That such a person, with such a history, was allowed access to one of the US most sensitive and deadly areas of research defies logic, but seeing as how the current administration is also a group of sociopaths, it is possible to see how he wasn''t noticed.

This is starting to sound like irrefutable evidence which linked Iraq to having WMDs...

What a bunch of garbage. More propaganda from the Bush Administration. As for his therapist that was "scared to death" by the good doctor, why did she wait so long to file a report against him and why did she spell "therapist" incorrectly in her own report?

As I said, something does not seem right. Ivans was working on a cure and a vaccine for anthrax, not trying to harm anyone. As far as the sorority girls, give me a break! I doubt Ivans had any time to think about them.

The real terrorists are very much closer to home than anyone realizes or wants to believe. Next he will have child porn on his hardrive and paid for sexual favors from little children. We all know who is responsible for this and yet, here we sit. Obama is NOT against drilling for oil off shore, he is against RANDOM drilling at taxpayers expense that the oil companies are wanting. Get your full stories before making judgments. A vote for McCain is a vote for the insane. I hope the world court can find time to bring the bush administration up on all the charges they so richly deserve & expose and convict the worst of them.

Friends and co-workers all dispute accounts of him being mentally unstable or homocidal. The only sources of this characterization is a drunken social worker and ''anonymous official sources.''

Even the most cursory examination of the case shows that Ivins is probably just a patsy. All evidence against him is circumstantial and there''s evidence that contradicts much of the FBI''s case.

It sure would be nice if the MSM did it''s job other than just lazily repeating the official story time and time again.

The anthrax attacks of October 2001 were obviously carried out by a neocon Black Op team in concert with the team that took down the WTC. The attacks were aimed at two Democratic Senators: Tom Daschle and Patrick Leahy who were holding up the "Patriot Act" out of constitutional concerns. Just as bioweapons researcher Bruce Ivins was about to be charged with perpetrating the attacks, he commits suicide. His convenient death prevents any future investigation into the masterminds of the attacks.

From the article:

Biodefense scientist Bruce Ivins, the FBI''s top suspect in the anthrax-laced letter investigation, was described by his therapist as a "revenge killer."

This is a typical example of the ''librul'' media repeating a claim that has not been proven. Glen Greewald on this ''therapist'':

''So much of the public reporting about Ivins has been devoted to depicting him as a highly unstable psychotic who had been issuing extremely violent threats and who had a violent past. But that depiction has been based almost exclusively on the uncorroborated claims of Jean Carol Duley, a social worker (not a psychiatrist or psychologist) who, as recently as last year, was apparently still in college at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland. Duley''s scrawled handwritten complaint against Ivins, seeking a Protective Order, has served as the basis for much of the reporting regarding Ivins'' mental state, yet it is hardly the model of a competent or authoritative professional. Quite the opposite.

Duley herself has a history that, at the very least, raises questions about her credibility. She has a rather lengthy involvement with the courts in Frederick, including two very recent convictions for driving under the influence -- one from 2007 and one from 2006 -- as well as a complaint filed against her for battery by her ex-husband.''
