BUSH CAUGHT IN A LIE ABOUT WTC ATTACKS

I love Whatreallyhappened.com, its hilarious! Its not even semi-intelligent conspiracy theories, just some paranoid schizophrenic who probably doesn't take his meds (you know, because its a conspiracy), banging away on his computer as he constantly peers out of the window between his blinds, waiting for a black van to roll up and several 'G-men' to come piling out. BOO! Man I bet he'd jump 3 feet off his chair and dump a load in his drawers.

And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot." And I said, "It must have been a horrible accident."

Now imagine how adding the lone word "that" would change Bush's statement...

And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw [that] an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot." And I said, "It must have been a horrible accident."

Adding one word to Bush's statement changes it substantially, now indicating he did not literally see the first plane crashing into the tower, but he saw [on the television] that an airplane hit the tower. Considering the many gaffes Bush makes when speaking, one would have to be pretty zealous in their politically-motivated hatred for Bush in order to allow a single word to be the sole basis for the accusation Bush was "lying through his teeth", instead of concluding what it most likely was, a grammatical or linguistic bumble. The next claim is really to deny reality (you know, because reality is a conspiracy)...

Even though Bush is not a very good pilot (he was taken off of flight status for failure to take a medical exam which included a drug test), it would be silly to assume that a passenger jet hitting the WTC in clear weather was pilot error.

Sure, so silly that EVERY MAJOR NEWS CHANNEL initially reported the possibility that an aircraft had accidentally crashed into the WTC tower.

I think the official line is Bush mis-spoke.

Yep, he does that. No big deal...

No, there was no live coverage of the first impact.

The video of the first plane hitting the tower was not live; it was from those two french guys who were doing a documentary on a NYC fire crew. This is the same video that was aired in the 9/11 documentary that was narrated by Robert De Niro. Now, if you really want a conspiracy theory, start wondering at the timing that a french film crew would be doing a documentary of NYC firefighters on that day.

I saw that footage too, it was very troubling. (not that any other footage was not, but that was the first plane)

That site is by some "conspiracy hound", just look at the source:

While many conspiracy theories are pretty out there, I am also not inclined to believe that all politicians tell the truth 100% of the time. Call me crazy if you want.

There is indeed a videotape of the first plane hitting one of the towers. I saw it (I'm from NYC). It looked like it was heading south. The thing with that videotape is that it was filmed by a guy (or girl) that was filming and talking to a cop in the street (in Manhattan). He saw the plane and zoomed onto it. While it is true that the videotape does exist, it became available much, much later than all the other videos. I think I saw it either the night of september 11 or a day later. Furthermore, it was a home video, and it would be hard for the authorities to get it and show bush in such a short period of time when there was total chaos in manhattan. That is, unless there's a secret tape that only he has.
Bush may or may not be telling the truth.

That was a firemen not a cop, and they were there checking out a possible gas leak when it hit. The cameraman was doing a documentary about the life of a rookie firemen when all this happened. One of the men (2 of them, both brothers) was in the 1st building when the 2nd one hit. It was all caught on tape and there was a documentary about the whole thing. Its a very good documentary if can find the name. I know there was a thread about it here when it was aired, maybe someone can remember the name.

I was just getting to work when I heard on the car radio the news that a plane had hit the WTC. I still remember my first thought was that a small private plane was pulling some stupid stunt like trying to fly through them and had missed.
