Attack-Terrorism Governments Catastrophes USA

Kucinich on House Floor: “A Pattern Of Recklessness, Indifference and Callousness, The Implications of Which Have Been Deadly

Washington, Mar 2 -

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH) gave the following speech today on the House Floor:

“I would like to call to the attention of the House the juxtaposition of two news stories:

“One, relating to 9/11, that states, the federal officials were repeatedly warned in the months before the September 11th, 2001 terror attack that Osama bin Laden and Al-Qeada were planning to hijack planes and use them for suicide missions accord to a new report that the Bush Administration has been suppressing.

“And this, from the front page of today’s Washington Post, a newly leaked video recorded of a high level government deliberation the day before Hurricane Katrina hit shows disaster officials emphatically warning President Bush that the storm posed a catastrophic threat to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast and a grim faced Bush personally assuring state leaders that his Administration was fully prepared to help.

“Do we see a pattern here? September 11th and Katrina—they knew something was going to happen and they did not act. They knew that if we invaded Iraq that we looking at a disaster. They know that global climate change poses a threat to the entire planet and they have not acted.

“A pattern of recklessness, indifference, and callousness, the implications of which have been deadly.”

  • I am a BIG FAN of Dennis’s BUT THESE ARE NOT NEW REVELATIONS AT ALL! AND THE 9-11 INFO HAS BEEN OUT THERE A HELLVA A LOT LONGER THEN SAID! The evidence about 9-11 was out there about several warnings about 9-11 and VERY few Congress people wanted to either believe it or are in denial of it! The story about 9-11 warnings is NOT NEW, PEOPLE! AND IT SHOULDN’T HAVE SURPRISED PEOPLE, WHEN BUSH LET THOSE PEOPLE PURPOSEDLY DIE EITHER, BECAUSE HE HATES AMERICA AND OUR PEOPLE, UNLESS YOUR A CEO OR RICH! HE PURPOSEDLY LET THOSE PEOPLE DIE IN KATRINA SO HE COULD CONVINCE CONGRESS TO GIVE HIM MARSHALL LAW AUTHORITY! THAT IS WHY HE LET THEM DIE ON PURPOSE, SO HE COULD SAY SEE, CONGRESS, I WANT AUTHORITY TO CALL OUT GUARD IN CASES OF EMERGENCY! GET A CLUE, DENNIS, WHILE I LIKE YOU ALOT, THE NEWS ABOUT 9-11 IS NOT "NEW" BUT BEEN OUT THERE ALL THE TIME! WHAT IS NEW IS THAT THE SAME OLD PNAC GROUP IS PLANNING MORE ATTACKS ON U.S. I BELIEVE AS WE SPEAK AND GONNA BLAME IRAN FOR IT, JUST AS THEY BLAMED IRAQ FOR 9-11 WHICH WAS BUSHIT, NOW THANKS TO OUR POLITICIANS PUTTING ISRAEL FIRST, INSTEAD OF AMERICA, THEY ARE PROBABLY GONNA ATTACK U.S. AGAIN TO GET SHEEP IN OUR COUNTRY BEHIND ANOTHER NEEDLESS WAR WITH IRAN, WHEN ALL THE TIME BUSH AND COHORTS ARE IN BED WITH REAL TERRORISTS, SAUDI ROYAL FAMILY AND BIN LADEN, TOO!

    • Tis true congress lives in a bubble but Dennis is trying to wake em up so cut him some slack eh?

      Did you see the video? It is really good.

      I agree with your passion. If only we had stopped these sick bastards sooner, we could have prevented all of the senseless deaths in the aftermath of Katrina. I knew these guys were evil but I never would have guessed how low they could go. Of course after 9/11, it is obvious they are capable of anything.

      But They are going down THEY ARE GOING DOWN! and I don’t think they will try anything now because everyone is expecting it and already questioning the official story about everything. Everyone would immediately point the finger at them and blame them. Especially after the selling of our ports!
      Of course you never know with these madmen!
