5. You got that right.

And there's much more than just the strange coincidences of 9/11. Coincidences which include, but are not limited to, his charity tournament that morning on Offutt Air Force Base which spared some WTC executives, Bush's flight to Offutt, a Buffett executive jet's tracking Flight 93, Buffett's interest in a flight school used to train hijackers, and in the preferred bank of the hijackers through which to move funds. http://www.geocities.com/killtown/buffett.html

Buffett's name also surfaced in the Franklin cover-up of the late 1980s, which is perhaps the most deeply buried scandal of modern American history:


The Franklin Credit Union scandal centered in Omaha opens a window into the hellish world of child abuse and organized drug trafficking patronized and protected by powerful figures in politics and business. This awful but true story is about the abuse of positions of public trust, the Cover-up by institutions of government, and the abhorrent conduct and Cover-up by some of our wealthiest citizens. The unfinished business of the Franklin investigation is not only a matter involving children from Nebraska, but the lives of untold numbers of children everywhere.

In the Foreword of the book John DeCamp asked his friend Bill Colby, "What do Ronald Reagan, President George Bush (Sr.), former CIA Director William E. Colby, Democratic presidential candidate Bob Kerrey, billionaire and second richest man in America and now head of Salomon Brothers - Warren Buffett, and Ronald Roskens, the current administrator of the Agency for International Development, all have in common?" Colby replied, "I give up, what could that group have in common?" DeCamp answered, "Three things, all of them a burden at times for those who have to carry them. The three things are me (John DeCamp), a case called Franklin, and a man named Larry King."

Lawrence E. (Larry) King was the manager of Franklin Community Federal Credit Union, when it was raided by federal agencies and shut down. Nearly $40 million was missing from the coffers of the credit union, as the financial scandal turned into something more. It became known children from Omaha and its surroundings said they had been flown from city to city to be abused at parties held by Franklin's officers, well-known Nebraskans, and Republican activists.

2. One Positive Thing...
...is that we could probably give free electricity to a small city like mine (Waterville, ME) for a few weeks from the great FDR spinning in his grave!

4. Womanizing? FDR wasn't exactly faithful to Eleanor
But if you have ever seen a picture of Eleanor, you can probably understand.

6. Warren Buffet, man of inside group
Warren Buffet is one of a few people who knew 911 attack in advance. He hosted a charity benefit inside the high security Offut military base in the morning of 9/11. Attending are several executives from the World Trade Center thus Buffet might have saved these top ranking business people from a disaster. A feast in the morning was unusual and the place- military base, was unusual too.

Quote, "So where was Warren Buffett the morning of 9/11 and what was he doing?

Mr. Buffett was reportedly at his home in Omaha, Nebraska watching TV when he heard about the terrorist attacks. He was getting ready to host his "last annual golf charity event" which just happened to be at the U.S. Strategic Command headquarters located at Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha. Offutt AFB is, coincidentally, where President G. W. Bush flew to on Air Force One later in the day for "safety". This early golf charity event hosted by Mr. Buffett was to include celebrities, professional athletes, and a small group of business leaders in which one of these business leaders became a very lucky person.

This very lucky person was Ann Tatlock, the CEO of Fiduciary Trust Co. International. Now what made Mrs. Tatlock such a lucky person for being invited to this charity event that morning? Mrs. Tatlock not only works in the World Trade Center, but her offices were right where Flight 175 crashed into the WTC 2.

So was it just a coincidence that the 2nd richest man in the world was hosting his "last" annual golf charity event that particular morning at U.S. Strategic Command headquarters and what are the odds that a CEO was invited who's offices were right where one of the hijacked airplanes crashed into?
Some immediate questions that arise from this charity event:
1. Who choose that date for this charity golf event to be held on a Sept. 11th and when was this date set? Is this "annual" golf event always held on a Sept. 11th?
2. Who were the celebrities, professional athletes, and the rest of the business leaders that attended, why were they invited, and who invited them? Did any of the other CEO's invited to this charity event work at the WTC?
3. Why was this the "last" annual golf charity event Mr. Buffett was going to host?
An interesting angle about Ann Tatlock's company, Fiduciary Trust Co. International, is that President Bush's nominee to head the panel that's investigating the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, Thomas Kean, used to serve as the company's director which has a lot of wealthy clients.

7. that Fiduciary Trust - fmr. NJ Gov. Thomas Kean link
is a 'it's a small-world ain't it' tidbit

didn't someone report that Buffett had several of his private jets in the air that day? were they taking invitees to Offut AFB?

one would think that releasing the invitation list and attendees would be no big thing

I'm sure the Gov't knows (via PROMIS software) who did those stock transactions on 911 eve, too.

We'll they do the honest thing, and tell us the truth?

8. Yes Warren, I have hope, hope that I grope women
FDR gave me hope that I could live in a nation without fear, and thanks to Mr. Roosevelt I have my social security. Arnold isnt a bad man IMO, hes not a nut head like some of the right wingers are but hes no where near FDR, no president except maybe JFK has come close to what FDR did in inspiring the nation.
