This administration's built on lies and hypocrisy. I'd be ashamed to be a follower.

Oops, there's more:
"The Nov. 27 meeting, in which the attorney general and at least five top Justice Department officials participated"

So these five top justices didn't remind Gonzales of this firing meeting? They are next.

Can you say Conspiracy?

I knew you could.

Wow - I'm shocked - Gonzales lied! Quite surprising in this administration. rolling eyes

What's the deal - how many lies does it take for Congress to really rise up and stop them! This is impeachment territory, subpeona territory, stop all bills until we get the truth and accountablility and start listening to the American people again!

And it's really shows a huge lack of any type of integrity that the Republicans in Congress still, after all this, aren't outraged. They'll support Bush even with all the lies, even with all the corruption - to me, that shows they're all just like Bush.

The bin Ladens%u2019 Great Escape
How the U.S. helped Osama's family leave the country after 9/11.



ill Carter, the FBI spokesman, is adamant. "We were given full access to the individuals on that plane," he says, "and we were satisfied that we did not believe any of those individuals had anything to do with the 9/11 plots."




The plane to which Carter refers was an aircraft chartered by the Saudi government in the days after the terrorist attacks. The individuals were two dozen members of Osama bin Laden's extended family who had been living in the United States. Saying they were afraid that family members might suffer retribution in the U.S., the Saudis asked for American assistance in getting them out of the country. With the help of the FBI, the Saudis and the bin Laden family chartered an aircraft to pick up family members in Los Angeles, Orlando, and Washington, D.C. The bin Laden plane then flew the relatives to Boston, where %u2014 one week after the attacks %u2014 the group left Logan Airport bound for Jeddah.

A BBC programme aired on Tuesday made a startling revelation that Federal Bureau of Investigation agents probing relatives of the Saudi-born terrorist Osama bin Laden were told to go slow soon after George W Bush became the president of the United States.

The BBC's Newsnight said Bush at one point had a number of connections with Saudi Arabia's prominent bin Laden family.

The programme hinted that US interests in the huge Saudi oil reserves blunted the probe into the terrorist connections of several individuals.

Newsnight said Bush made his first million 20 years ago with an oil company partly funded by the chief US representative of Salem Bin Laden, Osama's brother.

The programme also revealed that Bush and his father received fees from Carlyle Corporation -- a little known company that became one of America's largest defence contractors -- in which the bin Ladens held a stake, which was sold off after the September 11 terror attacks.

realpatriot, your claim about the bin Laden family being flown out is false.

And you are full of sh*t because I remember when it happened and I mentioned it to my wife.

We have a liar in the white house tell the truth or get off the board.
