US Politicians Who Dared Question 9/11 and Their Fates
1) Robert Torricelli, former Democratic Senator from New Jersey, represented where thousands of 9/11 victims lived. Torricelli wanted a real hard-hitting 9/11 investigation back in 2001-2002. He resigned from the Senate before the Nov. 2002 elections by a media-inspired smear campaign accusing him of corruption. Note: while Torricelli may not have been completely innocent of the charges, the media clearly went bonkers over his case even after he was cleared by a federal prosecutor.
2) The late Senator Paul Wellstone of Minnesota, Democrat, who was a political opponent of the CIA and covert operations. Wellstone pushed for real answers about 9/11. He died in a highly suspicious plane crash right before the Nov. 2002 elections.
3) Cynthia McKinney, Democratic Representative from Georgia, dared to suggest that Bush might have wanted 9/11 to suit an agenda of invading middle east countries. She also said Bush had warnings and wanted an investigation into why the warnings were not heeded. She was widely ridiculed in the media, also smeared for taking donations from middle easterners, and then lost in the 2002 election primaries to a Democratic challenger apparently pushed strongly by the right-wing. The good news is that McKinney won back her seat in 2004.
4) Howard Dean, Democratic former governor of Vermont and Democratic candidate for president during the primaries for the 2004 presidential election. When Dean was on the Diane Rehm radio show in December 2003, Dean suggested that Bush might have gotten warning from the Saudis about 9/11. Dean didn't actually say that Bush had warning of 9/11, merely that Bush's secrecy was fueling conspiracy theories. Nonetheless, not too long after that, the media went bezerk on Dean (after he had the audacity to yell at a post-primary rally) and Dean went down in flames. The good news is that Dean is now a virtual lock to be the chairman of the DNC, a prospect that the elites in the mainstream media and in the Democratic party are upset about.
5) Tom Daschle, former Democratic Senate Majority Leader from South Dakota. He intially pushed for a strong investigation into 9/11 then caved quickly under pressure from Vice President Dick Cheney. Daschle's office was hit by an anthrax letter around this time. Daschle was kicked out of office in a contentious election in Nov. 2004.
6) Senator Pat Leahy of Vermont, dared to question Attorney General John Ashcroft and some of the provisions of the USA Patriot Act. He was sent an extremely potent anthrax letter that was intercepted by the FBI before it reached his office. He was re-elected easily in Nov. 2004.
7) John Buchanan, Republican, ran for president in 2004 as a "9/11 truth candidate". A speech he gave on 9/11 truth is here. Buchanan was completely ignored by the media and lost his bid for Republican candidate for President.
Anyone see any patterns here?
