Rice and Cheney were being investigated because they held insurance policies on the commercial properties in the area.Bush had just won a hotly contested election that was decided in the Supreme Court. He was highly unpopular in certain quarters--not least among the federal bureaucracy. It beggars belief that this brand new president would immediately launch the greatest terrorist attack in history against the heart of the financial center of his own country. Even more unlikely that, among the "shitload" of people who "knew" about the pending attack, not one would come forward and alert the news media to the dastardly plans of this weak, hated, intellectually mediocre, rogue president.And yes, I believe GW and a whole shitload of people knew the WTC was going to be attacked.
Of course, those investigations vanished very quickly.
