Open Letter To Boxer: A gift audio clip of Condi
by Don Anderson
Monday Jan 17th, 2005 11:02 AM
Dear Senator Boxer, Thanks for standing up for the election challenge, it took a lot of courage to do that, I hope you have more where that came from. I've read that you are gearing up to battle Condi's appointment- if you really want to ask her tough questions, I have a gift for you. This audio excerpt of a speech Condi gave 6 months after 9/11:
http://la.indymedia.org/uploads/condi-terrible_accident.mp3

After seeing the first plane hit, Condoleeza's "first thought was, what a terrible accident."
Ms. Boxer, let's review the facts:
  • Condoleeza Rice received numerous warnings that something 'spectacular' was going to happen, one warning even mentioned 'hijacked airplanes'.  The indications of a pending attack were so numerous and credible that Richard Clarke said his 'hair was on fire'.
  • Of course everyone knows about the August 6th memo titled: Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the Us
  • Then just 5 days before 9/11, former Senator Gary Hart, Chair of the Hart-Rudman commission on terrorism, told Ms. Rice there was an 'inevitable threat' of a terrorist attack.
As Condi explains in the audio clip, she saw the first plane hit the tower and thought is was a 'terrible accident' - then she went to a staff meeting! This is worthy of a question at the confirmation hearing.

The whole world saw the 2nd plane hit and watched the ensuing tragedy unfold, but our National Security Advisor, who just had received numerous 'set your hair on fire' warnings, thought it was a terrible accident and continued about her day. Why? Based on the evidence, it appears Ms. Rice is either lying, or an incompetent fool.

Ms. Boxer, this evidence is clearly enough to warrant a question at Condi's confirmation hearing. Please find the courage to play this 20 second clip of Ms. Rice at the Senate hearing, then ask her why she thought it was a terrible accident. This admission by Condi exposes her complete failure as 'National Security Advisor' on the morning of September 11th. Why didn't she resign? Why on earth should she be promoted now?

Ms Boxer, it is not only Condi that is on the hot seat, but you. Are you a true democrat that will fight for truth and justice, or just another phony like John F'in Kerry? I will take your answer at the Senate Hearing.

Thank you for your time- I hope you are for real, please prove it.
