backing down on the ethics changes, Ressam's sentencing delay, rising gasoline prices, Gore's MoveOn speech yesterday, Bolton, the list goes on and on.

7. I must have missed that.

Do you have a link? What explosion? Also, if it's on c-span, how many people watch c-span? A few of us political junkies, but the average joe/jane is probably clueless.

That said, I too am wondering what is up with this speech. Q & A is (besides debate) his absolute worst forum unless from hand picked sycophants. And I doubt the press will be too sycophantic tonight. They know his poll numbers are tanking & will surely be more inclined to ask tough questions. I am madly curious as to what rove's strategy or reasoning is.

As far as some comments I've seen on DU that dumbya is declaring Marshall Law or something. No way. If his polls were good & people were scared, perhaps. No way in hell a prez w/approvals in the 40's (at best) is gonna get away with jack shit.
