P.S. ONE LAST TIME, I'm going to say this, and if you don't get it straight I'm going to assume it is because you don't want to get it straight (because it will be the third time).

Hope that clears it up.

I realize you think it is a fact, because you got it from someone else saying it was "a fact" that George W. Bush said it.

Actually I got it from watching him and hearing him say it. I rarely take any one else's word for something. I usually have to see the evidence myself.
So, Bush said it (twice), and his statements create an inconsistency. That's a FACT, not fiction.

Gottago,
I will now qualify my point in running through that simple little exercise in deductive reasoning. When calling something a fact, it should be a fact not partial fact or mere opinion. Partial facts and mear opinion always distort any discussion or presentation. People claiming "facts", not facts, are the reason so many unnecessary arguments to argue take place in these discussions.
It was never about what W said or did not say. If people did not see or hear anything W said, it is not a fact for them. It is only a fact for those who state they saw and heard W say it. Communication stops and confusion sets in, when people claim to have "facts" they cannot actually cannot or refuse to validate.

I never bought the "hologram" thing. That is just silly to me.
I think what bothered me the most was the testimony from the former Director of the FTC saying in his testimony (which was apparently ignored) during the 9/11 Commission interviews.
When he tells them he was standing there with the Vice President and someone was keeping him informed. They came in the room and told him when it was 50 miles out, 40, 30, 20. And finally said, "10 miles out sir, do the orders still stand" The FTC Director says that Cheyney turned around and said (paraphrasing) "Did you hear anything to the contrary?"
That certainly helped convince me at the very least that they knew it was going to happen.

I realize the above is off topic. However, I would be interested in learning how one person gangs up on two or more other people. Gang means more than one person not one person.
