A lawsuit that I came across today

This is a damning complaint brought before a federal judge in Eastern Pennsylvania by Ellen Mariani.

Failure to act, failure to prevent, obstruction of justice afterwards are among her complaints, directed largely at the President.

I would highly recommend this reading for anyone interested in 9/11. I am not arguing any type of conspiracy theories here; I’m pointing you to a document alleging that President Bush simply didn’t do his job pre-9/11 and on 9/11 and obstructed justice after that time.

The good stuff starts with paragraph 22. Again, it’s not conspiratorial, it’s just a succinct version of what happened leading up to that day, based on the official record.

The most interesting paragraph of the whole things is as follows:

On July 26 2001, CBS News reported that Attorney General John Ashcroft was no longer using commercial airliners to travel – even for personal business – because of a "threat assessment" issued by the FBI. Instead Ashcroft was using a chartered jet that cost taxpayers $1,600/hr to fly. The news network further reported: "Neither the FBI nor the Justice Department, however, would identify what the threat was, when it was detected or who made it." (CBS News 7-26-2001)
