What a surprise! Always there to believe any conspiracy theory. zappaman Jul 2013 #62

You mean, ''apart from Richard Clarke,'' who would know about such things, like 9-11. Octafish Jul 2013 #68

Where in the video does it say there is evidence that Hasting's crash was not an accident? zappaman Jul 2013 #69

It's a short video. Octafish Jul 2013 #78

Interesting theory. kentuck Jul 2013 #3

What I thought was interesting was that Clarke, a Repug tool usually, said he Cleita Jul 2013 #5

I don't believe Clarke was a ReThug tool. I trust him explicitly. Auntie Bush Jul 2013 #27

I dunno working for Reagan and the Bushes maybe. Cleita Jul 2013 #52

He's the farthest thing from a "tool" of any kind imaginable. Schema Thing Jul 2013 #133

Clark is far from a rethug tool. BobbyBoring Jul 2013 #140

I guess I should. I have a habit of not believing anyone who had anything to do with Cleita Jul 2013 #143

... "I believe the FBI when they say they weren't investigating him," said Clarke ... struggle4progress Jul 2013 #6

Do you think he was saying that it's unlikely that they weren't investigating him Cleita Jul 2013 #7

So it is your opinion whoever regards something as crazy is immediately discredited thereby? struggle4progress Jul 2013 #73

That is not what I said. zeemike Jul 2013 #79

So why do you work so hard to defend the credibility... TheMadMonk Jul 2013 #129

JFC it's been posted like 10 times now. Who HASN'T seen that BS by now? nt DevonRex Jul 2013 #8

Maybe it hasn't been posted enough. Cleita Jul 2013 #9

Whatever. At least you admitted you're posting it after it's been done over and over again. DevonRex Jul 2013 #12

Not as difficult as you suggest. SamReynolds Jul 2013 #149

Has any information been released ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #10

None that I can find. Maybe the investigation has a gag order issued, but it Cleita Jul 2013 #11

One would think some enterprising ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #13

Maybe they are scared considering what happened. Cleita Jul 2013 #18

Really can't much blame them for being scared, I guess. ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #39

Let's not assume, for those who are, that it is the government's nasty work here Whisp Jul 2013 #14

I'm not really blaming government. It could be private enterprises with the ability Cleita Jul 2013 #20

Yah. Wrong kind of accident aquart Jul 2013 #29

Drive a stick shift. NutmegYankee Jul 2013 #25

I drove a stick about half my driving life. I also had roll up windows and no air conditioning. Cleita Jul 2013 #26

Everything else can be electric, but you'll always have control over the engine with stick shift. NutmegYankee Jul 2013 #28

Even an automatic can be shifted to neutral. HooptieWagon Jul 2013 #30

Thank you, octoberlib! Octafish Jul 2013 #91

He might have been mistaken about the FBI investigating him. JDPriestly Jul 2013 #44

I'm not. I'm thinking he knows a lot more than he has said and is putting out some crumbs Cleita Jul 2013 #49

Have you read the article in the NYT about Ernest Hemingway and the FBI? octoberlib Jul 2013 #60

I respect Clarke. H2O Man Jul 2013 #48

It does, but then again fear is exactly what intelligence agencies, and the MIC want Taverner Jul 2013 #64

I don't disagree with you. We were discussing stuff like this since Cleita Jul 2013 #66

I tend to rule out conspiracy theories because the more people involved, the more chance of error Taverner Jul 2013 #72

Whatever - it's frightening n/t malaise Jul 2013 #71

I think it was Elvis who did the hacking. George II Jul 2013 #53

I saw this, and wound up discussing it on Huffpost. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #55

The coroner has verified that the body is Hastings. Cleita Jul 2013 #56

You do realize there are witnesses who saw the car flying down the street? zappaman Jul 2013 #58

There is also testimony from his friend that he drove like a grandma. Cleita Jul 2013 #63

Really? zappaman Jul 2013 #67

I doubt if it was 100 miles an hour or even 80 or 60. That would be impossible to do on a street Cleita Jul 2013 #74

You doubt that? zappaman Jul 2013 #76

Neither do you. The video does not clearly show the speed the car was going. Cleita Jul 2013 #80

Witnesses "WHO"???? - Even "IF" the car did run a Red-light and was "flying down the street"; such laserhaas Jul 2013 #85

*sigh* zappaman Jul 2013 #87

And he timed it at a hundred miles an hour. Sure he did. Cleita Jul 2013 #89

That is what I'm saying ---- tomatoe - tomahto laserhaas Jul 2013 #94

Do you "really" believe (in this day & age) that we can unequivocally "trust" a Coroner's report laserhaas Jul 2013 #86

Putting it that way we probably can't trust anything. However, it seems sensible to Cleita Jul 2013 #88

I think he was driving, but I wonder if the cyber attack meant that someone SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #93

Yes, the trees are so sparse on that street zappaman Jul 2013 #57

There is maybe one tree every other block. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #92

Bullshit. zappaman Jul 2013 #107

So I looked at the street view on Google maps of Melrose of the accident site as Cleita Jul 2013 #113

I did when I drove those 9 blocks this morning. zappaman Jul 2013 #114

Actually doing Google street view when you drive east that seems to be the case. n/t Cleita Jul 2013 #115

Highland does not go east. n/t zappaman Jul 2013 #116

Who cares what direction. I don't. We were actually discussing whether Cleita Jul 2013 #117

You seem lost. zappaman Jul 2013 #118

I was not discussing Highland at all. No one is. Cleita Jul 2013 #119

He hit a tree on Highland. zappaman Jul 2013 #120

And this is important to you why? Cleita Jul 2013 #121

It's important to have facts. zappaman Jul 2013 #122

Yes, because you are always so factual yourself. Cleita Jul 2013 #123

Now you engage in personal attacks zappaman Jul 2013 #124

I haven't attacked you at all. I just pointed out a fact about your posts and reasons for Cleita Jul 2013 #125

LOL! zappaman Jul 2013 #126

Well, I'm happy you are so amused. Cleita Jul 2013 #127

Agreed, zappaman Jul 2013 #128

I was being facetious because of the inability for people to acknowledge something. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #137

No problem. zappaman Jul 2013 #144

They aren't 10 feet apart! SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #136

Okay, so do I, and quite honestly the spacing of the trees is not important when discussing Cleita Jul 2013 #138

I think that the various agencies that claim to have our security in mind are doing far more harm SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #141

I agree. We need to get Barbara Boxer on this too. She will probably try to do something Cleita Jul 2013 #142
