    Oh I've read it, I was interested to see your comprehension. I'm not surprised you're unable to recount any of it. But since you're willing to play :) How long does it take a jet liner to fly 20 miles? Do you think this young man would actually have had time to leave the room and return in the time it took for the aircraft to fly 20 miles or would he have been in and out every 30 seconds? Does that sound plausible to you? CS – Number 15; What is the meaning behind the following quote attributed to Dick Cheney which came to light during the 9/11 Commission hearings? The passage is taken from testimony given by then Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta. During the time that the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President, “The plane is 50 miles out.” “The plane is 30 miles out.” And when it got down to “the plane is 10 miles out,” the young man also said to the Vice President, “Do the orders still stand?” And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, “Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?” As the plane was not shot down, in addition to the fact that armed fighter jets were nowhere near the plane and the Pentagon defensive system was not activated, are we to take it that the orders were to let the plane find its target?

      It takes about 30 minutes for a jet like that to travel 20 miles. Seriously lame.

        What, when it's taxiing? :laugh: You're saying that a commercial airliner cruises at 40 miles an hour. Sorry friend, that's totally incorrect. According to Wikipedia[^] the cruising speed of a Boeing 737 is 485 mph (that's 780 km/h for anyone outside of the USA) which means that it'll cover about 8 miles a minute. Therefore, it takes just a little over 2 minutes to cover 20 miles.

          That is 40 miles and hour. The last 737 I travelled in went about 500 miles per hour.

              This is Christo Garcia's first place winning adaptation of Charlie Sheen's script "20 Minutes with the President."[^] Scores of great hard-hitting factual information is contained in this entertaining and award-winning masterpiece. Charlie Sheen himself picked this as the #1 video of his script.

                  I don't even bother doing that with you anymore, because you NEVER address the points that people raise, and when it gets too uncomfortable for you ( usually by post 3 ) you start abusing people and telling us we need to 'think for ourselves', something you never appear to do. I've addressed the points with you so often, it's a waste of time to pretend you might actually comprehend them, this time.

                    Wow - do you really believe a plane could travel that slowly and still stay in the air ? On what basis does that mean we should even bother trying to talk any sense to you ?

                      When you think you know the best thing for the nation, I'd recommend actually knowing how to address the executive, I won't even hold you to judicial or legislative, but at least the executive.

                        You of course realize that this so-called "masterpiece" is nothing but a rant by Charlie, disguised as a FICTIONAL interview with Obama. So I don't see why it should have any more credibility than any other actor ranting about something they may or may not understand.

                          We have missile defense systems designed to locate and shoot down a missile before it hits. You better damn well belief we can shoot down a jet in less than 2 seconds, let alone 2 minutes. Especially if it is headed directly to the heart of the war machine, the pentagon, which is quite close to the white house.

                                  You must be insane. Seriously. You thnk those missiles are always armed and ready ? You think that someone is constantly alert, day after day, for such a threat ? Really ? The biggest issue you conspiracy morons have is the ways you overestimate your government.

You think that someone is constantly alert, day after day, for such a threat ? Really ? The biggest issue you conspiracy morons have is the ways you overestimate your government.

                                          You of course realize that this so-called "masterpiece" is nothing but a rant by Charlie, disguised as a FICTIONAL interview with Obama. So I don't see why it should have any more credibility than any other actor ranting about something they may or may not understand.

                                          He's an actor, of course he'd write a script and hope people think it's real.
